Coherence  Part 2 

Much happens in the sounds

Much happens in the silence

For it is never still

The troughs and crests

The highs and lows

The swing and the sways

Are all but a dance of waves

Of energy in the flow of life

Asserting in the ascent

And subsiding in the descent.

Shaping itself in the changes.

Much like notes of music

Coming together in coherence

And the spaces between notes

Making music to those

Who care to sense.

All parts to the same whole

Finding meaning  in itself.

Finding purpose for itself.

Such is the circle  of life.

Savvy

This is part 2 of my painting  interpretation of Coherence inspired  further from the two interesting comments  by   @Katiemiafredrick and @Simon here

Coherence

A painting by Savvy Raj

When energy aligns

Syncing in synchrony

There is a dance of coherence

Resonance occurs

In these changes

No matter the circumstances

No matter the challenges

Creating connections

Building bridges 

Narrowing gaps 

In understanding

Bettering communication

Everything  comes together

And begins to make sense.

Strengthen your humanity

Keep your heart grateful

Keep your mind thankful

Keep your spirit humble

It will strengthen the foundation

Of many virtues of being human

Like love, trust and faith

Courage and contentment

Health, happiness and joy

Creating a blessed life

This Now

This now is a dance
Whirling in between
The then and the forthcoming
The sun moon and stars
Too make their presence felt
Swirling in their cosmic paths
This you is swaying to life
Listen keen as the sands sing
Hear the whistling winds
They like you have a reason to be
In this now being where they are
Just like you right here in this now.

View from the top

How different is the view

From every angle in sight?

What makes it so stark in contrast

And so varied in interpretation?

How the colours of life change?

How easy it is to believe,

What you see as the truth,

That nothing else could be reality?

What you see from the mountain

Is different from the plain.

The eyes are the same.

But the perception is different.

What’s your energy like today?

I came across these lines this morning…

We either make ourselves miserable ,
or we make ourselves strong.
The amount of work is the same

— Carlos Castaneda —

Questions for the self

What are your thoughts like?

What is the work you do making you feel?

What is the energy  you sense ?

Are you  feeling strengthened by it?

Your answers will reveal much to you.

As the words flow

As writers I am pretty sure many of us can relate to this …

A few thoughts on writing and how it helps me every day.

I write with a sincere heart
Honouring the words that flow
Feeling the truth of my potential
As the waves of thoughts
Light my day, along the way…
As much as my spirit & soul
It’s one of my self care routine
To sense & emote and express
Without fear or favour.
So grateful for the blessings,
It gives.
🙏

On writing every day

I have been writing every day for almost a decade now, it has become a well ingrained habit. I thoroughly enjoy my me time. Most days it’s every morning  time that I pen my thoughts,  but I never force it to a particular time. Someday it’s a joy to write  down whenever  I feel the inspiration.

And Inspiration is everywhere

I simply started on a lark and  what is beautiful is, every day there is always something  that inspires the words . And I hope to continue as  long as the words flow…

How has writing improved your life ?

How do you approach your writing?

Your choices, your way

A painting by Savvy Raj

Every thing that interests you

Every word that you choose to hear & say

Every book you choose to read

Every thing you choose to do

Every place you choose to be

Is an open book of yourself

Your choices come from you

You have it all within

In your choices is a dimension

Of your own truths.

Embedded with in you

Awaiting emergence.

You manifest your own way.

Life changing moment

Speaking about few years ago, getting a major surgery that was absolutely necessary was life  changing. It improved the quality  of my life. I reclaimed my life became even more alive, post it.

Though I chose not to focus on the difficulties,  I do have a lesson learned. 
Lesson :  Address health issues as they come in.Never ignore or delay what is necessary. It only complicates. It has been a blessing  and I always will thank my doctor for this second lease of life I have.
Grateful 🙏

Take care of your self.

What is your one life changing moment?

On Conflict Resolutions

Building bridges of understanding 

Listen first. Give your opponents a chance to talk. Let them finish. Do not resist, defend or debate. This only raises barriers. Try to build bridges of understanding”. Dale Carnegie

Have you managed and resolved conflicts in virtual teams? If so, you will agree on how much communication matters in building bridges of understanding.

On Virtual Conflict Resolutions

Conflicts and its resolution are part of teams dynamics. An empathic approach to that is inclusive, non-judgemental, proactive  and  open to establishing safe discussion spaces creates positive outcomes in virtual scenarios.

In virtual team management  scenario, it is important to define and understand what matters to each person or team to find the path forward. Creating a mutual connection virtually  bridges over misunderstanding, encourages trust and strengthens relationships, leading to positive communication.

Being objective, mindful and  awareof unconscious biases that influence perception helps create a roadmap towards resolutions.

What are your challenges in managing virtual conflicts?

How do you resolve them? Do  share your perspectives.

What is something you love about nature?

The vibrancy of nature
The adaptability of creation
The constancy of change
The arresting colours
Unshackling of spirit
The inter connections
Soulful vibes and sounds
Imparting wisdom profound
And not to forget
The enthralling  views
Are all things I love about nature
What about you?

Waves


In the waves lies the secret of creation. Walter Russell


The waves signify freedom 

Of flow in the movements

In the rise ad fall

In the swing and sway

Waves are all about change

Like no two moments are alike

No two waves are alike

Each shaped in the momentum

Of its own path in the making

Gliding through in grace

Like swivelling sands

And twirling tides…

In the highs and lows

Each creatings it’s own destiny.

Fear not the waves of time 

As it comes so it goes

Leaving lessons in its wake

So much to learn and unlearn.

On leadership.

Poignant truths  to remember for all leaders

You are human and not a machine and so is your team.

You are here to lead, not here to be liked by all. 

You will also make mistakes,  and that is how you learn

You will adapt as you cannot control everything, some things are unavoidable and  sooner you  acknowledge  it the better.

You will be challenged by a few in inexplicable ways , but these experiences will empower you.

Your teams will outgrow you in time, even if you have invested your all in them .

You will learn how to sustain in the letting go , that is the way of evolving with change.

And most of all the higher you climb the lonelier you will feel.

Be prepared to manage  it.
