"My favorite hobbies are foreign languages, cultures of the world, archeology, astronomy, ancient and medieval history, theology, politics. I like doing many more things and am always game to try new adventures. My idea of a good time is with friends and family at an intimate dinner or outing discussing politics, current events, or the latest in theater,music, or just plain enjoying each others company! Variety is the spice of life!
It would be cool to find friends who are not materialistic, not status oriented, and do not base friendships on looks or financial and social standing. I can't abide by people who think looks,money,titles, or degrees make a person, and I've no use for them! I look for people who are salt of the earth, for they are genuine and sincere, and worth more than all the gold! (Ye Are The Salt Of The Earth Matthew 5:13-KJV). Give me always people who find it more important to focus on others rather than being self-centered and thinking it's all about them! Give me people who treat all man kind with kindness, compassion and respect, even in the face of adversity! Will Rogers once said;†I never met a man I did not like." That be me. I never met a person I didn't like, but sometimes certain behaviors or actions can be a pain.(1 Corinthians 13:4-10 RSV) "Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away."
I love a wide variety of Music. I am partial to Flamenco gypsy music, and also international music because it's part of my heritage. I grew up with it. Blues music that interests me is anything before 1960s. I play the piano, guitar,harp, dulcimer, and Anglo-concertina. I recommend Esflamenco.com for some of the finest variety of Flamenco and Spanish music. For music from all over the world, I recommend www.arcmusic.co.uk

Foreign movies: I love historically based movies, or movies with morals to the story. I do like funny movies, if they keep to minimal profanity, and are not sexually explicit.
I rarely have the opportunity, because I'm too busy training, but I do enjoy the History channel, Discovery Channel, Master Piece Theater, and Mystery on PBS. I love the Inspector Lynle series. I love Sean Hannity and the Fox Channel! Ooh, I like Haunted, on the Discovery channel. Darn, I wish I could meet a spirit.
Too many to list.
Jesus is the biggest hero of mine, because he gives me great strength and solace.When I think of what he sacrificed, and the life of poverty he lived, who am I to complain about my little hardships! My parents, our military men and women who have served and are serving defending our great nation!" A PRAYER FOR HUMILITY." Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." Matthew 5:5In a world that values material success over truth, that celebrates how much rather than how, it is all too easy for us to lose our way. We begin to see ourselves through the eyes of the world rather than through your eyes. We keep count of what we have and have not. We judge ourselves by standards that do not include Your will. We forget that all we have and all that we are, are blessings bestowed upon us by You. Forgive us our lack of humility and guide us in the search for hope and salvation. Humble our hearts so that we may see ourselves, and make our choices, with our eyes firmly on You. Fill our minds with Your truth and forgive us our human ways. To all honor and glory be Your name. In Christo Jesu et Maria Immaculata
