I like the idea of this thread as it brings all those who
read it some insight into us as being human.
I've met like minded partners through both the internet and
sheer conicidence as well.
As by way of the internet it was through one of our sister sites
to be quite honest.
I really love threads like this because it provides an opportunity
for others to see a little of us aside from what we use as
our screen names and avatars.
That human element with all its emotions, hopes, dreams, faults
and frailties and more that make us who and what we are.
I read the post by Uncle_Ed and what stood out was his view on
not being a good looking bloke. In my mind I look to see people
for the total package so to speak, seeking what lies beyond the
surface.
I've never been one to see someone soley for what they might look
like on the outside. Everyone has their own degree of attractiveness
on a physical level but what lends or detracts from that is what
we are inside.
One doesn't have to be the visage of God or Goddess to sparkle
and be accepted by those who are willing to see through different
eyes.
You might find I speak a great deal of hearts and minds but that
is what we are in essence. The two elements that comprise what
we call our soul.
We can meet by many different means be it the internet or through
everyday life. What makes that true connection is what we are
willing to share with those we meet and what they are willing to
share in return.
