I am here for Friends

About Me

Welcome to shadow woods.
I'm deeply spiritual (although I use that term loosely as I often have little in common with many who claim the same). I prefer relationships and conversations with depth, but enjoy being surreally silly and love to laugh. Have no time for narrow-mindedness, envy, prejudice, or bullshit.
I'm drawn to the dark shadows of life, without the need to be creepy or an emo-goth. I happily allow others to misjudge me (you can blend into the shadows better that way - and observe....)
I'm a world citizen, a dog person, happily married, a bohemian gypsy at heart, an empath, insomniac, and always learning.

I don't do: superficiality, ass-kissing, small talk, pink, social obligations, white 'chocolate', showing off, drama, universality theories, commercialism, divinity, clowns.

"This heart within me I can feel, and I judge that it exists. This world I can touch, and likewise judge that it exists. There ends all my knowledge, and the rest is construction. For if I try to seize this self of which I feel sure, it is nothing but water slipping through my fingers."
Camus
Places I've visited:
Delhi, Bangkok and Thailand islands, Beijing, Mexico City and southern Mexico, Bolivia, Columbia, Madrid, Argentina, Nepal, Uruguay, eastern Brazil, Peru, Eastern Australia, Paris, southern Spain, Perpignan, much of England, much of Scotland, Milan, Venice, Pisa, Florence, Genoa, Padua, Italian Riveria, Prague, Rome, Monaco, Slovenia, Switzerland, Salzburg, southern Germany, Croatia, Montenegro...


"The process of delving into the black abyss is to me the keenest form of fascination."
Lovecraft

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I enjoy the company of those that are: truth seekers, awake, authentic, mildly unconventional, have a great sense of humour, intelligent, have a lust for life, free-thinkers, comfortable in who they are, interested in personal growth, goats not sheep, find truth internally, intense, internally deep rather than externally obvious. People for whom perceptual shifts are a way of life.

"Sometimes I feel diagonally parked in a parallel universe"

The Bell Jar

Read this back some 20 years ago, just re-read it, still acerbic as ever. "If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I'm neurotic as hell. I'll be flying back...

Lovecraft on Film?

If you enjoyed del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth, but like me enjoy the even darker realms, you might be tickled (or like me, be almost wetting myself) at the prospect of the same director bringing us Lovecr...
