Life is a journey which often offers new pathways and unexpected opportunities to change and grow, laugh and cry, love and give. We each are guided, nutured and loved by our families and friends until we are launched as independent adults. We give guidance to others, obtain our educational goals, surround ourselves with love and family and work. We make choices, sometimes with positive outcomes, sometimes with pain and suffering. We nuture and raise our children, give to others, lean on one another and share life's journey together. Ultimately our life's successes and failures mold us into the learned and wise adult we have become. This is a brief recap of where life has brought me. My career has relocated me to NW AR. I seek Irani friends and acquaintances to discuss art, life, poetry, cooking, good wine, cultures,traditions, philosophy, love, and politics. A good friendship in time may result in dating, I am in no rush and have no agenda or timetable. I am an independent Brainiac, it is who I am. Seeking a kind hearted,stubborn Irani man to be a friend and share the journey of what time is left on this earth. I love fireside verbal jousting and sometimes I just love to be in silence and observe my surroundings and ponder. Perhaps the love of my life may be found along the journey. Allergic to cats and love dogs, I am a non smoker. If you smoke, I may step outside in the garden with you, stand up wind and we can star gaze together.
