Meet a woman from Ottawa, Canada. Widow looking for someone to spend time with and hopefully develop into a great relationship. I'm honest and faithful. Enjoy walks, quite time at home,sewing and quilting, cooking,camping, drives in the country. New to the area.

Date a soulmate from Canada. Because i believe that life is both fragile ...and precious... I approach it with absolute intensity and unwavering honesty.I My lifestyle is non conformist and and non materialistic.I'm deeply spiritual and refuse to be defined by any one religion. Transformation and healing,on many different levels, is a central focus for me. I've traveled extensively and have a penchant for 'higher' education: I spent a year at Naropa, a Buddhist University in Colorado and have recently completed a grad program in Theology. I've spent a couple of years exploring a career in hospice chaplaincy and have a few more certifications to aquire.
I LOVE being in nature --- waterfalls, rivers and lakes are particularly appealing. I love animals ...cats and dogs are my special friends!
I've done volunteer work with homeless people and am deeply moved by issues of social injustice.
I've been committed to a healthy and 'alternative' lifestyle for over twenty five years. Fresh air, good organic produce, gardening and long walks/hikes have kept me in good health for a very long time. I love good food and good wine...and abhor what has become the 'normal' high sugar,high carb, high processed 'food' diet. I am strongly environmentally conscious ...and try to live as 'green' a lifestyle as I am able. I hold a life of meaning in far greater esteem than one of material accumulation...although I do not eschew beauty and comfort! It's important to me that my partner shares these values.
I believe that intimacy is founded on a healthy, joyful flow of ideas. A bright, open minded partner who enjoys communicating would suit me well. I appreciate people with vivid imaginations, a sense of magic and a willingness to explore consciousness ...beginning with one's own.
I'm seriously considering a move back to my 'home' country, Canada. My mother (89) and sister live in Ottawa and while this is not ideal in terms of weather, my 'roots' hold a certain power over me --- at least at this time in my life.I will be in Ottawa June 19-June 29th to assess whether I could really move back. It would be great to connect with new friends who may just turn out to be future partners!.
Note:June 30th: Yes ...I'm moving back to Canada in the next few months. Anticipated date is September.Fell in love withn a little village called Wakefield ...in Quebec.

Meet someone special from Canada. I'm looking for someone to keep me company on my various adventures. Someone who can carry on a conversation, walk for a mile without complaining, help me cook a healthy meal and help me get through those tough weeks.
I like plants in all shapes (including vegetables and fruits) and gardening, nature walks, all that. I like being near and on the water. This summer I had a chance to swim in a little lake in the Gatineau hills. I wore my goggles and floated across the lake looking at the fish and plants underwater for most of the afternoon. A big thrill.
I have a good job and a nice home, but not much company. Would like a nice solid man to be beside me sometimes. Someone to spend time with, to share my stories, to tell me their stories.
Really I'd like to have a professional, mature man for a partner.
Is that you?

Date a woman from Canada. My friends describe me as energetic, humorous, attractive, hard working, generous and creative. Happy people who embrace life make me smile. I am proud of my children and of my career achievements. I am grateful for the freedom I have in my live and for the many opportunities that life has offered me. I am looking for a caring, sensitive, energetic, humorous person to share my life with. I am passionate about art , music and my career which involves helping others.

. I am very much into being real. You would find me a pretty happy person, generally optomistic, helpful, loyal, sensitive. That said, I'm not a pushover either. I am a confident person, a pretty good communicator... both ways talking and listening. I'm fairly independent and enjoy time on my own as well as with others. My family and friends are very important and I like to spend time connecting with them even if it's just by phone. I love to laugh, I appreciate the lighter side of life. I tend to get a lot of enjoyment out of some of the simplest things. I would like to travel more at some point in the not too distant future.
I would like to meet someone who isn't afraid to reveal who he really is, someone who is open minded about issues, also a confident traveller, someone who likes himself as he is (not looking for a fixit) and, like me, just wants to complete the inner circle his life.
I think an intimate relationship is all about having some common core values and going from there into that unknown place where as Rumi says, "We are Three"

. Homebody, who likes to watch t.v.,movies and play computer games. I also like to read mystery books by Janet Evanovich. My oldest son Joe lives with his friends elsewhere in the city, and my younger son is in the army. He visits on the weekends,but lives with his girlfriend.
I live with my younger brother and my two pets;Cleo my cat and Bruley my oldest son's dog.

. I am easy-going, funny, intelligent and (they tell me) very patient. I find life a pretty interesting place and remain curious about lots of things. I'm not sure that there is an ideal match, just people who click at a particular point and their paths work well together. I enjoy being with people who are bright and funny and who appreciate that about me - have to get South Park and Billy Connelly. Being active is important to me. I enjoy biking, walking and even downhill ski, but gently, and have taken up X-country in self-defence. But I also love spending quiet, sedentary time. I love Hollywood and independent movies (i.e., if it's interesting and/or fun, I'm in), documentaries on space and the brain, live theatre/dance/ music. I read too much I've been told (how's that possible?). "Chemistry" is also important and that's what's so difficult about this approach, isn't it? If we were all just in one big room, we might have a better idea, ... but back to you... I used to have a list of qualities I was looking for, but it just keeps changing so I gave that up. Drop me a line if you're interested and perhaps we can connect.

. I have returned to my home town of Ottawa after a lengthy absence of 30 years. It's good to be home. Except that now I have no partner and having trouble finding my old friends. Looking to make some new ones. I work full time and have four children, two of which still live with me. My favorite thing to do is either travelling, going to the movies (love the big screen - it's not the same at home) or volunteering. I am friendly, honest, patient and giving but not a door mat. I can say no when I have to and will give you the shirt off my back if you need it.
2012 is going to be my year to do the things that I want to do. I've raised four children and my last two are close to being on their own also.
Like they say, it's now or never.
Looking forward to meeting some new friends.

. its hard to sell myself usually I'm the type not do so you have to know me first ,I love some sports and camping ,love traveling,art, dancing,nice walk hand in hand with my gentleman,love animals
very sociable,still working and I do love my grandchildren,.....if you want to know more of me you should contact me .

. I am very affectionate, sincere, a romantic at heart, with a great sense of humour who loves such things as - laughter, great conversations, the arts, adventurous outings, being on the water, fresh flowers, the smell of freshly hung clothes on the line, holding hands, a quiet home-made dinner, travelling and, just recently, have come to realize that IРІР‚в„ўm ready to learn how to play golf! Lol
I have been fortunate enough to have had some great experiences over the years; lived in central Mexico, owned/operated a New York style �bar & grill’ in Toronto (with my ex), moved to Sosua, Dominican Republic, for a few years, with the family to see what life would be like living on an �island’….. been involved in the charter business (boating) and the Toronto Hydroplane & Sailing Club – must say, really enjoy anything to do with the water!!!
I am a nurturer and someone who enjoys being hugged; I enjoy making sure that my partner knows that I'm there to be supportive and step up to the plate; if I think you are having a tough time, don't be surprised if I rest my hand on your shoulder to make you know that I'm there for you.
Life is a journey…….would love to find someone to make new memories with, someone to bike with or exercise with – someone to laugh with and share great times - someone kind, gentle, fun to be with who really misses a lady around!
Drop me an email to say hi – who knows!
