Cornucopia
Every moment is a cornucopia of sensing
Fleeting thoughts in the making
Feelings and emotions reveal themselves.
Between action and inaction
And in the stillness in between
Like the ebb and flow on the tides
While at times amplifying & complicating situations
By tilting the tuning of the body and mind.
Sometimes overpowering almost self defeating
Sometimes compelling to release the stress withholding
To ease up the being & free up some space
Between thought and action.
Think of your emotions
As a bridge in between
To pause and reflect a while
And then to respond.
Respect your self and own your emotions.
For all your emotions make you, you.
Feel good that you can express
In so many shades and tones.
Emotions are interlinked
In every moment of life and living
All the while authenticating and revealing
The person you truly are.

Be the catalyst of change
Just because you can worry
Doesn’t mean you have to
For there is always a reason to fret
But if you change your attitude
Shift your perspective
If you can meet all that comes up
With a smile from the heart
Things just might fall in place
So keep seeing the good in all
And in yourself
Be the catalyst of change…

Quote of the day
Interplay of colours
Find balance in the blending…
Strangely true. Opposites attract.
Have added my painting to depict this quote I came across today..
The cynic finds love with the idealist. The rebel with the conformist. The social butterfly with the bookworm. They help each other balance their lives. Joyce Brothers
Grateful
Hiroyuki Sanada once said, “There are those who want a swimming pool in the house, while those who have one barely use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a deep sense of loss, while others who hold them close often complain about them. Those who do not have a partner yearn for him, but those who have, sometimes do not value him. The hungry would give anything for a plate of food, while the well-fed complains about the taste. The one who doesn’t have a car dreams, while the one who has one is always looking for a better one. The key is to be grateful, look carefully at what we have and understand that somewhere, someone would give everything for what you already have and don’t appreciate.”
Heal in Synchrony
Can I hold my own hand
And close my eyes for a while
And listen to my beating heart
As I still myself and pause.
There is so much to listen in
Body spirit and mind speaks
As it all begins to make sense.
Heart emotes the feelings
Brain thinks the words out
Hopefully logical
Emotionally rational
All it wants is a listening ear
To understand empathicaly
Sensing the harmony
To heal the self
Aligning energy in synchrony.
An evening contemplation.

Essence of our soul
Who am I
What is my digital presence signifying to you?
Am sure the thought will cross everyone of our minds.
While as a writer there is much that is said by me , there is still parts of me none may know….
Each of our digital presence speaks much about us in the age of technology we are leaving realms if data insights in every interaction post and comment. Through it all we are all responsible for the personna we share .
But if algorithms have their way they may predict and analyze much more than we can handle and that would a be a challenge to our identities.
What are your thoughts on this ?

6 Tips to Overcome Analysis Paralysis
On Analysis Paralysis
Some of the common Symptoms: Overthinking ,lack of focus, Stress ,Frustration, Racing thoughts .Indecisiveness in high pressure situations, Cognitive confusion. Tiredness Sleeplessness etc.
If you are feeling caught
In a swirl of thoughts & emotions
As if you are being engulfed
In a whirlwind of overthinking…
Perhaps about family & relationships
Or your career or finances etc
Where you feel stuck in a loop
Unable to take a decision
Or move forward with a solution.
It could be Analysis Paralysis.
While anyone of us may have experienced it, people with inflexible and fixed mindset often find themselves in this dilemma.
On the other hand people who are sensitive and empathy also find themselves unable to take a decision to move forward if it is going to upset another .
In fact Analysis Paralysis can create blockages for intuitive people and hence they need to understand it to address it.
If you are experiencing it now here are few solutions to manage it.
- Acknowledge with Self Awareness by scanning your entire body to sense what, when and where,and how often you are feeling this way.
- Address it by allowing yourself to be more flexible and open to new perspectives without fear.
- Stop trying to please one and all. Trust in your capabilities and know you are enough.
- Conquering your fear of failure by taking a small step towards that which seems impossible. Keep the faith in yourself and you can always pivot without unwanted pressure.
- Inculcating a practice of mindfulness regularly helps increase focus by creating present moment awareness.
- Choosing to slow down and avoid the pressures of multitasking help ease the cognitive challenges.
On Commitment
An interesting quote on relationships I read this morning…
The relationship between commitment and doubt is by no means an antagonistic one. Commitment is healthiest when it’s not without doubt but in spite of doubt.
Rollo May
As I reflected on the above words a few thoughts came to me…
On life and relationships
Is there an interplay of doubt and commitment?
Is there commitment when in doubt?
What happens when doubt creeps in the committed?
Whenever they intersect there are conflicts
Whether at opposition or not
Both are in thoughts
Dashing from one extreme to another
At times contradicting at times rationalising
And returning back to apparent normalcy
When doubt dances in, commitment feels the burn
When commitment is strong, doubt rests on the back burner.
Have always felt there needs to be trust in a relationship as much as compromise else even the strongest of relationships fall apart.
What are your thoughts ? Do share.
