Greetings and salutations (you get a cookie if you understand the reference)! Yāall can call me Cy for now. Iām 5ā10ā, light blonde with a ginger mustache (genetics are funny), blue eyes, average build currently working on the belly. Happy to exchange more recent photos once we start talking ā a few older ones are on my profile.
Iāve been a USPS rural carrier for about eight years. The job has taught me consistency, patience, and responsibility, but Iām actively working toward a career transition over the next year or so.
I grew up between Baptist and Pentecostal churches, which forced me early on to ask difficult questions and build a faith that was truly mine. Then, several years ago, I was baptized into the Orthodox Church. Not because of the traditions, but instead, for the reverence, mystery, and grace lived out in community (I couldāve just as easily become Anglican, Lutheran, Catholic, or Non-Denom, had the community I sought been there). It felt more real than the other churches I attended at the time. That said, itās not perfect, nor do I expect it to be perfect. My Bible sometimes gathers dust, and prayer can feel like Iām whispering into the void. But I keep showing up, because He never promised itād be easy.
Iām looking for a woman whoās deeply rooted in Christ, emotionally mature, adventurous, and intentional. Someone who laughs easily, loves faithfully, stands firm in her convictions, and wants to build a life marked by hospitality, prayer, and growth together.Ā
Her past doesnāt define her; growth does. Tats or piercings? Theyāre just adornments; she shines regardless because her true beauty isnāt skin-deep (not that I don't find outer beauty as attractive as much as the next guy). Iād eventually like to settle in a city. Country life is slowly eroding my sanity. She wants to build a life steeped in prayer, worship, and real adventure: mountain hikes, road trips, and quiet nights in the garden or kitchen filled with friends and family. Kudos if sheās into motorcycling (or open to trying).
I have many hobbies and interests, but here are the main five:
ā Motorcycling: thereās nothing quite like riding on two wheels, with wide open roads, and the mechanical simplicity compared to cars. I ride for that raw sense of focus you only get when itās just you, the wind, and the engine purring. Nothing beats riding across the country or carving through the Rockies at sunset, chasing an escape from daily life and basking in the wonder of God's vast creation.
ā Gardening: I relish the gardening season when I can put my hands into the dirt, plant my seedlings, and watch as life grows throughout summer; building something that takes patience and consistency. Thereās something about planting, tending, harvesting, and sharing meals from what youāve grown that just feels fulfilling.
ā Hiking: I grew up near the mountains, pine forests, and quiet trails. I like earning the summit views; pushing uphill, breathing deep in the crisp mountain air, foraging for wild berries, and taking in creation without distractions.
ā Writing: pouring thoughts onto the page; stories, ideas, lyrics, and reflections. I enjoy building worlds, exploring faith and meaning, and shaping thoughts into something lasting. It's how I process life, and sometimes craft tales worth retelling.
ā Cooking: I feel like I pray and chat with God most when Iām turning basic ingredients into something nourishing in the kitchen. Whether itās grilling, sautĆ©ing, or experimenting with flavors. I love making hearty meals for friends/family, sharing laughs over the stove, and creating moments around the table that feel like home and hospitality. I like feeding people well; good food, good conversation, and Iām always sad when everyone has to go home.
Anyway, a little about me:Ā
By day, I serve my community by delivering mail down quiet neighborhood roads; steady, patient (yet high-paced and demanding) work thatās shaped my character. Off the clock, I chase the extraordinary: motorcycles, mountain air, open sky (or lately at the gym with my friend). Iām wired for adventure but grounded enough to love quiet evenings, good books, and cooking for the people I care about.
Friends call me humble and grounded (or an eldritch being). My godfather likens me to a fall wind or a speeding bikeās blur, pulling leaves in its wake. Family? āCharming idiot.ā Iāll take it⦠minus the charming part.
As I mentioned before, Iām not perfect. I have my faults and issues, there are days where Iāll just rot in bed because plans fell through as an example. But every day I try to improve, even when it just looks like standing against the winds of life, and not moving forward. Iād be more than happy to discuss some of that in DMs.
I tend to geek out over Spider-Man stuff, games, and cutting edge (and experimental) tech.
I travel when I can (saving up currently to visit Japan by the end of this year, even if I have to starve myself to do so), read (audiobooks mostly, so I guess listening) constantly, and am training my body to be stronger than it was the day before (can barely walk some days from forgetting to stretch after a long workoutā¦). I value becoming sharper, steadier, and more capable with time.
I'm open to relocation if it makes sense. I go where God leads; helmet in one hand, backpack in the other.Ā As for long distance, Iāve prayed and thought long and hard on this. Iād say North and South America, Europe, and Asia Iād be okay with. I don't consider most of the US/Canada/Mexico as long distance per se, because usually a 3-day weekend drive gets me to both coasts and back.
As for age range, 20-34 +/- a couple of years. It's more about maturity/self-discipline than anything else.Ā
If any of this piqued your interest, Iād love to hear your story. Whatās something God has been teaching you lately, or whatās an adventure youāve always wanted to take?
P.S. Fun fact of the month, August has no US federal holidays, but August first is Colorado's birthday.
