Inclusive Expansiveness

The difference between just looking and seeing is so much.

In the depth and dimensions

In our flow of thoughts.

For in these expansions our acceptability and flexibility changes the seemingly complex situations to simple solutions.

Course correction

When life feels too confusing

When efforts seem meaningless

When all feels overwhelming

Simply trust and know you are closer

To the path of clarity.

Sharing a few perspectives

On course correction.

And what we as humans can do…

Shifting from pain to purpose

Seeing experiences as learning

Knowing troubles are teaching

Imbibing these lessons as wisdom.

To live life even more lovingly

Sensing the sparking of joy

That ordinary moments hold.

Listen

Claude clouds…

Claude clouds the brain

Until humans are devoid

Of humanity

The moot point of creativity

Will be destroyed forever

For as we develop Ai

Ai is destructing us.

The social fabric

Is shredded to bits 

In the facades of validation

Of  likes and emojis.

The value of human touch

Is replaced with doomscrolling…

Forgotten in this virtual world

Even money is no more tangible.

Some times what we think is  development

Can possibly lead to AI   infestation

Into our lives whether we agree or not

Our privacy is out of the window

Our every move is public

The price of advancement.

Clouded by Claude…

Savvy

P.S:

That Ai  is dumbing us down is known but  more than that price we pay is losing our voice and expression.

Whatever the Ai models the fact is we are slowly more and more willing to let it operate us…to the point that there is no uniqueness  left.

What do you think?

Calm in the flow

On Gravitating With Grace

Listen

If something seems smooth in its flow
There is also chaos somewhere


If something feels certain and precise
There are also probabilities across the spectrum
Of ambiguity.


If time feels flexible enough to warp and bend at will
There is also uniformity of timing in the rigidity like the ticking clock.

Yet, in the weight and the gravity of situations
Floats the other side, the whimsical truths…
Seemingly clashing
With the greatest of minds
And their proposed theories of science.


Balancing both ends
Is the fascia  of existence that strings it all…
Question remains not
If gravity is pulling or pushing.
But that it is gravitating with grace
On its own,
Causing the calm in the flow…

Painted petal

Painted petal

Gift of nature

Colour of changes

Mapped in its veins.

A single leaf strewn across by the winds of changes, carries profound truths of living life…🙏

Celebrate you

The day you realize
Your potential
You begin to explore possibilities
And you even make
The impossible possible.

Care to ask yourself…
Are you safeguarding your boundaries
Or being too accepting
That you tolerate more than you truly should.
What are you hoping for?
Is it approval and validation
Are you waiting for another
To take the step?
Perhaps you need to celebrate You.
Who you are! As you are…

Life has just begun

Crossed the midstream

The shore is a swim away

The body takes its toll

Yet the spirit is willing

To ride through 

And grace the shore.

On touching ground

The horizon beckons

Over the hills and dales

In the sands of time.

Trust your life

To unfold the way…

When you feel you are done 

Life has just begun.

Savvy

P.S

I share my prompted artwork with Ai, here again, as I feel it somehow comes together and somehow makes perfect  sense with the verses.

Space…

Space.

Space allows.

Space that expands

Space that acknowledges you.

Space that lets you be.

Space that opens up for you

Space that speaks to you in you.

Space that listens as it speaks

Space that evolves you

Space for growth and learning

Space that liberates

Space frees

Space.

I wrote this piece in a flow…

In a space of calm.

I enjoyed  writing it  as I began  playing with space in and around the poem  unknowingly at first but then intentionally after the sixth line. As I patterned the flow… I began channeling my thoughts …in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 , 6, 5, 4, 3,2,1 words.

I hope you enjoy reading it.

In retrospect…

Chase not, the shiniest

For it often lose their sheen

Choose consistency over hype

It makes a mark in time.

What shines today

May become dull tommorow

What perseveres every day

May turn reliable in the long run .

Chase not, the loudest proclaims

It often ends up as a whimper

Choose the steadiness of approach

That often becomes substantial.

Chase not, the charmer

They often turn out fake.

To smile without heartbreak

Choose the one with humor…

And  keep humor alive in your heart…

Beauty of impermenance

Today,  I came across a beautiful  Japanese word called ‘Komorebi’ that depicts…the beauty  of light filtering in through the leaves. And I see this picture, that I had saved, somehow seems to fit right in…

Beauty of impermenance

Every ray of light
In these leaves …
Can never be replicated
To exact moments.

Yet there is stillness
In its fleeting moment
In simple appreciation,

And heartfelt acknowledging

Of the beauty of impermenance.

Wind on sand

Wind on the sand

Gathering gently

Singing sweetly…

Whistling winds…

Humming & howling

Desert dunes

Deep drones

Shifting sands

Slumping steep

Silver on silver

Gold on gold.
