‘A picture speaks a thousand words …. and movies leave lasting impressions… While perhaps the reality may be different the impact of the Wild West movies was quite a phenomenon.
This is a photo inspired poem dedicated to all the Celluloid Cowboys’.
She seems calm and composed and at complete ease .
A pretty picture of her face framed by her curly locks.
She seems to know more than she wants to tell
Her smile seems to sense much more as well
Her truth is hers alone, as her lips may seal
Oh! but what all a good capture can reveal.
Our personna is so transparent on the verge
Of Shadows thrown open to light
The inner and outer may merge
And unmask thoughts that may be shut tight.
Shadows of past out in the open today
And capture thoughts held at bay
All it takes to know is a shutters click
In perfect timing of what to shoot & pick

This picture was shared on one of my networks in Social Media and I felt compelled to take a second glance …. the picture spoke much and my pen had to flow to capture the thoughts on this pretty capture.
What does it take to accept everything that is happening in life as an unfolding mystery.
All of you!
And when that happens
No storm is unsurmountable
No pain is unmanageble
No hurt is unforgivable.
Yes it takes all of you
To complete this circle of life and living.
And in every step you take towards realisation
You are only another step closer home.
To decide not to stress and focus on things that you may not be in control of is a step in understanding the meaning of true acceptance as not resigning the self to fate but to accept it as part of phase in the ebb and flow of tides in life.
A few reflections…
Acceptance is the key when life happens beyond your comprehension.
Action is the key when there is something you sense you understand enough.
Acknowledgement is the key while sharing goodwill in trust and hope.
Appreciation is the key of manifesting abundance.
Accept life as a mystery that will dawn
All else is history that’s gone in the dusk.
All is well in time always.

This post has come as an afterthought when I came across a particularly poignant story shared by a good friend caught in turmoils of time and yet being brave enough to ease into acceptance and appreciate the good happening around by sending goodwill and hope to those around him in thoughts words and deeds.
I know there are many who put out ‘All of themselves ‘ to brave out the odds every single day …. My salute to such inspiring souls. Stay ever blessed!
This post is simply an announcement of Workshops on Mindfulness, Neuroscience , Introspection that may interest you or anyone in your network. for a good friend who mentioned about it to me this morning …..

It is scheduled for October 4_6th, at BSE hall Mumbai.
So for anyone interested here is the link and more details .
Celebrating the little things matter so today this 200 posts here on wordpress certainly feels wonderful to know😊
Yes this small but a sure step ahead on wordpress feels encouraging in my foray into the world of writing….
A heartfelt share of my thoughts at this moment in time…
Well! Looking back…. two hundred posts is a body of work indeed for someone like me who just expressed without any self inflicted pressure of time or gain.Although it is just another number actually, I guess I must also remember to pat myself on my back for caring to invest my time in writing these posts and enjoying every bit of it. Right from sensing and cueing in on the invoked need to write , creating an article, learning to edit in trial and error and ultimately publishing and of course to answering with deep gratitude, all your kind comments and feedbacks that egged me on my journey some more.So much learning in the sharing.
Thank you to all my readers😊
To someone starting to publish articles here on WordPress in or any place else , besides the technicalities involved of which I am still a learner, I would just say follow your heart to express authentically and hit the publish button to share your uniqueness to the world. There is always a reason why we do so… there is always a wealth of learning in the sharing and every blog post will take you through to where you want to go .
When I started writing my first few posts I had no clue as to what it meant, where I was heading or even the fact that I would be writing these many posts here at all. All I knew was that every time I would be inspired by a share or a photograph,an inner message of immense meaning would somehow start inducing me to write as on an outpour . At times I would be surprised afterwards of that depth of conviction that occurred to me at that moment to reflect and write on … So as if to test myself I revisited my own articles and verses and tried to check if they meant something on the same lines once again in time . And not surprisingly … I had not only the same feelings but some new meanings to add on as well . So yes some of my work I enjoyed updating as well in time. Feel free to try this open ended approach on your own art and creative works and evolve as you go . There is always more than what meets the eye .
Another passion I always loved to indulge was to draw and paint ….As I tinkered a bit with colours and brushes in real life I also wanted to see if could express my love for colours and movement in symmetry and that’s how the Circle Art Expressions was born . The more I drew circles the more closer home I felt … It was as if all of what I was feeling could be expressed in those many dimensions and the multitude of colours that my emotions evoked in me.I have felt one with it and positively inspired for days and perhaps more
My love for the art of movement is so much a part of whatever I do and for that I am deeply grateful to have been able to connect with it and expressing through words, art as well as training people through dance education . Every step in these directions feels like homecoming and so very thankful for every opportunity that has come my way .
Yes as I understand all this simply as the start of something new now, the journey that began with you all …and as I hope to continue with it my heartfelt gratitude goes to you all my readers, many of whom have turned into dear friends along the way in the journey we have travelled together. I thank each and all of you for your supportive and enriching insights discussions messages, feedbacks and creative collaborations which have made their mark in time .
To all those who have started writing here like me … trust your spirit and write with all of your soul . Support comes when you least expect and the outpouring encouragements can light up your life’s dull moments.
Often felt very grateful for all the good words love and blessings and inspirations received along the way. My request to you is to remember to share something positive and make the world smile a little more as you & care about life and living a little more .
This above digital artwork Titled ‘Circles of thoughts:9 is a creative interpretation of encircling thoughts, The verses that follow is the ninth part of my series of micro poems on interconnecting thoughts.
