"There are lovers content with longing. I’m not one of them." -Rumi I am seeking a serious relationship with a deeply real and genuine person. How many countries you have traveled to does not matter because it is how far you have traveled inside that matters most. After 35 years of owning a successful business in the music industry focusing around the guitar rarely working less than 60 hours a week in classical, jazz, composing, performance, film, stage, concert production, teaching college and high school students, I continue creating music in the Philly area performing with "The Big Push" a very fine big band, as well as jazz and Latin groups, classical guitar, and opera. I've been enjoying a less-pressured schedule since phasing out my business, selling my home and rental properties and moving back to Philadelphia in 2013 after three decades in Vermont. To say it has changed is more than an understatement. And though enjoying city life again, I am about to buy a house in Maine. I have no children, nor do I have family here anymore. So I'll rent it and in two years reassess unless I meet a loving reason to stay here. :) I'm glad I've had enough success so I have options, and deeply thankful that I can even have them. To be so near to rivers, mountains and lakes, an easy drive to the beach, whale watching, boating, fishing, hiking, 70 islands off the coast of the lovely city of Portland, and owning a beautiful home...sounds inviting. :) Also, it has been a personal goal to live financially "off-the-grid." I was able to end too many years of monthlies six years ago and never want to look back. I am grateful for my life and have seen a lot of how much people don't have in our world, where oppression is a given and the freedom we take for granted is little more than a dream. Having close friends in many places in the world is a nice advantage. My longest excursion was to West Bengal living six months in Kolkata. Nepal and Indonesia are two countries I am drawn to and will return to both. Japan is next. And I am wanting to see a lot more of our own country. I read on many subjects, carrying three books with me at any moment and spend quite a bit of time researching to keep learning. I admit I have become a kind of junkie for the written word and haven't owned a television for 25 years. I am drawn to the critical thinking of the European Enlightenment, thinkers such as Bacon, Descartes, Locke, and Spinoza who set the philosophical stage for what evolved into the USA inspiring Jefferson and Madison to pen the Articles of Confederation and Bill of Rights respectively. I am not a post-modern man nor a Socialist. Also, I like being male and do not exist in some Peter Pan infantility. Do you believe in gender fluidity, toxic masculinity, intersectionality, political correctness? I'm not your man. Weight training Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, some yoga to stretch out on Tuesdays and Thursdays, walking five miles four days a week, the joy of scull rowing on the Schuylkill River, and a healthy diet keeps me "in my body" and relatively sane. I was a trained Junior Olympian swimmer in my youth, so I love water anytime. And my location in the old East Callowhill manufacturing (Loft) district allows walking or biking everywhere and avoid driving except when necessary. The light in this old factory with its massive wall of windows and large industrial skylight and 16ft. ceilings is incredible. Plantlife of all kinds flourishes in it, as I do. My walls and living space are alive with art of all kinds from many different cultures. Bookshelves are all around and my musical instruments and work needs are close at hand. I was married for ten years a long long time ago. Divorced in 1985, I never remarried. Relationships? Of course. I mean I do still have a very active pulse. :) But I have been single for quite a few years and take care of myself well. Staying unmarried wasn't a conscious decision. You're going along living your life and look back and realize just how short our time here is. But life can change if we let it. And we do have the ability to make decisions if we're aware and open to it. So when I sense it's time to turn the page, I go with it open-eyed about what may come next in the story. Who knows...If we're lucky, we may just meet each other in the next chapter. *And please, no cell phone addicts or "wokeness."
