About Me
Am inclined towards the literate and intellectual, am also sensual and affectionate, with feet planted on ground, well, most of the time anyway. I'm Libran after all! :) Here then, in no particular order are a few specs, stats, and details for you to consider. Here also more implicitly perhaps are a few potential deal breakers. Please read the profile in its entirety before coming to conclusions. Let me say finally by way of introduction that hyperbole and humorous stuff aside, I really do mean every word I say here. So here goes.
I enjoy swimming, sunshine, cycling, walking, also like to explore parks and meadows, fields (of dreams), and lakes unspoiled, love to find myself trekking along winding mountain roads, cloud hidden, whereabouts unknown. I'm also keen on, intrigued by (but never "worried" :) to explore the possibilities of travelling into the future notwithstanding the eternal here (where else is there to be after all?) and to more keenly tune in to the now (when else is it after all?); I certainly love books, ideas, language, rhetoric, debate, intelligent conversation, writing (prose and poetry, latter sometimes in preference to former), theatre, film, selected forms of music at decidedly moderate volume (Glass/Reggae/classical). I should also mention my delight in the magical workings and promises of cyberspace, particularly the internet, this awesome instrument that makes possible the instantaneous extension of these, my words, now gazed upon at this very moment by none other than you, dear reader. In this day and age what more effective way to find that rare pearl, exquisite gem, proverbial needle in a haystack which potentially may well be none other than, well, none other than—you! Yes, you the needle but not you the haystack! lol :) ... although of course haystacks too serve good purposes weather permitting (as for example when needing structural support for that proverbial “roll in the hay”!! lol ... I apologize for mixing metaphors like that ... couldn't resist! :)
Not least, I care about wisdom, seek to know how everything is, might be, could be, find that ultimately there is nothing better to do with one's precious human existence than to seek and then realize the understanding that surpasses all understanding, namely, the illuminating recognition of how and why our universe came (and at every moment comes) into being; knowing how/why things are as they are, realizing who's in charge of it all, and determining, or at least proposing a meaningful direction for the future.
So this caring and nurturing of an enlightened vision of life and of the future, this is the very meaning and purpose of life as I see it. And to seek and to find this meaning in the here and now and in every day and always, now that truly is, could be, dare I say ought to be one's North Star in the moment and throughout eternity. It's a grand vision but no less real (and realizable) for being vast and daunting. This surely must be the first meaning for the expression, "the road less travelled". For when you think of it, how many are there who truly, sincerely care and seek to travel that road? ... Hopefully one day it will be the road not less travelled but more. But today it is as it is, and Godspeed to all of us embarked upon it!
I practice meditation regularly so that afterwards, when immersed in the bustle of the marketplace of life, in the getting-and-spending world, involved (re-volved) as I may be in the merry- (not so merry-) go-rounds of life, I will be less likely at that time to forget the well-destined trajectory I am fortunate to be on at this special moment in time. For without this regular, steady (and steadying) recurrence of meditation and realms to which it transports, the forgetting will assuredly take place. I know whereof I speak! So within and through these go-rounds of life I try to identify within myself as well as in all that is "out there" including the lives of others, what it is that I am uniquely qualified to be and to do in this life. That surely must be the most meaningful meaning for one's so-called "destiny" on this marvellous journey through one's outer and inner universe. Each of us has access to this two-fold dimension of which we all partake.
Settling for complacency, a kind of vegetative existence, well, that isn't at all my idea of a fulfilling life, which is not to say of course that I have anything at all against vegetables. In fact I like them, eat 'em all the time! ... Just don't want to be one! So now to have this rare, precious opportunity of traveling the road less traveled in the company of a gracious, spirited person, a woman both kind, good and gracious in both ordinary and beyond ordinary ways, now that would be good fortune indeed. But where find this rare individual, this gem of a person, this jewel of a creature? Where catch even a glimpse of a rara avis before she again takes flight along a trail that leaves little sign of passage!? Elusive being! Where do you reside if in fact there is anywhere in the world that you reside for very long? Into how many realms must I climb and circle and come round again and again in search of you?
But in seeking such earthly (and unearthly) treasure, I remain steadfast, continue to seek and to look and stand ready to come upon at possibly some unexpected moment this bright, vibrant and astonishing woman, she possessed of humour, wit, charm, and grace, and, as they say, quelqu'un bien dans sa peau, or, as I like to put it sometimes, bien dans sa peau mais aussi et surtout bien sur la mienne, someone playful, kind, and gentle, attuned to the times, keen on experiencing the good, the true, and the beautiful, not willing to settle for anything less.
Finally, and quoting here the language of the sensitive writer in Moulin Rouge, she whom I seek with such ardour and she who in turn seeks me with equal determination and passion, wants nothing less than "to love and be loved in return," prefers the ongoing, dynamic presence of a man at close range (arm's length, much much closer at times :), prefers his close immediate living breathing presence to all vicarious pleasures offered up, say, by celluloid or mediated fantasies, the ones found, say, in films such as Moulin Rouge! :) ... I see her now in my mind's eye, imagine she's out there, approaches me now with lightness of step, swish of robe and possessing an authority that combines royalty with benevolence, wisdom with compassion. So appears my Juliette and Roxanne, my Dulcinea and Héloise. Goes without saying how I would indeed and in deed now love to see and meet her. Why does she tarry so?
If this speaks to you and you find yourself resonating to the above, then I'd love to hear from you. Bonus points if you write in verse, thereby holding out the promise of being not just my best friend and lover but also my beloved muse! :). ... [There's a little

First Date
A first date would allow for spontaneity and a kind of enlightened détente, that is, it would be conducive to the deliberate, conscious acceptance of being unguarded and vulnerable with someone new. Not heedless or anything like that, just not having any guards up to begin with, not being too savvy for your own good! :) Defence-less if you will. Seemingly fearless because you know deep down that you have nothing to lose, that in fact there is nothing to lose. We already know ourselves, and so of course from "hello"we know each other well beyond the usual psychological/political manoeuvrings that ordinary relationships thrive on; here no trace of embarrassment, apology, narcissism; we're no longer in the throes of postmodernism at its worst. And there is nothing, nothing at all, that creates awkwardness between us. Indeed, neither of us has any interest in preserving, projecting an image of what we might imagine ourselves to be and then want to portray to others. No trace of this kind of game and pretentiousness going on here, a game that is in fact not a game at all and not at all kind! Come to think of it, we don't even know we're here, if you get the sense of what I mean ... for knowing or analyzing ourselves and others is no longer an issue, no longer relevant. There is no need for any of this. Psychological issues were dealt with, settled, long ago. And so now quickly it becomes a singular pleasure to know and be with you. Resonance is our channel of communication, our communicative mode of choice.
After "hello" we might sit or stroll about in gentle surroundings, exploring common ground, remaining sensitive to where we resonate with each other. We might pause at some point for ... for libations! (nothing less!:), all the while offering each other our best, giving way, yielding regularly to wit, banter, laughter, find ourselves listening to each other with that calm, dignified attention normally reserved for ones we regard with warmth, interest, esteem, find ourselves gradually engaged in a most congenial exchange of (mostly! :) coherent thought and ingenuous personal sentiment. No trace of struggling to communicate since language and speech arise in us effortlessly, devoid of psychological overtones. Less and less of "me" and of "you" and more and more of "we" while our own distinct personalities are never lost or in any way diminished here. The opportunity to heighten poetic sensibilities and to express ourselves from the source in us from which the best in us arises augments; love sonnets lie poised on our lips.
At some point if it feels we are connecting at a heart level, that somehow we may already have met each other before, then no telling where this might lead and what might happen next. We are in a sense as old friends come together again to move forward and explore afresh from wherever we left off. There is a palpable sense, an anticipation both tangible and real of the genuine fun, delight and mea
