My Utopia

           My Personal Utopia would include several private acres, a charming Victorian home with a wrap-around porch and views of  the mountains and the water.  There would be very large, comfortable rocking chairs on the porch, and lots of Persian cats all about the property and in the house. If not in the Pacific NW, this paradise might exist somewhere in Europe.

           The inside would be incredibly cozy and warm, with a fireplace burning  in the winter, antiques, comfortable overstuffed chairs and loveseats, and a tree covered with bears, angels, and lights at Christmastime.   There would be presents everywhere for my loved  ones.

            Friends and family would come to visit often.  I would share this magical place with my lifemate.  We  would cuddle under the covers happily and often, and have extraordinary conversations--from daily living to the nature and origins of the Universe/s,  to spirituality. I'd be a bestselling author and be able to write full-time for a living, or not, as the mood struck me.

             In summer, I'd put on a custom-made wetsuit and swim with dolphins in the local waters or go whale watching.  I'd grow as fat as I (and my partner liked), while retaining my basic mobility.

My lifemate and I would spend much of the time in bed making love.
