My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Only Kool folks!!!! & That's pretty much anyone who's Kool towards me & towards others. Fakes needn't apply & may kindly step off my planet now!!! I'm pretty easy going, & prefer people that R easy going & honest as well; I'm not into crafting drama & try avoiding being a magnet for anyone else's!Other that that, I'm interested in meeting new friends, people interested in networking for fitness, academics; just about anything of substance.
True Love burns the brightest, but the brightest flames leave the deepest scars.Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased. Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken. But it is inscribed on a heart and there it shall remain forever!If you have to think about whether you love someone or not then the answer is no. When you love someone you just know.
You don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear. Love is a gift of one's innermost soul to another so both can be whole. It is impossible to fall out of love. Love is such a powerful emotion, that once it envelops you it does not depart. True love is eternal. If you think that you were once in love, but fell out of it, then it wasn't love you were in. There are no 'exit' signs in love, there is only an 'on' ramp.
