My description:
Living simply sans materialism or pretension is my way. Originally from New Jersey, I went to college and beyond in southern California but have spent most of my adult life in southern Arizona. I find the Sonoran Desert to be magical, and I hike a lot, but you can see beauty in most places if your mind is open to it. The beauty of any place, though, derives mainly from the people who populate it. Character traits I value include honesty and evenhandedness, loyalty, slowness to anger, and respect for all life. The latter includes wearing a mask, to protect both others and myself, during the pandemic! I help others whenever I can, although, whatever I do, I try to avoid the idols of self-validation and pride.
With my scientific background, I'm mostly a left-brained person, but I try to exercise the right half as well, although I fall a little short of being a polymath. I appreciate the contribution of art to life and especially the creativity behind it, although I like to view it not just for its aesthetic beauty but also as an extension of the person behind it. I'm guided by the concept of tzniut, not making oneself prominent, and I don't engage in social media. In fact, I try hard not to let technology control my life. I've striven to bring Jewish medicine and the values it represents to the world. In essence, it's a philosophy that regards medicine as a sacred vocation whose practitioners view their work as a calling, shunning any motivation that smacks of "what's in it for me?" It envisions a system that is safe for and in the best interests of patients, unlike the present system.
Headshot is from 7/22.
Seeking:
I have no shopping list, because an ideal relationship with friends or significant others is one in which you are thinking about what you can do for the other person, not about what that person can do for you. Shared values and a compatible way of life are what matter. As the French say, "Nos différences font notre richesse."
Thanks for reading!!
