Reflections on Strength

Every morning in my  moments of gratitude, I reflect on the things that I could have some times taken for granted. It has become a consistent habit for many years now…

In these contemplations there is often much that emerges, sometimes what’s apparent is not what is, and sometimes  what is, is not all…

Today it was all about  strength, not the kind that makes you go on, to push further but actually the kind  that is gentle and quiet, I am talking of that which is often invisible.

What came up was …

That strength doesn’t have to proclaim
That strength is often that which is hidden in you
That surfaces in the storms
That strength too needs rest to recover and its ok
That strength is seen in the so called small ordinary moments of life in subtle ways
That strength needs no nudging but nurturing in gratitude, for it appears whenever in need as a force of nature.
That every one of your strengths and my strengths are valuable in our lives to make it whole and complete.

Gratitude to all spheres of  strength in need for its a strength in deed.

Walking with the wind

Walking with the wind

With a heart full of peace

Flowing in the strength of the soul 

Evolving in the spirit of love.

Let love be your guide

A companion that nurtures

Through the thick & thin

Let love nourish

Your spirit & soul

Anew for every season.

Audacity of Hope

Hope is audacious
It is the nature of hope.
To dream of wins again
No matter the failures.

To see the light of dawn
No matter the darkness of night
Hope is here to stay.

Between the lashes

Between the lashes

There is the flame

Of the spirit burning bright

There is a window of the soul

Seeing in the envisioning 

Of the betwixt & beyond

Both inside & outside

And making sense of it all.

The lashes are but a curtain

To open up to the wonders of the world…

For between the  blink of the lashes

Lies the magic of sight.

On Leadership

Simple is the way

To excellence in leadership

To lead without jargon

And cliched buzzwords

To lead is to practice consistency

In actions that evokes trust

To lead is not about being perfect 

But being human & accountable

To lead is to own the misses

And strive to turn it around

And better the self every day

To lead is to value commitment

And raise the bar of excellence

Growing personally  & professionally.

All in good time

Layer upon layer

Our spheres connect

Communing in nurture

Nuggets of thoughts

Embodying the soul.

Emerging anew each time.

Imprints of life

Etched on our senses

Emotions traversing 

Feelings yet to fathom

Wisdom in the changes

Transforming us from within

All in good time.

Lightness of being

Draw open the curtains of your heart

Open yourself to sense the light that you are

Let go of the unnecessary density that’s clouding you

Shine in the freshness of spirit

Choose to forgive yourself first for follies

Then choose to forgive the foibles in others

To live in the lightness of being…

See each other in good light 

And every time you choose to do so

Know all is for the better.

Let’s just be

Lovely lines that resonate with me deeply…

We must become bigger than we have been: more courageous, greater in spirit, larger in outlook. We must become members of a new race, overcoming petty prejudice, owing our ultimate allegiance not to nations but to our fellow men within the human community.
Haile Selassie

A few contemplations on the same lines…

Lets envision

Beyond borders

Marked on maps

Of human existence

To know we are far more

Than our notions & judgement

We are lifes assertions

In hope & faith

Of the expansive infinite

Thats inclusive of one & all

That every life on earth

Has a purpose & reason to be

Lets acknowledge

This truth of being humane

Than just human.

And beyond all that we must

Do and say in life & living

Let’s just be …

A layered pathway

The road of learning

Is a layered pathway

Not traversed in a day

But a journey of exploration

Adding to the layers

Of knowledge in the seeking

Of wonder in the discovering

Unfolding multiple perspectives

Including possibilities in the flow

Unearthing more in the sharing

Learning is layers of experiences

Textured with every application

Toned with the river of time.

Every cup has a purpose.

In between moments of a frantic day 

Or the restlessness of boredom

Its nice to settle in with a cup of your favourite  beverage.

If not for anything else

Just to pause and gather yourself

It creates a space to ponder

And reflect in wonder

And  in those moments 

Its never dull and senseless

At times it even sparks an idea

Almost out of nowhere

In the association of thoughts

In the camaraderie shared

Every sip seems to soothe

And yet inspire some more

Now think of life too this way

Life is never meant to be rushed

Life is not life if it feels unloved

Take time to live it.

The way is yours to sense & create

The ingredients  of a good life

Is the concoction of your choices.

What you make with it

Is what you are left with

Keep it inspirational.
