*Best wishes to everyone in this forum and on this site! May we all have success, good fortune and great health!*
Hi, I'm Kathryn. I live in FL, I grew up and have lived primarily in major cities or suburbs of major cities. The times that I've visited friends or family in rural farming communities have always left me reflecting on how different it felt in a most peaceful and positive way. For the past few months, I've been thinking about WWOOF-ing to immerse myself in farm life and learn all of the important basics. I sell my time in trade for money remotely online, so it seems doable, possible.

I'm 5'0" tall, single, straight, have not been married and I don't have children. Even though my physiological and cellular age is 44, my chronological age, which I am unable to identify with, is plus a decade up from there. I'm close to family members and have tight friendships that go back many years. I'm a straightforward, 'tell it like it is' person and have great communication skills. I think that whatever needs to be discussed can be done in a calm respectful manner. I'm able to articulate my thoughts and feelings well while making sure the other person feels heard and validated also.

On most days, I'm casual and wear very little make-up, though I have no problem getting all 'done up' for a dressy or formal occasion. I have no interest in going out drinking or partying and have never been a fan of that. I'm a day person. I get up early and I go to bed early. My big 'going out' is meeting a friend for a walk on a peaceful trail and then having a nice lunch. Not a big TV person these days, although I don't mind seeing an occasional rerun of 'The Office' or streaming a comedy or predictive-programming sci-fi movie. I also watch informational videos online.

I'm vegetarian and eat fish here and there. I would never try to tell anyone else how they should eat because everyone's body and nutritional needs are different. I eat healthy overall with a balance of protein, veggies and clean carbs, but have no problem helping someone dominate a pizza or some fries occasionally.  😀  Due to our skies, air, water and soil being continuously compromised and tampered with, the nutrient value of the food we eat is less than it should be. I take a good multivitamin, Vitamin-D and other supplements to make sure I'm not deficient in any of the essentials. I do strength training around 3 times a week.  

Within the past two decades, I've done a great deal of introspection, 'Soul searching' and mind and spirit-type of work on letting go of anything from childhood or the past that may have been figuratively 'weighing me down'. Ever since my 20's, I've said to myself "I need to be able to reflect at the end of a year or 5 years on how I've become a better Me" and have kept that mindset since then. I am always learning, growing and in Gratitude.

I was raised with Christianity which I left many years ago and I do not follow, nor am I an active member of any religion. Saying "I'm spiritual", though applicable, seems a bit overused because it seems to have lost its meaning over the years. I'm very much interested in deeper metaphysical subjects, like the topic of when a Soul leaves the body and intends and plans to leave the reincarnation deception cycle to permanently exit this matrix construct rather than stay here for another round for our energy to continue contributing to the operation of this 'place'. You know, light-hearted subjects like that.

I'm very comfortable and content with my own company but would welcome a Soul Nourishing relationship with a straight man who is not religious, has never and would never accept the 'injections from 2020 + 2021' into his body, has a healthy lifestyle, has excellent communication skills, is kind and thoughtful, has a great sense of humour, is interested in sustainability and ponders deeper timeline/historical/metaphysical subjects (like the Tartarian empire, parallel timelines and dimensions, The Terra Papers, Agartha, stargates, portals, Project Looking Glass, hidden ancient texts, HAARP, resets, Lemuria, cryptids, Project Blue Beam and so many related topics).

Well, I think that's a decent summary to get an idea of who I am. My pictures are from the past 2 years and one is from 3 years ago. The one without glasses was taken 2/17/25.
None of my pictures have been photoshopped or edited. I left the wrinkles and freckles in.  
Thanks for reading.
