General
Photography, traveling, horseback-riding, movies, reading, animal-lover, dancing, learning, laughing, hanging out, eating chocolate chip cookies - no nuts please.
I'd like to meet:
Anyone who lives life to the fullest. Has an open heart. Knows how to laugh and doesn't take themselves too seriously. Those who have a generous spirit, and take the time to listen. People willing to move outside of their comfort zone, and take a chance. Beautiful souls, with passionate natures.
Even the worst of us, has a spark of beauty inside. I always strive to find that spark, and more often than not, I've found it. This makes each of us into a better person.

Cookie's Quotations
"A KISS"
Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.
-- Albert Einstein
A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous.
-- Ingrid Bergman
How did it happen that their lips came together?
How does it happen that birds sing, that snow melts,
that the rose unfolds, that the dawn whitens behind
the stark shapes of trees on the quivering summit of the hill?
A kiss, and all was said.
-- Victor Hugo
A kiss, when all is said, what is it?
'Tis a secret told to the mouth instead of to the ear.
-- Edmond Rostand
Never let a fool kiss you, never let a kiss fool you.
-- Unknown
At the first kiss I felt something melt inside me that hurt in an exquisite way.
All my longings, all my dreams and sweet anguish,
All the secrets that slept deep within me came awake,
Everything was transformed and enchanted, everything made sense.
-- Hermann Hesse
Kissing is like drinking salted water.
You drink, and your thirst increases.
-- Chinese Proverb
Once he drew
With one long kiss my whole soul thro'
My lips, as sunlight drinketh dew.
-- Alfred Lord Tennyson
Her kisses left something to be desired... the rest of her.
-- Unknown
