... progress. Good progress. Separation accomplished. Sadly I have to credit my inheritance from the passing of my father. He always wanted my happiness. Sigh.

But hey, since I’m a rambler, why not add to it?
I came across a list made long ago … a list of ‘criteria’ or a ‘wish list’ for that special person. They are not in order of importance … and obviously includes “someone who can make me smile and laugh”
- Someone smart and intellectually stimulating, who likes to talk about ideas and doesn’t mind giving me second opinions
- a good person with a big heart, who is kind, loving and romantic
- someone who is courteous, friendly and treats others with respect
- someone who takes care of his professional and financial life (or at least tries to)
- someone who is supportive of my goals and dreams and can be supportive when I am having a rough time or a bad day. Someone who is willing to take support from me in return, who won’t hide or run away when he needs support
- someone who is passionate and has a zest for life
- someone who isn’t fooled by my self-reliance and can see and accept my vulnerabilities
- someone with a strong sense of integrity
- someone who likes to travel and doesn’t mind impromptu diversions and prefers hotels/motels over camping
- someone who enjoys entertaining
- someone who likes to cook
- someone who gets along with my friends and family
- a good lover who can express himself physically and lovingly with consideration and openness
- someone who is committed to the relationship and willing to work on it (should the time ever come when it needs working on)
- someone who might not forget to turn on the light for me when I’m coming home late from a business trip and who might not lock me out
- taller than I am
Well, it’s a start, and it just may be enough
