When words propose in a flow
That is persuading and all pervading
No matter the rhyme or form
It becomes poetry
Creating a zen like feeling
That makes you want to be
In that state of awareness
Inspite of knowing
Everything moves on…
Have you ever been enticed by the eloquence of words?
Personally I have many favorites
But these profound words by Gibran deeply impacted me…
Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
Infact all the lines that follow are equally poignant as well as profound.
So much wisdom in those words for life and living.
Which is your favorite piece of poetry?
Do your remember those verses vividly ?
Do share. Would love to read!

If milk gets bad, it becomes yoghurt. Yoghurt is more valuable than milk. If it gets even worse, it turns to cheese. Cheese is more valuable than both yoghurt and milk.
And if grape juice turns sour, it transforms into wine, which is even more expensive than grape juice.
You are not bad because you made mistakes. Mistakes are the experiences that make you more valuable as a person.
Christopher Columbus made a navigational error that made him discover America.
Alexander Fleming’s mistake led him to invent Penicillin.
Don’t let your mistakes get you down. It is not practice that makes perfect. It is mistakes we learn from that makes perfect!
Loved this forward I received this morning, just had to share… So motivational. Our attitude turns circumstances around…
Stay hopeful and turn the misses around…
Let go three things to have a life well lived
Let go pressure to prove it to yourself..
Know it wreaks havoc. Trust yourself to deliver your very best.
Let go expectations that others have on you
Know you can never satisfy everyone. And demands will never end
Let go guilt trips into the past. A river never flows back It is meant to course through. Take the learning and move on.
Reminiscing and brooding, of what was or what could be or what any one did or said changes nothing.
Learn to treat yourself kindly
You have one life. Live it well
You owe it to no one but you.
All is never lost
Until you stop
Seeing the world
With eyes of faith
For faith is in you
To build and sustain
For a lifetime
So trust yourself
Witness the miracle
And keep the faith
All is well

It’s balmy weather
It’s early morning
The sun is moving
In and out of the trees
Traveling with me
As I am walking…
The chirping birds
Awakening the world
With hope fulness
The wind is resting
Perhaps still to awaken
The clouds are clearing
Heralding the light
In the mighty tree
A few yards from me
I see a beautiful vision… Cont’d
What is it that I see?
Would you like to continue from here…?

Story : A social media forward.
Three trees in a forest were talking about their dreams.
First tree said, I want to become a beautiful chest & lots of precious treasures should be stored in me.
Second tree said, i want to become a magnificent ship to carry great kings & queens safely across the ocean, even in storms.
Third one told
I want to become the tallest tree in this forest. My height should reach the sky that I should think I am near God.
After some time people came to the forest to cut the trees.
They came near the first tree and said this seems like a strong tree. We will sell this to a carpenter who will make boxes. The tree became happy that its wish is getting fulfilled.
Second tree they decided that it would be suitable to build a ship. The tree was happy that it would finally become a ship.
They saw the third tree and didn’t think of any great use . So it was made to logs n stored.
The carpenter made a box out of the first tree to store hay in a shed.
Second one was made into a small fishing boat.
The third tree was lying as log n stored.
Thus all their dreams were shattered.
Time went by. The trees had forgotten their dreams.
One day a man n woman came to the shed. The lady delivered a baby.They put the baby on the hay in the box made of the first tree.. Immediately the tree realised that it is carrying the greatest treasure on earth.
Few years wentby. Some people were voyaging on the small boat made from the second tree. A big storm started n the tree was worried that it could not save the people it was carrying. At that time one man in the boat said to the sea, be calm. The sea became calm. The tree realised that it is carrying the king of all kings.
After some days a man was carrying the logs from the third tree & walked the street. The people on the way were ridiculing him . They reached a small hill top & the man was nailed on the log & made it stand . After three days the tree realised it was very near God as the man was Jesus Christ.
The dreams of the trees were fulfilled, but not in the way they wanted .
Similarly all our dreams will be fulfilled. May be not in the way or time we planned. But it will happen.
Dream big. Dream good.
Hope is what takes life forward.
Translated from a tamil forward by Anjana
According to an old Native American legend, one day there was a big fire in the forest. All the animals fled in terror in all directions, because it was a very violent fire. Suddenly, the jaguar saw a hummingbird pass over his head, but in the opposite direction. The hummingbird flew towards the fire!
Whatever happened, he wouldn’t stop. Moments later, the jaguar saw him pass again, this time in the same direction as the jaguar was walking. He could observe this coming and going, until he decided to ask the bird about it, because it seemed very bizarre behavior.
“What are you doing, hummingbird?” he asked.
“I am going to the lake,” he answered, “I drink water with my beak and throw it on the fire to extinguish it.” The jaguar laughed. ‘Are you crazy? Do you really think that you can put out that big fire on your own with your very small beak?’
‘No,’ said the hummingbird, ‘I know I can’t. But the forest is my home. It feeds me, it shelters me and my family. I am very grateful for that. And I help the forest grow by pollinating its flowers. I am part of her and the forest is part of me. I know I can’t put out the fire, but I must do my part.’
At that moment, the forest spirits, who listened to the hummingbird, were moved by the bird and its devotion to the forest, miraculously they sent a torrential downpour, which put an end to the great fire.
The Native American grandmothers would occasionally tell this story to their grandchildren, then conclude with, “Do you want to attract miracles into your life? Do your part.”
“You have no responsibility to save the world or find the solutions to all problems—but to attend to your particular personal corner of the universe. As each person does that, the world saves itself.’”
If someone asks your help remember this story.
A lovely read I simply had to share. I am doing my bit…
Every bit matters!
In difficult moments
Think of life
As ocean waves
Waltzing with the tides
Highs and lows
Are both part of the flow
Think of yourself
Realize you are
Not just in the flow
You are the flow!.

I was drawn to watch this beautiful share this morning.
It is a capture of an every day phenomenon of Water drops merging into a water body.
So much beauty in the ordinary
The profound in the simple.
If we only took time
To notice and discover
We will know
How little we see
Of this dance of nature.
Savvy
And watching it in slow motion video….
Pure Fascination.
Every day is new.
A day to celebrate.
Unlike many,
We are alive to see the sun, hale n healthy.
What more reason is needed to celebrate.
Let the bitterness of the past
Dissolve in the darkness of the night.
Like a new dawn,
new beginnings,
new hopes, new effort to make it
a day with positivities and possibilities.
Step forward,
With grit and gratitude.
Each moment is special .
Miracles can happen in any moment.
Be aware when it happens.
Anjana
Count your blessings!
In continuation to my earlier post on trust I share a few verses that flowed along…
Trust is the lifeline
Between people
That keeps hope alive
In faith and belief
That things will come through
In trust life resurrects
And success sustains
In feeling fulfilled.
A lack of trust
Erodes relationships
Personal or professional
For when trust is broken
Efforts become meaningless
For sense of purpose is lost
Without trust
Every thing crumbles…
Until trust is gained
Nothing matters.

Any technological l advancement calls for updating of skills and most of all adaptability.
Adaptability of any new technology calls for embracing change and developments in both actions & attitude…
For adaptability calls for new
learnings with the curiousity of an optimist.
A willingness to uncover the new.
to acknowledge with enthusiasm
In exploration and discovery
Of the potential possibilities.
And the acceptance of errors & misses inspite of the best efforts
& most of all a relentless
development of resilience
to bounce back on the path.
Do share your thoughts and insights on Adaptability.
