I am a happy, kind, grateful, generous, positive sapiophile who has undergone major personal transformation over the years. I am creating my life. No baggage. I love solitude but I am ready to share my life and my joy with someone else again.
I have two wonderful daughters ages 31 and 28 (youngest is getting a PhD in nutrition inspired in part from seeing how I changed😊). When/if they have kids in several years, I will want to be in NorCal weekly to provide a few days of child care.
I am here to serve others in some way until the end of my life. Which, hopefully, will be very long (longevity genes in the fam and my VO2max is extremely high, muscle mass high, fat low). I am a physician who has been incorporating lifestyle medicine with patients in my subspecialty, as well as co-teaching a workshop on culinary medicine for medical students. I became Professor Emerita recently but am still working part time. I am figuring out a transition to “pure” very part-time practice of lifestyle medicine (to possibly do from anywhere, even a boat).
I am passionate about physical fitness- I was on the first women’s water polo team at my university and still swim (long distance). I like trail runs, yoga, weight training, love to play tennis (badly), and am willing to take up any sport or activity if it contributes to a partnership. I also love petting animals, staring at stars, trees, clouds and meditating. Any kind of guitar genre — I am there. Cuddling — also there.
Pro-Democracy; FDT. Pro-Immigrant. Pro-civil discourse. No Kings.

It's all about emotion and devotion;
There's no puffery or self-promotion,
So come drink your love-potion,
And I'll do the loco-motion with thee.
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; not doing what is unethical, even if permitted; 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 jūnzǐ (君子), 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 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. Empathetic. 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 almost 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 system 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."

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 guess .. My Type Of Personality .. is not very common and very recently I found out that It Is Called : .. "Sigma Personality Type", .. and -to my amazement-, .. it is -generally- known and understood, and It Is Considered -ststistically- As Being The Most Rare Type -of them all-. .. No wonder I did not -yet- meet anybody that would match my own personality (Or My .. Elusive .. "Soul-Mate / Soul-Bride"). .. It is also nicknamed : .. "Lone Wolf Type", .. which seems to be self explanatory and -apparently- sugestive that .. I Should Be Howling Much More -At Night- (specially at "Full Moon" times).

"The truth shall not seek you, you must go forth and search for it. And laying hands upon it, you must clean the dirt from the gemstone, separating the wisdom from the falsity which has been encrusted around it. For mortals, when they find the divine, rarely let it soar upwards but instead surround it with their desires for wealth and power and self-righteousness."(c)

I grew up in Ohio and lived in Utah and California before moving to New York and recently moved back to Ohio. I have been vegan since September 2008 (vegetarian about a year and a half before switching). I have worked helping animals for the past 13+ years. I started as an adoption counselor at a humane society in Ohio, than a dog caregiver at a large sanctuary in Utah, and for over 8 years I was a caregiver for farm animals at a sanctuary. I have a degree in Criminal Justice, but after a few years realized that helping animals was the direction I wanted to go with my career and life, and I haven't had any regrets. I have one four legged child who runs my life (no two legged ones for me). When I am not taking care of the animals at work or my girl at home, I enjoy spending time outside going for walks, hikes and biking. When I just feel like staying around the house I enjoy reading and watching movies.

I spend a lot of time outdoors. I kayak, hike, bike, birdwatch, and love meeting all my wild neighbors. The year before Covid I also started taking surfing lessons.
I write and advocate for causes I care about and have had some successes. The circus no longer comes to my town, there's a beautiful preserved forest that does NOT have a cell phone tower, there's a large city park where ALL smoking is banned.....
My favorite issues are environmental, animal rights, and those concerning poverty and human rights. I think in another life I must have been a peasant in a peasant uprising.
This might seem odd but for fun I collect trash. My kayak often looks more like a garbage scow as I gather plastics and other trash while kayaking on the river and at the beach. I mostly just find trash but I've found some interesting stuff too, including something the bomb squad had to blow up on the spot. I'm still waiting to find either a briefcase full of half a million dollars of drug money no one claims or a chest of pirate's treasure sticking half out of a sandbar.
I love gardening... for wildlife, for food, for beauty, organically, and with native plants.
I enjoy a variety of things and am always eager to learn new ones. I'm open to suggestions.....
I admire Thoreau, Gandhi, Paul Watson, Ric O'Barry, johnpaulgeorge&ringo, Zonker P. Harris, Jeremy Hilary Boob Phd.......
"If I had no sense of humor I should long ago have committed suicide." - Gandhi

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.
Reach out and say hello!

Yes, true!
I am happily single and navigating life's adventures solo.
With no marriage plus zero offspring in the rear view mirror.
Speaking of adventures!
You will often find me soaking up outdoor beauty – it is where I feel truly alive.
While I appreciate the thrill of sports, my heart beats a little faster for the focus and artistry found in creative pursuits.
Now, here is a fun curve: I have developed a lifelong love for bowling.
(Though enjoying the lanes tends to be a rare treat...)
Rest assured, my monogrammed balls are polished and ready to roll – yes, bowling balls!
While I frequently enjoy strikes with plenty of dynamic pin action (Hubba! Hubba!) my daily life leans towards refreshing simplicity.
I frequently find immense joy in moments of casual relaxation.
I also wholeheartedly welcome spontaneity.
I potentially even entertain and enjoy radical impulse in unique and profound instances.
Ultimately, I deeply value vulnerability and the spark of genuine passion in life.

I am a young-hearted gal with a good deal of knowledge with regard to career pursuits over the years (i.e., I have successfully engaged in everything from ski-lift operator, guest-ranch wrangler and chain-saw/heavy-equipment operating in my younger years in the mountains of Colorado to more "refined" careers such as sales rep and court reporting...and then ending my career path as a major-airline flight attendant...after working the ticket-counter and gates and ramp and ops - with various airlines over the years - before going into inflight operations.) I am attentive to a natural-health and healing approach to life (and yes, prefer to meet someone who has not been vaccinated) - and resonate deeply with nature and her critters (i.e., am a bona-fide animal lover). I would appreciate meeting a man who resonates and would also enjoy occasional world travel, perhaps flying (i.e., general aviation)...being reciprocally cherished and adored -- and assisting in enriching the lives of others in whatever way that we can.

I'm a strict lacto-vegetarian (no eggs/fish direct animal products - dairy is OK).
What started out as a lifetime religious component quickly turned into something more related to my core values of morals, ethics and compassion.
I'm hoping to connect with someone here who can appreciate the same and is funny, intelligent and seriously looking to build a future a together.
I love to travel, participate in adventurous sports, volunteering activities, appreciate different cultures and always prefer vegan/vegetarian restaurants over others.
If my profile has piqued your interest - do reach out and just ask.
I am a paid member and believe that every opportunity gives us a chance at accomplishing our true purpose in this lifetime - however, it is up to us to take the initiative and take that chance :)

I'm separated with 2 children. The legal divorce is (hopefully) close to completion. I also have an older daughter out of the nest living on her own in grad school. I'm a very involved, loving parent.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor by profession. Most of my clients are children and adolescents. I love my work, I’ve been practicing for many years. I'm dedicated to helping improve the lives of my clients and in doing so, improve myself. I get so much from exploring other people's experiences.
I don’t smoke or use any drugs, and I’m allergic to alcohol.
I have an eclectic range of interests. I’m an avid hiker/walker and I also work out frequently. I own a small internet company that sells a backpacking stove I invented and I'm also building a jewelry/wearable art business. Certified in scuba as a rescue diver but don’t get to do that as much as I’d like. I like to go out and socialize. I never stop learning and growing.

What you see is what you get, but you also get so much more than appearances suggest! I am comfortable in my own skin. I know and like who I am. Therefore, I have no use for painting my face, prancing around in spiky heels, dressing like a whore, dancing backwards or hanging ornaments on myself like some primitive Christmas Tree. I don't need you to complete me. The right partner is a nice add-on. Likewise, I cannot complete you or make you happy if you're not an already happy person. Can you live with that, or will it make your orbs fall off? If you are secure enough in your own identity that you don't feel a need to boss someone around, if you can respect that we are both busy and you are not my keeper, not my boss, not my patient, not the only person or activity in my life, and you happen to like the Whatyouseeiswhatyouget look, then we just may have a winner. Everyone else, thanks for playing.

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 ❤️
