I am a nature-freak and fierce conservationist. I have a very inquisitive nature: I like natural things that leave a lasting impression on all my senses: the smell of rain, wood, coffee, winter, watermelon, the texture and color of sand, a baby s hair; a sunny day in the heart of mountains with someone serene and curious; kids whispering in the library; Hazelnut ice-cream, eel, chicken byriani, sushi; the most beautiful car for me is a car with someone I love in it; My favorite flowers are the ones that are not yet cut, and more then anything, I am intrigued by loyalty, flexibility, integrity, creativity, gentleness, compassion and culture. The first thing I notice about a person is his/her demeanor and then the rest. I think of every new person i meet as a trip to a foreign country, and I think it would be better to start a relationship on the premise that we are all imperfect and try to make friends.
While I am environmentally conscious, I am not judgemental, and respect everybody's choices, understanding that there are reasons for those choices that not might be obvious to me. So, I try to be supportive to all the things that people that cross my path choose to do, as long as they don't hurt others. I am afterall a counselor at heart, and fully committed to respecting people's choices. Furthermore, I am "a work in process" myself, and I have not arrived to the final destination on all issues. So, I try to leave room to improvement, lessons, and change as long they are delivered respectfully to me.
I am a Romanian-American, but I don't represent neither Romania, nor America. So don't blame me for things that happened in the past, or even in the present. Define me based on who I am, or better yet, courteously allow me to define myself.
For most of my life I saw meaning in helping others, and my profession as a family counselor until recently, was a purpose that took over my life. Helping others was deeply moving and satisfying, but I want to rediscover all that I can be and god s plan for me, as I know that each day is a gift. They say that an unexamined life, is not worth living. May I meet you, and may we give each other the boldness to be all that we were meant to be.
