Spiritual woman open to a friendship that develops into a destined purpose.

I'm an educator who is passionate about motivating our youth, meeting great people, and enjoying life. I am a vegetarian (24 years), a lover of African and Caribbean culture (food, music etc...); spoken word, theatre, and traveling. I believe in a healthy mind and body and feel it is imperative that we respect the temples GOD gave us (to include what we put in our physical bodies, what we think, what we say, and how we feed ourselves spiritually). Laughter is healing so I make a point of finding something to laugh about daily. I am NOT looking for a Christian--but someone who practices a religion similar to mine--Pan African. A chivalrous & confident gentleman. Someone who is spiritual, respectful and treats me like the Queen that I am. A man who is honest, compassionate, intellectually stimulating, and a HOPEFUL romantic. I am old-fashioned when it comes to dating ie: A lady should be pursued and/or "courted"...Someone who is a confident, ALPHA-male, and who absolutely loves to laugh!
