Hello,
How has your Tuesday been?
If you're like me then some days just go by so quickly before you know it the day is over. Today to recharge my batteries I took some time to meditate and find my center. If you are new to meditation then go on YouTube and search out meditation. There are many wonderful resources out there for us. And they're all FREE.
Today I thought I would talk about being OPEN. Sometimes life doesn't always work the way that we dreamed it would be. Often times, our plan B becomes the plan A. What I will share with you today is that Plan B can turn out to be pretty great.
I can see in my life where I have held on so tight to my plan A I wasn't open to well to anything. Not being open means not being in the flow. And we want to be in the flow. We want to feel all the love we can possibly allow. So today we need to BE OPEN.
BE OPEN to the possibilities that the Universe has available to us. BE OPEN to INFINITE POSSIBILITIES. BE OPEN. Let yourself feel hope, optimistic, joy and even love.
Let yourself be in the flow. It means you are expanding and allowing. Trusting that the Universe knows what she is doing and has your back. Being in the flow, trusting the Universe, you can't go wrong. You can achieve your heart's desire.
So BE OPEN. Enjoy your turn on earth. And discover adventure after adventure, That's what living is all about.
Today's Dating Tip: Be brave and be bold. You won't get that partner by sitting at home watching re-runs.
xoxo

Day 3 Part 2 Maria's Dating 101 - A Meet and Greet
It's me again!
I wanted to share with you that I had my first meet and greet with a man I met on one of the dating apps.
Now if you are like me, you get a little nervous because it's always a little unnerving to meet someone new. It's always best to be smart about the initial meetings. Maybe you will tell a trusted friend or family member. Just remember to tell someone. It wouldn't hurt to carry pepper spray or something you can use to protect yourself. Even better yet, take some self-defense classes.
Ok, now to share what I learned on today's meet and greet.
We met in a very public place. Also a great idea. We had decided to meet for drinks only. I felt good about this since it did not commit me to a long period of time.
First, he hugged me. Now I would have preferred if he asked first, but ok. I don't always getting hugging a stranger, but I went with it.
Second, he did not shut up. Any time I started talking he would always take over. Ugh.
Third, right off the bat he showed me the callouses on his hands. I am sure he was intending to show me how hard working he is. But come on! Don't do this. EVER.
Lastly, he did pay for our drinks. It didn't save the situation. But I was grateful for his generosity.
You can make chemistry. It just happens. What is really funny is that I saw some old friends at the very end and they thought I was with my DAD. Lol. This guy was 10 years older than me.
Well, got the first meet and greet out of the way. On to the next adventure
Thanks for listening!
Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Day 3 of Maria's Dating 101 (Know Your Worth)
Happy Labor Day Sweet Ones!
I hope that today is a day of rest for you. We all need some down time from our every day life. If you are working then I hope the day is blessed with only goodness.
Now if you remember from yesterday, we spoke on STAYING the COURSE. How did that feel for you when you were writing? Some times it is difficult to stay focused. We will always have distractions, but when we do, maybe we can glean a piece of knowledge from the distraction and own it as our own.
Today I thought I would share my thoughts and feelings on KNOW YOUR WORTH. You are a beautiful soul. You are meant to be on this earth at this time. You are perfect just as you are. NEVER, and I mean NEVER let another person make you feel less than beautiful. If you do my friends, you are giving your power away and we don't want that.
You have a lot to offer. And I am not just speaking of when you are in a relationship with your partner. I am talking about life. You are created perfectly so you can fulfill the mission you are here for. Sometimes that mission or purpose may take a while, but if you want to know what it is, you need to ask the the BIG GUY (God) or the Universe and if you get still you can discover what that purpose is.
During the dating season of your life, you may come across a lot of toads. Let's face it, we are human and won't be attracted to or perfect for every person we date. THAT'S OK. You will be perfect for the one who is perfect for you. And you know what? You can't rush perfection, so you gotta be patient. Even when it isn't easy. Remember STAY THE COURSE. It can help you here.
Okay, today's writing assignment - I hope by now you are keeping the notebook and pen close by. Writing is good for our souls. Today I am going to ask you to join me in writing about yourself. Write down all the qualities you love about yourself. Now, you are not writing about what you think someone else will think is good, you are writing about YOU. It may be easier to write yourself a love note and tell yourself how much you love You. This is important because when you KNOW YOUR WORTH, you won't settle for crap. You are valuable and you deserve to have someone in your life that sees your value.
Today's dating tip:
Honesty is always the best policy. Even when you think it may hurt someone else's feelings. If you can't be honest, then you need to ask yourself why.
Until next time.
xoxo

Day 2 of Maria's Dating 101 (Stay the Course)
Hello,
I'm back! How did the writing go? Did you find clarity as the pen touched the paper and the thoughts, feelings and ideas unfolded? Maybe, you felt blocked. I would suggest if you felt any kind of blockages, to write about those and remember to include your feelings as you write. You want to be able to recognize the blocks so you can remove them.
How did taking the selfie go? Did you have fun? If you're like me, it takes a really LONG time to take the perfect selfie. Remember you are publishing this for others to see so you want your selfie to be great. If you had your friend take the selfie, then did you like the picture? Friends are great! Especially when they are supporting you on your adventure.
Today I thought I would talk about "Staying the Course." What does this mean, you ask? I'll share with you what it means for me.
When you are on the dating apps, it's easy to be flattered because someone is finally paying attention to you. Maybe they are flirting with you online. They say all the right things and you begin to feel those warm fuzzy feelings that happen during the beginning stages of dating.
Those feelings are great, because it means you are opening up to the possibility that maybe, just maybe there is someone out there in this great big Universe that is perfect for you.
I will suggest you go back to the notebook and re-read what you wrote. Before you get in too deep or dive right into a situation with another person, take a look at what you wrote. I know for me, this grounds me back into reality and after being reminded of what I really want I can continue forward.
There will be many, many distractions as you embark of this adventure. That's normal. It's up to you to decided to take a detour or STAY THE COURSE. The easier path will always be to follow the diversions because they are easy and fun. Staying grounded in what you want, well that takes courage and determination.
As always, there are no right or wrong answers. Only you know what is best for you. If you take the detours you can always come back to the path you truly want. Staying the Course, being steady in what you want will always move you closer to the end results.
Today's writing assignment - remember the notebook and pen. Go find them and find the very best spot to write in and sit down. Close your eyes, get quiet and take several deep breaths and begin to write. We are going to write about what it feels like to STAY THE COURSE. What does it smell like? What does it feel like? What do you look like? What does the end result look like? Keep writing. Let everything come out. The creative juices are flowing. You got this!
I hope that the rest of your day is blessed and filled with all the goodness you will allow. Here is today's dating tip:
Always be true to yourself. You're beautiful and created just as you are suppose to be. That perfect partner is out there. Believe in You.
xoxo
