Sometimes our light goes out but is blown into flame by another human being. Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this light.
Albert Schweitzer
Souls know not
What another soul has endured
For the life that is.
Thank those who have been there
And lived through the rough patches, which now has smoothed the path for you and me.

I wrote this poem back in time after an unexpected opportunity to travel set me off across exploring unforgettable places and spaces on my own.
Yesterday as I was conversing with one of my earlier dance student and friend now, he somehow reminded me of this poem again , as he has been traveling the length and breadth of India on a bike, covering over 80% of India.
While I wait to see his photo shares and hear more from him about his experience in the journey.
Thought of sharing my verses again.
Travel On
If you are given an opportunity to take a journey
Take it, for you meet many versions of you.
Along the road.
Some you cherish, some cherish you.
Some that change you and some that you change.
Fear not the travel or the traveling…
For one thing is certain
You come away enriched and wiser in every journey.
Travel to liberate yourself
From self assumed notions
To see the light on the other side
There is much to unlearn and unbox
As you travel yield in to the insights
Travel every once in a while if opportunity arises,
Take the chance,
You are richer in your explorations much as your experiences.
Travel on …

In the depths of darkness
Keep the faith on a new dawn
In the numerous wrongs
See the rights
Thank the good
Be grateful for it
Make it a practice of a life time
Know you’re in a better space.

What was freshness of springtime
Matures with the changing seasons
At times hot dry or humid summers makes life unbearable
Soon the downpour of rains flood the parched land with greens
Another autumn as orange rust leaves renew themselves
Winter chills brings it’s own white snow at will
Trees bereft of leaves lay bare their dark branches
Awaiting for another change of season.
And life goes on…

Calm eyes and ears
Resting and recovering
From relentless chaos
Blowing in the wind.
Seeing only a trickle
Of light and sounds
Of nature in harmony
To energize in hope
Once more.

Life is changing
Every minute
Life is never the same
Its ok to wait and lie a little low
You need to trust nature
To move and shift things
What was lost is gained again
What was your deepest pain
Becomes a point of pleasure.
Change is the only constant
My friend
Move beyond these limitations
Of this now
There is so much more to envision
So much more to accomplish.
Life is meant to flow!

To dance is to flow
To move with ease
Of connection.
The mystique of this art
Is in its movements
As much as in its magic.
Movements that speak
Where in the blink of an eye
The dancer and the audience
Are linked to emote and sense
The magic of the moves.

What feelings do you associate with the colour orange?
For me it’s an auspicious color of Optimism and enthusiasm.
Warm and welcoming
Energizing & radiant
Like a new dawn.
From the yellow orange
To the reddish orange
The tints and shades
Make a world of difference.
Thinking of an orange sun
Rising and setting
Marking day and night
But always hopegiving.

It’s the way of love, to accept and allow
It’s the way of love, to empower with hope
It’s the way of love, to sense the light of life.
It’s the way of love, to share from the heart.
For love is the gift of life.
And it’s the way of love, to be filled with gratitude.

Trustful Mentorship
The dynamics of mentor mentee relationship is one of trust and confidence.
Building trustful mentorship requires genuine love to help guide people for the better.
Besides the required skills and expertise, mentors having an inclusive, expansive and holistic approach while helping unique pathways for clients, adds to their repertoire to create trustful mentorship .
Clarity and integrity in communication & behaviour , excellent interpersonal skills and empathic attitude add value beyond the experience and expertise of the mentors.
It is important to acknowledge the influence a mentor can have on the mentees decisions be it at work or personal life.
Hence, a good understanding of ethics while handling conflicting opinions biases, & emotional triggers helps empower the mentee than exploit them.
After all, a mentor is someone who guides advice and supports along the way…

(A bit more from my writings On Mentoring)
Acknowledge…
Betwixt and between
The you & I,
The us and the we,
Is a ocean of multiverses.
A tapestry of metaverses Springing into existence
Creating connection
Beyond compare
Ingenious innovation
Reaching beyond the known
Forging ahead dimensions
Unfolding technology
With palpable sensations
Creating new possibilities
Exploring potential
Understanding elements
Of space, time and distance
Challenging norms
Quantifying needs & wants
Finding solutions
In a changing world
Simplifying complexities
In the realms of life & living.
Yet as this booming bubbles
Is it a catalyst of changes?
Some sensational and brilliant
Some scary & confounding.
Simply know it’s on its way
And is here to stay
As our world will redefine
Life beyond existence…
Accept…
There is bound to be a boom
Colloidal chaos & confusion
In chasing an unreal world
And finding hope to live on
In the very illusions in making.
Know…
Every thing life appears now
Is a momentary phenomenon.
Of perceptions that deliver
The solutions for life in the soul.
