IHOPEHEFINDSME, 53
After years of being single and putting all my efforts, focus, and attention on parenting, I have come to realize that now that my son is soon to leave home, I need to move onto the next phase of my life!! I need to take some time for me!! I seriously need and want some time for me that is not all about work, but fun and adventure. I'm still old school with regard to family, morals, values, and faith in God. If it were not for my relationship with God, I would not be the woman that I am. I see myself, others, and life's situations, as the Lord would have me see them. For me, the glass is ALWAYS half full. I look for the best in people and I try to make the best of everything. I'm a happy, positive person, who loves to laugh, but knows when it's time to be serious. I work full-time in management and mentor young people through my own non-profit ministry. I am an easygoing woman with a passion for life and everything I put my mind to. I am very compassionate and enjoy and strive for the simple things in life; family and friends, helping others, walks, music, the beach, candlelight dinners, and being the peace and calm for my companion. I'm a little old fashioned, yet classy, but absolutely not your average girl next door!!
