I am reliable and unpredictable . . . strong and sensitive . . . life is interesting . . changes constantly . . . .but repetition is necessary . . three in one . . . which one? open book . . . read between the lines . . . constantly asking questions, and questioning answers . . . this is all so much bigger than we know. Three activities make the world disappear . . . sailing, photography and getting lost in a new place. I used to enjoy reading to my young son's elementary school class, and the look of pride in his smile when I could make the other kids laugh. Max means the world to me. He's eighteen now, and our relationship is evolving, but we are still close. I am caring and considerate, thoughtful and contemplative, intelligent and creative. I love to sit and talk for hours while listening to music and sipping wine, cooking dinner, or just relaxing after work. Most people say that I'm confident and outgoing. I learned a long time ago that having fun is up to me. I don't suffer arrogant, selfish, pushy people, and I'm not afraid to stand my ground with anyone. I can talk to anyone, because I am genuine. I work hard, but not too hard. There needs to be time to take in the things that restore our being.
