Salutations. I am here hoping to find a loving, enduring relationship. On a personal level I invest myself so very much into my friendships and relationships, and consequently and often hurt. But hey that's the risk you take when things matter. I do not like conflict and prefer to resolve matters through negotiation and compromise instead. But will not violate my ethics either. Those enthics being a respect for all life, compassion and empathy. I am a couragous activist for human/animal rights, peace and environmental causes. I feel that I am always growing, learning, examining and define what everything means to me in my own terms. I have an insatiable appetite for knowledge whether gather by my five senses or second hand through the literature I read. Because only awareness of the world and myself can allow me to live up to purpose I feel permeates life.
