- About Me:
- Born on Beltane Day and lived 41 winters, my greatest attribute is my depth of character. I can say with confidence that I am not like anyone you have ever met before. I am passionate about all that is Celtic and I was born on Beltane Day. My father's side traces back over three hundred years to Ireland with some Native American Indian mixed in for fun, which is where I derive my strong Celtic heritage and my deep connection to nature and the earth. My mother was born & raised in Holland so I also grew up instilled with old European values and modern European maturities. I could be described as a little European Renaissance and a little bit new age. I am adventurous and outgoing, worldly wise, open minded, uninhibited, reflective, compassionate and very perceptive. I have a great sense of humor, albeit sometimes dry and recluse, as I get comfortable it makes itself more apparent. I am not perfect, I have made serious mistakes in my life, but that is the continuous improvement process called learning. I seek balance in my surroundings and when it is absent, I seek change. While it is true that without the darkness the candle has no worth; too much darkness and one stumbles over the furniture…
I strongly feel that life is too short, and too precious, to spend it unhappy. My doctrine in life is to live it fully, to love well, and with deep intimacy every day. I dare to dream, and I am guided, sometimes driven, by an ache to take the necessary risks that will allow me to experience the exquisite beauty and the bone wrenching sorrow that is the adventure of being fully alive.
I have dedicated over two decades working in search & rescue and disaster relief part time with the USAF and now I work in that field full time in the private sector too. It's in my blood; I live and breathe this work. I am driven and measurably successful; I find strong motivation in the words of Roosevelt when he said; “Quell the storm and ride the thunder! Nobly venture and put forth all your heart and strength.”
My entire life I've felt called to path of ancient, Earth-worshiping spirituality, for years not knowing where my beliefs ended and someone else’s began. It bothered me that I was compelled to look to others' doctrines to answer my questions, not trusting the answers I find within myself, but not completely trusting theirs either. I was drawn to paganism because it really is about one's own spiritual path. But this leaves me with no one else to trust but myself, and here I've come full circle in my path.
I am interested in meeting like minded people for the potential of new friendships, social, spiritual and recreational activity partners.
Ultimately I am seeking my heart’s longing... Like the Aengus Og of Irish folklore, I am seeking the woman whom haunts my dreams, my own Caer Ibormeith. I am looking for that woman out there somewhere who is seeking the same. I am waiting for that one inexplicable moment when we will cross paths, look at one another and just know… I long to meet that lady who shares my appreciation and zeal for experiencing all of life’s offerings, a lady who will be my equal, not to compete or complete, but with whom we may mutually compliment and fulfill one another in a life long journey that is virtually limitless.

The Fear of Living Fully
Living fully requires determination, but above all it requires courage; I still fear the pain, the disappointment, the heartache... but courage is the control of fear, the mastery of it, not the absence. I make my choices with the realization that those sensations are merely the negative balance of the same single experience - Life! I am the master of my life, not fear, so I refuse to allow my fears to govern my life or my choices in it. Succeed or fail, fly or fall, it will be what it will be..… Continue

What Are You?
I turn away, it is in front of me.
I walk past, it follows me,
I run, it pursues me.
I hide, it finds me.
I stand tall, it towers me.
I resist, it scolds me.
I surrender, it ignores me.
I attempt, it eludes me.
I cry, it laughs at me.
I have family, it takes them.
I have friends, it takes them too.
I ask, it replies.
What are you? I am Death.
I walk past, it follows me,

I cry, it laughs at me.
I have family, it takes them.
I have friends, it takes them too.
I ask, it replies.
What are you? I am Death.

Night Time
The house is quiet,
yet the silence is deafening.
It is becomming late,
yet sleep eludes me.
My heart yearns,
but it seems in vain.
I find only unrest,
I feel only pain.
I go to bed,
but the covers smother me.
I kick them off,
and the night breeze chills me.
I used to prowl,
like a wolf in the night.
It was my time to think,
and search for insight.
The night was my friend,
it took away my fears.
Now it brings only torment,
It brings only tears.
yet the silence is deafening.
It is becomming late,
yet sleep eludes me.
My heart yearns,
but it seems in vain.
I find only unrest,
I feel only pain.
I go to bed,
but the covers smother me.
I kick them off,
and the night breeze chills me.
I used to prowl,
like a wolf in the night.
It was my time to think,
and search for insight.
The night was my friend,
it took away my fears.
Now it brings only torment,
It brings only tears.

My Place To Think
When I need to think,
I go away.
Way up high,
and waste the day.
I sit on a rock,
and look to the west.
I watch the sun fade,
as it continues its quest.
Ive been here a lot,
I need to it seems.
More and more often,
to keep hold of my dreams.
The wind blows hard,
and howls cross the land.
And the fog embraces me,
when I reach out my hand.
Up here there is peace,
or at least a cease-fire.
From the day to day war,
of which I tire.
So Ill continue to come,
to this moun… Continue

Mountain Sound
I may live in the city,
where buildings and cars abound.
But I have not been deafened,
to that mountain sound.
Although I dont often hear them,
at night if Im silent I find.
All those sounds still echo,
through the caverns of my mind.
The howl of the wolf or coyote,
when the night time sky it sees.
Challenged only by the howl,
of the wind among the trees.
The gentle dribble of a mountain spring,
as it flows to lower ground.
And the crashing thunder of a waterfall,
all make up t… Continue
