About Me

I'm a well rounded guy in terms of personality. I value growing & learning in all areas of my life-- intellectually, emotionally, socially, relationally, & spiritually. I'm an athlete & especially into keeping in shape. I'm living one of my dreams to play tennis on the Sr. circuit & I have a national ranking. I've got a healthy sense of humor (& a slightly unhealthy one too;-) I believe in these important things: 1. continue to grow & learn 2. appreciate people 3. have a great attitude 4. set goals 5. never quit. One of my missions in life is to help make the world a better place by choosing to give more gratitude, kindness, forgiveness, honesty, & love. To discover, develop, & use the many talents my Creator has placed within me.

I'd like to meet:

"Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eyes." *********** Some women look for looks, money & prestige. Some however are attracted to confidence, intelligence, kindness, a healthy sense of humor, & good grooming. That's me & the type I'm attracted to also.*********** I'm always looking to meet new friends & interesting people. People who care about people. Non-selfish, warm hearted & giving. People who realize the highest form of greatness is the genius & generosity to multiply the effectiveness of others.*********Free advice... Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep... wait for the guy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have you... The one who turns to his friends and says, "that's her." This short film plays much like a music video and tells a tale of one man's escapism and search for a 'Better Life' in a virtual world. Free Hugs campaigngoodbye my lover
