I am a committed, compassionate, and caring man. I am a patient listener and a deep and authentic sharer.
The most important three things to me are God, love, and family, in both this world and the world to come. I profoundly believe that with the right person marriage can be a fortress of well-being.
I have been vegetarian for 35 years, vegan for 30 years. I am a man of deep convictions, self-disciplined, trustworthy, and reliable.
I have an undergraduate degree in mathematics and a graduate degree in computer science. Also, I went to medical school, but withdrew during my clinical rotations because of traumatic circumstances.
I live alone in the Blue Ridge Mountains of southern Virginia with my three small dogs, Faith and her two sons Gentle and Courage (see picture). I teach in human transformation and healing.
I love to sing, dance, and run in the mountains. I am romantic and affectionate. I love with my whole heart ❤️

I have been a vegetarian for several years. I love outdoor activities especially during the summer such as hiking and swimming. Traveling is also one of my interests. I have traveled to South America, Mexico, Germany, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Lichtenstein and Turks and Caicos. I also enjoy seeing movies, reading books, going to concerts and going to museums.
With a bachelor's degree in biological sciences, I worked at first as a lab technician in an environmental lab. Eventually, I received my nursing degree and now work at a local teaching hospital.
I am very family oriented. I try to respect and get along with my parents.

I am a relatively down to earth and peaceful person. I am a yoga teacher and I love cooking whole food plant-based foods. I am a relatively sensitive person. I enjoy strolls in nature and organic gardening. I’m interested in meeting a like-minded friend and potential partner, for positive and life nourishing activities.

The Weakest Arguments
1. But everyone is doing it.
2. But we've always done it that way.
3. But the money will be put to good use.
Strive to live a simple, nonmaterialistic, meaningful, and purposeful life. I'm a Luddite at heart, reminiscing about the halcyon days when we weren't overdependent on technology. I embrace sechel, not artificial intelligence, and modesty, not social media. 不患莫己知,求为可知也。"Don't fret about not being well-known; instead, strive to be worthy of being known" (Analects, book 4, verse 14). Jewish ideals inform and guide in all aspects of life. These include honesty; respect for the sanctity of all life, which includes being veg*n; not hurting people's feelings or saying negative things about them; shunning gratuitous hatred of those who think differently; giving others the benefit of the doubt and the opportunity to do the right thing; concern for the vulnerable and the disabled; having a higher purpose in life, including work; and learning for the sake of learning, including from everyone! But people with similar values come from many paths in life, the ultimate expression of which is being a mensch or, as Confucius termed it, a junzi, someone who sets an example through his or her actions, which speak louder than words.
Enjoy hiking, being in nature, lizard-watching, learning, artistic creativity, and dry and waggish humor (but not sarcasm). Introverted and sometimes lost in thought, but hopefully thoughtful in more ways than one! Look for ways to help others while avoiding self-serving feelings like validation and pride. Adventurous but also risk-averse.
I live in the desert, which teaches humility, not only because we are dwarfed by the majestic mountains and the expansive valleys but also because we are humbled by the miraculous, mind-blowing adaptations that allow life in all its forms to not merely survive but thrive in the most challenging of environments. Nature can be our teacher and help us improve our character traits.
I stopped practicing clinical medicine 30 years ago when it was no longer possible to do so ethically. My magnum opus has been the definitive treatise on Jewish medicine, a moral, integrated philosophy and system of practice that is free of self-interest and that patients need not fear to enter.
And now, for the final course, mon petit chou, my sweet, here is your fortune cookie: 好话不在多,几句成知己。"Good-hearted words need not be many; just a few can make a close friend."

Midwestern-nice homebody who spends most nights with a movie or TV show—horror and sci-fi are favorites. Books and music keep things balanced. I enjoy watching spectator sports, especially baseball, because I can’t play them well. Devoted dog dad to Gus, a mall pet store rescue who runs the household and is terrified of cats. I live in New Jersey and only want to date locally (Eastern PA is fine). Traveling is overrated, and typically, something old is better than anything new.
Dark and dry humor, low-energy evenings, good stories, and someone who can enjoy the same things without forcing excitement are my style. If that sounds like your idea of fun, we’ll probably get along.

I have soft spot in my heart for animals. I’m into spending time with animals whether it’s hiking, cooking, watching the natural world or a movie. I like swimming, bowling, bicycling, volleyball and gardening. Most my free time is spent either campaigning for animal causes, caring for animals, keeping connected with friends, writing, or attending lectures on topics which range from astrophysics to inner peace. The most enjoyable moments of my life are spent with friends in laughter. I am a scientist, an engineer, an educator, a writer, and a politically active person. I am a man who is confident in my abilities, yet I am humbled by all who touch my life.

Most important to me is that I be happy so that I may inspire happiness in you.
It is my dominant intent to focus my thoughts in a positive direction so that I maintain my connection with my Source and the Love that is really who I am. And in doing so, I will always present the best of myself to you. It is my desire that you ask the same for yourself. And it is my expectation that as each of us works to maintain our individual alignment with who-we-really-are, our relationship with one another will be one of continual and joyful expansion.
I am looking forward to a very good time here. I am anticipating that as we move forward in this life together, we will have the ultimate of all positive experiences ~ because that is what I intend to look for. As long as we are having a good time, let us stay together.

I'm retired, vegetarian since 1994, care about my health and the that of the planet and it's inhabitants. I'm non-materialistic, a skilled craftsman, adore animals, love to be outdoors exploring the Earth and it's cultures. Quiet and laid-back, lean toward the road less traveled and anti-technology in some ways. Forests, quiet coastlines, deserts, hot springs, streams and waterfalls, modern progressive cities, I love to explore off the 'beaten path'. I'm open to relocating (especially outside the USA!), and the ideal life would include a peaceful, quiet, private rural location, a few companion animals, a big organic garden, and plenty of free time to enjoy life and to travel. Our Life would be centered around living and enjoyment--being active in biking, hiking, kayaking, snow sports, or any combination involving exploration of culture and the world. Since retiring in 2020 I have filled some of my time with Australian Shepherd rescue and fostering, currently five in my home only one is a foster. ;)
Interests:
Mountain biking, hiking, rock climbing, snowboarding-skiing-shoeing, snorkeling, gardening, cooking, repairing and building things, live music festivals, exploration and adventure travel, camping, hot spring soaks, dancing [contra, etc], motorcycling, renewable energy, green building, reading, music, playing with my canine friends!
Current plans are finishing a custom camper I have been building the past year, then explore S America!

I am very young for my age - most people don't think I am much over 50 - nor do I feel much over 40. I enjoy the outdoors - being in nature - especially anything to do with water...swimming, boating, water skiing, etc. I like jogging, hiking, biking and more. Meditation is a part of my everyday life. I value goodness, nonviolence, compassion, unconditional love,truthfulness, humor and I like having fun. I am an ex hippie with ideals, an artist/craftsman by profession and I make jewelry for a living. I'm a life long student of Eastern thought and enjoy reading different works from Rumi to the Power of Now. Also enjoy creative writing, cooking movies, etc. I have a good sense of humor, love to laugh and have fun. I am very romantic, optomistic, thoughtful,and kind hearted.

I've been vegan for the animals for decades. Also Vegan for the sustainability of the Planet and for health. And Vegan for spirituality. I'm a writer. I founded and published a vegan magazine, and created and hosted a vegan radio show with interviews and independent music. I've been an animal activist. I'm an empath and I would truly value that in my partner. I love music and art and nature and walks. I've published a novel and write screenplays. I believe in the Oneness of all human and all nonhuman animals alike. I believe in Ahimsa--the ethical principle of not causing harm to other living beings. Veganism is not just a diet for me. It's conscious, compassionate living. And my ideal for this world is that all living beings, both human and nonhuman animals, be Loved, Respected, Safe and Free. That's spiritual enlightenment for me. Looking for heart-based committed vegans only, please. Thank you.

Olá!
I consider myself an easy going person, patient, gentle, creative but shy.
I really enjoy to walk on nature, have a nice bike tour, writing, reading, to play/watch sports (football mostly), listen to music and drawing.
I care a lot about animals and the environment. I'm slowly trying to adequate my lifestyle to a greener one.
It's quite hard to write about yourself but I'm here to meet mindful people, learn about different cultures and listen to free-spirited thoughts.
It's been a pleasure to write this introduction and I appreciate the time and attention you've given reading it.
I hope I can hear from you! Have a beautiful day.

I'm recently separated after being married for over 22 years. I have no kids, although I love them. I'm more of a cat person than a dog person. I'm NOT into nature or hiking. I am a total city person and prefer concrete under my feet. However, I LOVE the beach - but only when/where it is warm. I am a kid at heart, positive, and silly. I'm a rebel and go against the fray. I'm into art, fashion, film, drag queens, collecting weird dolls, traveling, cooking, upcycling, entrepreneurship, critical thinking, comedy, crafts, new wave, disco/glam, goth, costumes, free speech, shopping, going to conferences, continuing education, being creative, learning, reading, shaking up the status quo, etc. I HATE sports.

Happy, whole, open-minded, heart-based, hippie-ish, affectionate, self-confident, slightly kinky guy with lots of love to share. Very easy-going, non-judgmental American transplant to Ireland (dual citizenship), so I will always be an outsider/blow-in.
A kind-hearted and very liberal free-spirit, I find great beauty in life and also laugh a lot! A rich and fulfilling sex life is important to me as a way of communication and connection. I like to touch and be touched by those I love.
Currently living a rather low-key, rural life in a beautiful location, alone in a big house with one feline who chooses to be with me.
