Loving life

54 years old, having lived with HIV since 1985, half of my life.

I have a very positive outlook on life, along with that I do not fear death. During my many years I sat with so many friends, loved ones holding hands until they were gone. My motto has always been "A Friend in need is a Friend Indeed".

I like you have been poz for a long time, I found out in 1982, 3 years after leaving high school, I was headed down the wrong path for so long I never had a chance to do a lot of my life plans, I can tell you having a great team to take care of me, and doing a lot of study's, my favorite the vacations from the drugs, I live undetected now for over 20 years,,, but I'm tired and I'm looking for my purpose in life, I wish to find a love to spend the rest of my life with, I thought I did 14 years ago, he and I were not poz, but unrelated cancer took him away in 2011 and I have be lost since, I'm ready for the next chapter, but its hard to chance others perspectives and see me as me and not like I'm going to die tomorrow.
