I am told by many that I look much younger than my chronological age, but then, age is just a number, and while growing older is mandatory, growing old is optional, and it is not an option I plan on taking *wink*. I have been retired for several years now after a distinguished career with the state of California, and I am enjoying every second that life has to offer now that I no longer have to fulfill commitments to a career.*BIG smile* I have a zest for living which can only truly be known by those who have almost lost their lives, but were blessed to be spared that fate. I love dressing to the nines or wearing jeans... Either can be as equally sexy and feminine, depending on the lady. I love dancing, movies, concerts, comedy clubs, fine wine, watching most sports, either live or on TV, and doing things with anyone I care about... A joy shared is a joy doubled!

Live every day as if it is your LAST chance to make someone else happy!

Never lose an opportunity to see something beautiful.

Welcome it in every face... In every sky... In every flower... In EVERY heart.

A wise old woman once said that is not in the way you touch and stimulate your lover when you climb into bed. It is in every word, and every action, from the time you wake up each day, to the time you close your eyes each night.

The same wise old woman also said that it is more than a touch, more than a kiss. It is eyes meeting eyes, and minds on fire in a long soothing dance. It is all that draws you to your lover, and in all that draws them to you. It is the act of loving, and it never ends.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that

Take our breath away!

No one falls in love by choice,

It is by CHANCE.

No one stays in love by chance,

It is by WORK.

And no one falls out of love by chance,

It is by CHOICE.

Life without love is like a dull

Pencil... POINTLESS!
