Life is precious and God IS good!! Please know that I won't respond to winks or no photos. --In case you don't read any farther, I am only looking for one amazing and wise man who looks at beauty and creation and knows he is without excuse in believing in a great God!!----a man who understands what it means to take care of a woman's heart, and lives it ---a true believer who strives to puts God first in his life. It's been difficult finding a good man who I connect emotionally with, and have that elusive chemistry. I want someone who has been through enough pain to know what is really important in life. -- For me, older has been better in every way. I exercise regularly and try to eat right to keep in shape, stay healthy and feel better, I have the wisdom I wish I would have had when I was younger, am much better person in every way, surprisingly have quite a bit of energy left after raising 3 great kids (two with PhD, and the other BA and stay at home mom), and now I'm ready to experience true love -- My best match is someone who is high energy, smart, funny, wise, romantic, kind, slow to anger, and possess right brained qualities. I connect best with those who not just think and react to life-but those who feel and whose hearts are moved by the arts---someone who actually cares about what is going on in me and how I feel. That kind of genuine, other-focused caring will be returned many times over. The man who captures my heart will be loved as he has never been loved. My hope is to meet someone who values me, respects me and loves me well --spoiling and protecting are things I could get used to also. I want someone who can't wait to be together and who grabs me first instead of the mail!!. My heart longs to be able to love the man who is willing to give his heart to me. .. Children and animals make life worth living. You can judge a man's character by the way he treats your dog when no one is watching. Did I mention I have 6 awesome grandchildren whom I adore!!--- I want a wild, confident, take charge, and thoughtful man--not perfect, but strong and with a kind heart and a positive outlook. ---- I've been in Tampa for 7 years, and have begun a whole new chapter in my life. I'm learning to take one day at a time and see what God has in store for me. -------------"The true story of our lives is not accurately described by our outward appearances or activities or jobs. The story of our lives is the story of the journey of our hearts." I'd like to find someone who knows what I mean by wanting to live life the way it was meant to be lived, and eventually leave behind lots of laughter in the walls!!!
