If you seek some well-heeled and materialistic person please look else where.
If for that matter you seek someone who is spiritual, non materialistic, Look
no further. I walk a deeply spiritual path, though I do not adhere to any major or minor religion.
I am a real man not the macho type. And have been called dangerously
intellectual, an amazing man, a great bear of a man and just delicious.
I do not seek a mix of soul mate, lover, friend and companion etc.
This is a very rare thing and one is lucky to find it.
If you seek this mix then please look elsewhere but I fear you may never find.
I enjoy so much in this life.
From reading the works of Rumi and Tagore to eating dark chocolate and making bread.
This is only a small reflection of me to know me more why not get in contact.
Let's see if we walk the same path together.
Peace love and light.x.x.

Another fine day though I feel there will be a slight change in the weather as it is a bank holiday weekend. Though to be honest I would not even had know it was one but for the fact yesterday was the 1st may and that it is mention upon the calendar. The place I work is only closed on two days in the year that is Christmas day and Easter Sunday.
It seems we cannot shop enough. For the shop will be full as usual. Oh well!!!
Some people ask me now and then why I am a vegetarian. It is not an easy answer really I became a vegetarian this time round some four years ago now.
Primarily as I live on my own, and eschewed the freezer and microwave. These I found were not really necessary. And trying to buy food for one person is a bit of a bugger at times, what with the BOGOFs and the like I would like to only pay for one item at half price rather than have two items and the price of one.
Not that I actually buy much shopping where I work just a few basics like butter, cheese, pulses and of course the all important tea and a few types of that. And one or two other things.
But also I just got bored with the meat and fish that is sold, for a few reasons.
One is the fact it has little taste now, most is intensively farmed and well chickens are in my book like tofu but with feathers lol.
Absolutely no flavour at all, it takes on the tastes and flavours of what ever is added.
And there is talk of Okaying the feeding of processed pigs to chickens, we had BSE here in the UK and that would never have happen if they never fed the beef cattle animal by products for cattle are herbivores they may eat the odd insect while munching grass but that is all.
And on the whole in a super market you get a choice of pork, beef, lamb, or chicken and little else where is the hare and rabbit and the wide selection of game that can be had. Yes there are time when it finds its way into the freezer and cold dept of the meat department but not often.
And as for the fish counters, the fish is getting smaller something I have noticed over the past twenty or so years. And again it is all sea fish what happened to carp this was in a way farmed a bit lie salmon. There was a place I used to fish and attached to the house was a carp pond the house was Elizabethan and the pond supplied fish to the house in those times and later.
But I digress over fishing has caused much of our fish stocks to become dangerously low.
It is not all one nations fault we are all to blame for this. We plundered the fish stocks especially herring and now we pay the price we should have took only what ever we needed and no more but the smell of money is intoxicating to many and causes exploitation.
I remember as a boy seeing sprats shimmering along the breakers when fishing and the mackerel chasing after them to feed upon them.
But now it is a rare sight.
The other reason I do not eat meat is sort of spiritual if you observe hunter-gatherer societies around the world they only ever take wat they need and no more, and either asking permission to kill the animal or giving a reason why the animal must die.
The bones and remains are taken back out into the bush to buried as a form of respect to the animal.
If I was in that position of hunting for my food this I would do. For I would only take what I needed and no more and it is that connection that is difficult to describe that one has with the prey.
The hunters will often say they are going out and never hunting for fear it will spook what they seek.
We live in a society where we have the choice of how we eat, whether we are carnivores, omnivores or herbivores the choice is easily ours.
Many of us give little regard on what we eat or where it comes from and to be honest if many knew what went on behind the scenes we would be more cautious and a lot more vocal on what went on but such is life.
I often mention to people that food is fuel for our bodies and would they put low-grade fuel in their car or good fuel. And the same goes for food.
Well on that I am away for tea and some toast.
Be well and blessings on all. For it is a fine evening and I think time to sit out or at the very least wander up the garden.
Blessed be, peter XXXXX
