I appreciate that you're visiting my profile. If you have any level of interest or some questions, *please do* send me a message, even a short few words. Don't worry, I'm a kind person :-)
I reside not so far from the Baldy Trailhead in the 'Arcadia Dunes Preserve' in NW lower Michigan, but I got so many long-distance search results I centered my search a bit to the east. I live near the coast where a lot of others go to vacation! (Most people this site shows live far from me.)
Personality - mostly, not entirely, an INFJ. (web search for: verywellmind INFJ Personality: Characteristics & Cognitive Functions )
In a relationship, I hope to see this progression: respect, trust, safety, acceptance, honor, gratefulness, caring, giving, healing, comfort, tenderness, cherishing, commitment, and passion.

Education: Lessons are everywhere. My father’s father was an electrical engineer. My first word was ‘ight’, missing the ‘L’. I loved to be held up to a wall switch, flip it up and down, and see the light across the room going on and off. Growing up, I did well in most academic subjects while leaning toward STEM. Years later, I began an EE degree from Carnegie-Mellon in Pittsburgh, where my grandfather got his first college degree.
My family of origin had its problems, as many do, and I began looking for something beyond myself for ‘life’ and deeper satisfaction. My customary church taught that we relate to God through ‘liturgy’. They also taught church history. While some people think and feel very differently from me, I did not see past religious conflict and personal sacrifice centering around liturgy, rather a culture clash as seen today, based on strongly held beliefs. So I sought and was given a Biblical faith. I've been through personal trials - that faith has matured, not waned. Some simple matters of my faith are a part of my daily life.
I hope always to be observant and learning. I changed educational course and followed Biblical studies. Adventures began, melding engineering talent and missionary interests.
I also worked for many years as a television ‘technician’ of several specialties. I’ve worked with people from all over the world, many cultures and languages, some of the people so excellent and motivated to see our world closer to an actual state of freedom and peacefulness.
My first marriage had many issues, and despite the priority I gave marriage, through self-discovery and some counseling, I decided there are worse things than divorce. As a part of my processing this, I wrote a personal journey document.
The relationship that later became my second marriage was ‘grace and mercy’ at work. We fit well and loved each other with great depth. Cancer and complications took that from us after 21+ years.
I was somewhat introverted in my formative years, but in a few situations and in the company of certain wonderful people, I am more lively. I *thrive* on close, personal connection. I can be an open book – if you don’t want to know, don’t turn that page!
I like both to be a satisfied home-body and to be out-and-about at times, but the last several years have not been what I was hoping them to be. I became overweight, but I'm working toward being more healthful. I hope to find someone with whom I share common ground, and where each of our differences, strengths, and needs will weave well with the other - a catalyst for motion, growth-development, and joy in our lives.
Coastal, rural Michigan is great. Want to see? Search for Arcadia Bluffs Sunset Camera. If poor weather or dark, search the video Arcadia Michigan: 6 Best Things.
I am grateful for life and it's gifts. May we each find ‘our person’ soon!
