I have been dating around for a while now on good old Match, Bumble, Hinge, and Boo. Then, I realized I had created a library of greetings for the not-so-faint of heart. Not so far out, it had occurred to me that I could share these out, perhaps with passionate word-smith hands. The words would soothe a gentle soul.
1. Your Dating Scene Basic Hi
Hi, how is your week going so far?
If you do that, you are pretty much guaranteeing yourself a swipe left.

It was fun putting the dating compliments together because I had compiled them over time and found them successful. Way back when I had written a similar post in a list style; suppose you’re looking for more ways to give a compliment. Check out 20 Ways to compliment dating apps. – Vyechi. Meanwhile, my triumph depends on the profile and may not be yours. At least, that is what most of these sentence gurus say. With that, I wish you good fortune and happiness in your relationships.

Welcome to meaningful connection, where I share June resonating ideas, thoughts, and realizations for those who want to grow mindfully in 6 mins. I will try to answer the following questions; let me know how I do. Meanwhile, I left you some bonus thought-provoking questions.
What is the significance of Vipassana meditation?
How does the graph view in Obsidian help with the author’s publishing workflow?
Meaningful Connection
👓 What’s New?
So what’s up? I started searching in my vault for fresh ideas from the last month, and on my graph view, I had a double connection from 💭 Vipassana at Burmese Meditation Center 10 Day 2023-6-29. Similarly, I wanted to speak to my therapist about feeling good when in the flow state. In particular, I discovered that I feel stronger and more confident when I experience progress. For example, during my stay at the Burmese temple, I didn’t understand the words or the language, but I made myself worthwhile by practicing the 💭 Mahasi Vipassana meditation.
In the past, I would allow visions of negativity to control my mind. In the present, I’m doing my best to notice the impermanence of thoughts and practice being free and awake during the suffering. Buddhism doesn’t have a place for Godly worship. Similarly, I believe my ⛰️ Higher Power is inside.
In their belief, believing in a God is based on fear. For example, I am going to hell if I don’t do XYZ. Similarly, I believe in a loving Higher Power, which is inside of me that guides me to a non-fearing authority figure. That is why I don’t need to follow a human God. I don’t want to do idols. My higher power is inside me. A robust and loving force to develop. I want to stay open;
Moving away from Buddhism momentarily, I sought new connections under reflections and tasks. I noticed that 💭 Im motivated to work when I do the things I love
. I remember feeling curious when it occurred to me. When I work, for me to do good work, I need to be fulfilled spiritually. Then I thought about it’s time to change jobs. Then the thought led me to learn when I switch between the carrot and stick, and work better. Finally, I noticed a task to speak to my therapist. I’m going to stop here with the reflections and move to resonators.
🔔 What is Resonating?
During June, I chose something that I rated high and now is in my life. In such a case 📥 Keto Constipation DrBerg Explains Constipation on Keto Diet because gut biology is complicated, and it is easy to make a mess of things. 👤 Dr. Berg left a few tips for me to find healing. He suggested reducing cruciferous vegetables, fat, nuts and seeds, and dairy with high lactose and casein. While lowering, I need to see how my body reacts and mindfully increase each area to improve my mineral absorption. During the video, he suggested using cabbage and spinach instead of kale because it’s easier for the body to process.
Meanwhile, I can combine kimchi and kifer so that my gut breaks down the veggies. Also, Dr. Berg’s book New Body Type Guide recommended I increase my stomach acid to prevent the bacteria from growing in the small intestine and prepare the veggies for further processing in the colon. Also, if bile is less because the gallbladder or liver has a problem, it’s best practice to notice that issue. Then adjust my diet to prepare the body, such as adding fennel seeds, eating less dark leafy greens, and walking or standing after a meal.
More so, I found a few similar articles related to constipation. I tried to eat more fat at some point, but my liver could not keep up with the load. Then, I found an article What to Eat to Produce More Bile in the Liver, which suggests eating more celery and radish. Also, I love adding chia seeds to my kifer and noting that chia is a fiber, too, so it is good to eat it in moderation. To prepare your own, check out How to Soak Chia Seeds – The Ultimate Guide. Finally, I remember making my kimchi too spicy, which might have increased my constipation. To learn more about spicy foods, see the article Understanding the Effects of Spicy Food on the Body. Alright, let’s move on to what’s growing.
🌻 What’s Growing?
For June, I will choose a sprouting thought that needs to be elaborated upon further. Of such interest is 💭 using the open graph view in Obsidian to find topics to discuss during my monthly connection. I remember feeling inspired because, in context, I needed a way to find relevant information and stronger relationships. Also, I asked the question, is there a way to query which files had incoming links in the last month? I want to see what my mind has been curious about in the month. For example, I can find thoughts using the following query in the graph view tag:(#thought/reflections) -file:(Feeling) line:(Created: 2023-06). The experience leads me to learn that graph view is powerful in guiding my publishing workflow, and I plan to continue to use it to inform my blog post. Alright, let’s move on to mental nourishment.
🥑 Mental Nourishment
Throughout June, I had many thoughts coming and going, and I was able to capture the reflections, musings, and memories. Of such interest is 💭 Love goes through the fourth dimension of time. I have the ‘reflection’ linked to my mind area because I’m trying to be mindful of Love. I remember feeling curious, happy and inspired. These feelings came because Love goes through the fourth dimension of time. I was watching Interstellar and got some inspiration. Then, many thoughts came and went as I explored the topic. Here are several examples, first about transferring between spaces at the speed of gravity. Then Love is attraction, as so is gravity. Loving somebody is the energy that can make an instant transmission, like in Dragon Ball Z, where Goku can teleport or move between time and space. Love is the fourth dimension that glues gravity and transcendence between ‘dimensions.’
Last but not least, I was left with a question, what is it like moving to the fifth dimension? These points taught me that shows inspire me to write about human emotion. Finally, I need to keep an eye out for nuggets of gold.
🚿 Stream of Consciousness
While writing June’s meaningful connection, I noticed I wasn’t as hungry. I got 💭 Worried Feeling and started doing the walking meditation using the Mahasi Vipassana to gain insight. I remember Dr. Berg saying not to eat unless the body tells me it’s hungry. Yesterday my eating routine got changed a bit in the evening. I wasn’t hungry till 6 pm. I usually eat around 3 pm. My guess was it had something to do with overeating bread. The following day, as insights came, I decided to drink warm water with fennel, lemon, and ginger. I’m hoping that will get my system running smoothly and on schedule.
During my second day of writing meaningful connections after my walk, I installed Pokemon Go and removed it. Man, it’s so addictive. I need to be careful because an hour can go by so fast, and I’m not doing what I need to do to finish writing the post. Luckily I know how to meditate, and insight saved me again. I hope I don’t install the app.
In other news, I want to add a sidebar with a few boxes while visitors read. They might see some of the callouts. I was planning on adding the coaching for nutrition and donation boxes. The donation area is attractive because I draw a line for each donating person. Also, I write out the initials to give them credit. I am still deciding if I will do it, cos I like the space for reading. The menu on the top allows visitors to do those tasks.
Well, that’s it for June; feel free to share your ideas or if you have something on your soul. If you want to know how I became an artist, subscribe and follow my blog for more.

Welcome to meaningful connection, where I share April’s resonating ideas, thoughts, and realizations for those who want to grow mindfully.
Meaningful Connection
👓 What’s New?
Well, ever since I stopped journaling my achievements and switched to more of what’s fresh on the plate, I had to be more creative. As of late, I am a fantastic cook. I can make Kimchi, Golden Liquid with fermented rice. I love the sour, hot spicy, rich, flavored kimchi mixed with crispy veggies. I’m learning a ton about nutrition and glad to find that the knowledge is quickly becoming wisdom. When I dated my previous ex, her mother was a witch doctor in Chinese cooking. Since I love the environment so much, I have a strong affinity for that passion.
Meanwhile, my most significant achievement is learning how to flip food while sautéing. I love it cos it adds so much joy to my morning breakfast. While sauteing, I feel the excitement while the food lands back on the pan. Moving off from the cooking vibe, I recently spruced up my YouTube channel branding. I’m thinking about reading my blog posts. I know of a blogger who had some success in doing so. Anyhow, let’s move into resonating thoughts.
🔔 What is resonating?
During April, I recently touched CoDA, the making choices book. Before jumping into the reading, CoDA stands for Co-Dependents Anonymous—a place for healing relationships and seeking a healthy mindset. In comparison, I was explicitly creating my affirmations. While searching for what changed, I came across a question. How can I include my feelings while thinking about my obstacles? It was clever to have my Higher Power because my feelings could link to my ideas. Pausing is something hard for me. The thought universe as I grow and question what is happening in my mind. I come to realize that I have a choice. The ability to reflect on my actions and learn. Nothing new; what’s special? Well, if I feel my feelings and don’t shove them away. I can link them to other events in my life. Then create a strong bond and grow. Therefore, if I bring my boundaries and goals into the picture and will come to know my Higher Power.
🌻 What’s Growing?
As April rages on, my greenhouse continues to receive fresh herbs. Recently while moving my obsidian vault, I discovered that Windows likes to hide folders. I was trying to clone my repository, and it would fail to connect. Later I realized that I had to move the hidden git folder, which tells GitHub what to fetch. Therefore, it was time to amend my readme file and add some documentation to troubleshoot that problem out of existence.
Nevertheless, compared to another note, I discovered a reflection with the following question. What are some things I realized when I got mature? I came across the question on a dating community. However, what’s interesting is becoming an adult, accepting things for what they are, and not trying to control them. I felt strong because I’m in CoDA, so I know it’s a process that comes and goes. In other words, progress and not perfection.
Meanwhile, I learned that I must care for my basic needs to see any progress. Therefore, I continue seeking inspiration from CoDA Community and my soul coach and therapist sessions. Thus, I’m going to move on to the nourishment part next.
🥑 Mental Nourishment
As I strapped myself in for the mental nourishment, I understood a new combined threat. I feel fear while writing those words, and I need to find a way to remove or create a new section. It was a good idea to combine this section with the above. I will have to find a way to avoid duplication. However, I will focus on something other than tackling that issue right now. I love the note on what I found attractive in my women. I was dating Jul last year, and I made a list. As I was making the list, I felt delighted and had a strong love for her. I love that she has jet black hair, traveling vibes, a body shape that is so huggable, helpful when I’m not feeling good, fun facial expressions, easygoing, and recharges me when I spend time with her. While I miss her so much and wish she was in my life forever, I did get to explore the person who would give me the kind of love I desire. The plan is to seek a personality that makes me feel good about being me. Let’s move toward the end of the fun in the consciousness section.
🚿 Stream of Consciousness
For the close of April, I’m seeking to learn to cook my remaining scraps while being environmentally balanced. Every weekend, I pushed myself to the brink of breaking because I overpack my schedule and don’t give myself enough room for spiritual maintenance. I’m always thinking about fixing or tweaking something for the better, such as utilizing my resources in the Obsidian. However, I found a small silver lining during my sleeping hour. I started praying my 30 points around my stomach while connecting with my Higher Power. As soon as I start channeling the Healing Code, I immediately repair issues of the heart, which brings me deeper sleep and a bright future ahead.
Sidebar, I’m planning to live stream while I try to read my blog post. So, feel free to jump in if it starts or catch the highlights later attached to this blog post. Also, below is my latest creation from Japanese folklore – Kasa Jizou.
Well, that’s it for April; feel free to share your ideas or if you have something on your soul. If you want to know how I became an artist, subscribe and follow my blog for more.
When I look at the image of God, I remember a time I cried at Hill Sung Church. Then, I played my harmonica to the toon of Way Maker by Leeland. Then, I hoped to find a love that would understand my feelings and hold me tighter than my beating heart.
Soon, I realized that my heart was my trustworthy source of true love. It stays with me no matter what I do. It continues to beat and relentlessly keeps me moving forward.
A true love
When I think of God’s image, I want to find a way to love the Lord as my heart loves me. I like the same type of warmth to flow out of me.
Betrayed are my feeling, but I remind myself that I put ‘me‘ in that position. So, for now, I’m looking to unwind that thread and find the wisdom from a few good sources to keep myself falling into that hole.
Source of love
For the moment, I’m reading Life Without Limits by Nick Vujicic. I love the enjoyment emitting from his soul when he meets Danial, a boy in a similar situation as him. Nick was born without limbs and with parents who almost gave him up. During a presentation, Nick speaks about his no limitations despite not having any limbs. The little one has the biggest warm smile on him. So many have cried in the joy that there is hope for us.
From my bible study group, the image of God needs to come from inside me. In other words, I need to give myself entirely and love Christ. For the moment, I’m Jewish and in the middle of conflict if I want to make that move. However, I believe there is a God, and the Lord is watching over us.
To begin with, I decided to try out the experimental photo contest. As a matter a fact, on my way home today, I found this interesting graffiti art on the boardwalk. Not to mention, the message is strong and it’s not something you see everyday. Thus, let me know what you feel or think when you see this message?
