Riddle For Single Women

If you find yourself waking up at a place. where a card is left on the bed with an invitation to see an opera with a private balcony to see Puccini or Verdi, what would you wear that evening?

If you were playing an RPG game, which character would you play?

If yoga is what you like to do, what is your favorite pose and why?

If your man took you on a vacation to stay in Stockholm for a few days, where would you go?

The Alchemists Among Us(A Short Story)

The beauty of this world are the people who come to help and make this world a better place. They are everyday people of all walks of life. They validate messages for others. They go through alot of set backs and emotional trauma.

They gain wisdom to move forward with certainty. They are the heroes that give us hope. These people are out there seeking those who need answered prayers, thoughts and indecision.

They can be a young child or an older person. It doesn't matter where these people come from. They can be strangers or drifters.

They have a special ability to see into a situation and bring out the best in people. Those who are asleep will not receive the messages. Those who are aware and awake will bring truth to the situation.

A conversation with an alchemist happen many years ago in the City of Seal Beach, CA. There was a Ruby's Diner on the pier. A man was walking along the pier after having coffee from Bogart's Coffee. He was troubled. He did not know what to do and was running out of options.

A grandfather and his grandson was fishing and caught a stingray. This man walked up and was curious about the catch.

He asked the little boy about catching something. The little boy was very happy. He was ecstatic!
The grandfather walked up to the man and started talking to him.

He said " It seems to be you have alot on your mind these days. My grandson here has found his happiness by catching a stingray. Life doesn't always give us what we want. We just have to keep casting our rods to receive something better. We cannot see what is down in the ocean. But we can always move to different parts of the ocean to catch what we want. If we don't get what we want, there is something better for us out there. We have to keep doing what we need to do to reach that catch."

The man just pondered more about what this old man has told him.

Yoga Thoughts

I notice during yoga, there are some people who just want to do one pose which is pigeon pose which opens the hips. What happens when your hips are open and pigeon is too easy? You ask for more of it? Wrong, you challenge yourself to do other poses and bring balance to your practice.

There are some poses I am working on and it is okay to ask to do the same ones but after awhile you don't get the full benefits because you ask for the same thing. Now for abs, it's okay to do it everyday because you need a strong core when you do other things.

Yoga taught me to keep going and to keep trying. Everyday is different. Just because I do well in one pose, does not mean I can do it the next day. A good example is my first handstand next to the door. I just felt like doing it and I did it.

Next couple of days? It did not happen. I couldn't do it because of factors. It's okay to take a step back and let the body adjust even if you decide to do other poses. Your body is learning to remember how to do a pose.

It's not how fast or how perfect you do a pose but to grow and expand your body. Your body is learning muscle memory and it helping people get stronger and flexible. I will say this again, for single men and women, yoga is a great way to meet other singles and to network with others. Just commit to yoga and you will love the benefits :) I love meeting single women during yoga :)


In Circles

I did not understand why my old jobs had me do almost everything for them with no title, respect and salary. I was fortunate to learn alot from all of my jobs even though I was not happy. The thing I can tell people from what I have seen is to learn from every job paid or not.

Get to know people and network with them on LinkedIn. Be yourself with everyone no matter if they are the janitor of the company. Do you homework and trust your intuition. Your attitude will attract the people in your circle.

If you don't want certain influences, then go somewhere and change your attitude. Start using your head. If you need to move to a new area or place, do it. Don't stay in a certain place if all you attract are the people you don't want in your life.

Breaking that circle will take lots of faith, action and risk. It is all worth it when you move up in the world!

Self Service

It baffles me when I take a yoga class and I meet single women, I noticed a certain woman who would try get into a conversation with the women I want to get to know. Yes, this person likes women. I don't like to feel like I have to compete with someone who loves women.

This woman should feel confident about herself in meeting women that is attracted to her rather than making up stories and lies to keep the women I like from getting to know me, Of course women are closer with women in general.

I also feel that one day, the truth will come out and the women who missed their chance to get to know me will look for me and it will be too late. By that time, a special woman will be in my circle.
