"Mourn the dead and fight like hell for the living!" (Mother Jones) 58 year old loving feminist, believer in equality, justice, the riches of diversity, personal growth, music (folk, Classical, jazz as in Keith Jarrett), family, animals as kindred beings, gardening for staying grounded...seeking soulmate with whom to be passionate partner, have a happy home front and maintain optimism and social change commitment. Have enjoyed a rich life--from working with a cooperative coalmine in Appalachia to interviewing millionaires throughout the US. Continue to be a local community activist. Interested in family—yours or adoptive. (Oops! I forgot to have children.) Pastimes include cuddling with my 2 cats, intellectual musing over a cup of tea, music and the arts, exploring new places, stopping at yard sales, hiking and enjoying all the big and little critters in my garden.

Must value kindness above all, have an unshakable commitment to "making a difference" and be open, honest and willing to grow in a relationship. Seeking someone who is passionate and expressive, physically active, likes and enjoys people and would enjoy exploring the world and its treasures. Someone who sees raising children as a "project of love." Must enjoy the world's diversity and have a passion for learning. A penchant for public broadcasting, good movies-especially "indies", theater and the creative arts, travel, white wine and brie and being romantic would round out the bill! Couldn't we have such a nice time?!
