Grateful

I AM GRATEFUL

For this moment of peace

In this now I am present

To know it’s preciousness.

And grateful in soulful awareness

That the Universe in and around

Is taking care of everything else 🙏

When the odds stack high, .
When our visions are not far enough,
When the road ahead seems blocked,
When we are at our wits’ end
When we are at cross with destiny
It shakes hand with us.
As it has planned ahead
A reciprocal arrangement
That opens a new path,
A new vision appears.
Nothing ends,
A new beginning starts.
Hope is here to stay.

A poem by my mother Anjana

On determination

To the truly determined

Opportunity unfolds

In the sustained effort.

To learn anything new

Needs dedicated determination

To understand beyond exploring.

In the will and perseverance

Arrives the point of knowing

And learning continues…

For the truly determined

Nothing can stop the learning.

One positive thought.

It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.
Robert H. Schuller

One positive thought
The power of positive
Adds life to the years
Firms up the faith
Heals with hope
Brings trust in time
Makes us believe again.
So much to live for
Than simply languish.
Such is the power of positive thinking…

Steer your life for the better
Think a positive thought

Well here is mine
I think today is a beautiful day

Care to share a positive thought
in this now?

Thoughts & us

We are what our thoughts are.

God came.

Ask me whatever you want.
Ten people asked their desires

First one
Countless money & a big business to run

2nd one

The most powerful position in the world

3rd one
I need fame & fortune like a topmost world famous actor

4th
I have to become the most beautiful person that the whole world becomes mad after me

Like this each of the nine people asked their desires which God gave them immediately.

The tenth person asked
I want the most contented , peaceful & blissful stage which a man can achieve.

The rest of the 9 looked at him laughing.

Peace of mind, contented heart.

For that only we asked whatever we wanted . When we get whatever we wanted peace & contentment will follow.

God looked at them and said I’ve given whatever you all wanted. Now you all can go.

The He turned towards the tenth person and said,
‘you wait here. I need to talk to you. I’ll come after some time. ‘ He left.

Now the rest of the 9 hesitated & stayed back so anxious to know what God is going to give him.

In spite of getting whatever they wanted they became jealous over the man who has not got anything till then.

As time passed, their anxiety grew & they forgot to enjoy what they have got. There went their peace & happiness.

The tenth man waited patiently. He became so peaceful & content that God is coming to talk with him.

Who are we.
The tenth person or
the rest .
Decide.

Our thoughts decide who we are.

Translation from a Tamil social media share by my mother Anjana.

Have shared my artwork here for I felt it was apt for the story above, in depicting the 10th man who is at bliss and peace in the merging of thoughts in divine consciousness.

Spirit Ablaze…

Sky above, earth below, and fire within,
As I stand here,
Under the canopy of twinkling stars in the sky,
Sensing the nourishing earth under my feet,
And the fire ablaze, in the spirit of my soul.

The fire within, I nurture ,
As passion that fuels, my soul
A purpose that ignites, and a will to succeed,
A heart that beats, a dream to be freed.

Watching the sky above, clouds floating by,
Like a bird soaring I choose to fly,
And I wonder of infinite possibilities,
Until the setting sun, draws the moon at night.

I feel the fertile ground
Sense the abundance of nature.
A garden of life.
In every breathing life, is a universe within,
Bountiful beauty, to inspire dreams.

Sky above, earth below and fire within,
A journey of life, with a prayer in hope
To meet the mornings, awaiting the purpose of life.
With the spirit ablaze in my beating heart.

Meet life.

Meet life in the eye
See the light it shows

Meet life in this now
Understand there is always a reason why

And then trust enough
To meet it with enthusiasm to live
So you can meet the miracles in this now.

Know you

All That You Seek Around You Already Have Within You

All the knowing
That you may need
You have enough
Seek your truth
Around and within
You are enough
Already all is within you
Have trust hope and faith
Within you all is awaiting
You to know, You.

Be to Become

Be all that you can

To become all that you want

Becoming what you want to be

Is a journey in time

Of highs and lows

To become is to envision

To intend consistently

The very same vision day in and out

To persevere time and time again

Without losing sight of your intent

To be passionate about what you are

To have patience in waiting

As you inch closer and closer

To become what you want to be.

And trust, what you are meant to be

Will always find a way!

A leap of faith

A leap of faith
Is what makes life a life.
Take the chances
That you choose to let go.
Be intentional
So that life doesn’t slip away
Take the chance
May be they turn out
The best decision of your life.

They say opportunity does not knock twice.. So take a leap of faith.

So when you hear the calling of your heart & soul…

Trust you can and you can!

All of you

Play like a child can and be ready for wonder

Work like you are truly invested in it

Dance to embody the truth of you

Love with all of your heart and soul

Live like there is no tommorow

All it takes is all of you!

Shake it off & Step up

Sharing an interesting read that came my way today… Life is to thrive

One day a farmer’s donkey fell into a well. The animal cried loudly for hours, while the farmer tried to find something to do to get him out.

Finally, the farmer decided that the donkey was old and the well was already dry and needed to be covered anyway; that it really wasn’t worth pulling the donkey out of the well..

He invited all his neighbors to come help him. They each grabbed a shovel and began to throw dirt into the well.

The donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly loud. Then, to everyone’s surprise, he quieted down after a few shovelfuls of dirt.

The farmer finally looked down into the well and was amazed at what he saw… with each shovelful of dirt, the donkey was doing something incredible: It was shaking off the dirt and stepping on top of the dirt.

Very soon everyone saw surprised how the donkey reached the mouth of the well, went over the edge and trotted out…

Life is going to throw dirt at you, all kinds of dirt… the trick to getting out of the hole is to shake it off and use it to step up. Each of our problems is a step up. We can get out of the deepest holes if we don’t give up…

Use the land they throw you to get ahead!!!

Remember the 5 rules to be happy:

Free your heart from hate.
Free your Mind of distractions.
Simplify your life.
Give more and expect less.
Love more and… shake the dirt, because in this life you have to be a solution, not the problem.
