Q: What Do You Love Most About Being Single?

Free form life. No one to hassle me or criticize me or expect me to iron their shirt or do this or that for them. Solitude. Quiet. Space for ample learning and pursuing my own endeavors. No one's shirts to pick up or dirty socks or undies to launder. No need to be the chief cook, maid, and general servant for - yahoo! Only my dog to love and care for. He lets me be me and loves to go hiking and camping and daily walks. He keeps me healthy by me keeping him healthy. It's the perfect relationship :) I mean, I would be open to something even grander, but am not silly enough to expect it will ever come along, and I've not been looking for at least 10 years now. I'm very happy and content.

Q: Advice for Others?

Live life to your fullest. This is not a dress rehearsal, and life is too short to hold resentments, anger, guilt, fears or embarrasment. We are who we are, and we can always be better. If we were only half as good as most animals, we would be close to Divine.
