Date men and women from United States / California / El Cerrito, 51 year old

Date a soulmate from United States. I've lead an adventurous life and lived abroad for much of my adolescence and adulthood. As a result, I've missed out on a lot of domestic pleasures, like having a family. I'm independent and resourceful, a good friend in all circumstances.
I'm looking for someone who enjoys life and retains an active curiosity for learning and exploring.
Someone who is kind, affectionate, sensual, honest and adventurous. A quick wit would be a nice plus but not necessary. I'm looking for a companion but not necessarily a partner.

I've been lucky to meet many nice guys on match, but obviously haven't found "the one" yet. Men I've met tell me most women have a list of criteria their looking for. I suppose we all do, but I don't think many guys would be able to accurately guess what the top items on my list are, so . . . just for fun I'll share them for all those interested in reading. Maybe it'll help us find eachother?
TOP 5 CRITERIA (not necessarily in any order) I'M LOOKING FOR IN A PARTNER:
- prefers all races for his date or has no race preference for his date since we are one human family
- believes in God and is genuinely accepting and respectful all the world's religions
- has raised his own or someone else's child(ren) and is a good father
- likes his job and (even if he complains about it sometimes) feels he's contributed in important ways to the community/society
- is reasonably psychologically and emotionally aware - at least of himself
So that's you. A little more about me. I've enjoyed a successful Human Resources career, specializing in employee benefits and retirement. Have been dabbling in acting for the past 30 years and am having fun seeing what more I can accomplish as actress. Would love to be forced to cut back to part time with the HR career because I'm getting so much acting work! Maybe you're now pursuing a passion you've always wanted to to more with?
I enjoy most all the arts, love easy hiking (which could be more accurately described as nature walks), don’t object to river rafting (the kind tame enough to take children along) and am fairly accomplished at horseback riding – all kinds, all terrains. I’m interested in seeing any good movie, regardless of genre and love going out to dinner and talking. I'd love to find a partner to share these and other activities with. Maybe cooking healthy organic meals at home, watching dvds, reading books? Maybe some of his special interests.
If this sounds generally good to you, I hope you'll write or wink soon.
