Joy of Happiness

True Joy of Happiness
Manifests in the sharing
For sharing is the springwell
Of joy.

True Joy in the happiness is beyond selfishness
In fact it invokes a share with one another.

Tapping into Creativity

An artist may give a shape to thoughts, its destiny is the result of the bubbles of thoughts in the connected flow.

Creativity is in each of us. We are blessed with much we are yet to understand.

Often we neglect the creative side in each of us and don’t find ourselves expressing it away, but tapping into it can open portals of yet unknown possibilities in each of us. And most of all gives us the courage to explore and embrace the unknown.

On Communication

On Miscommunication

Nobody shares to confuse,
but at times the way of understanding and sharing can be confusing.
People are unique in the way they communicate with one another.

Some have oratory skills and make a profound impact in the way they speak, some are deeply introverted and reserved and say less.


Some have keen listening skills and hear to understand and others understand from visual senses. For them it’s about what they see for themselves than what they hear. So they pay lesser attention to sound but more to what they see.


Yet others are deeply intuitive that they sense the signs. They will be sensing beyond the words and vision.

Our unique senses are our biggest gifts but they can be the very reason for many misunderstandings between people.

In professional environment there is no room for errors and it can prove to be a costly mistake when internal and external communications gets misunderstood.

Hence its important to use the right communication channels. This helps align teams around a shared vision. Avoid departmental silos by helping different teams and departments to connect and work together. And ensure that there are developments towards cross-functional teams.

For the truth is, the way we communicate with one another can leave a lasting impression.

A Great Leader Knows…

Great leaders know…
It’s about listening, observing identifying and then empowering & developing middle managers to be great leaders of tommorow.

It’s about rewarding people for the right reasons.
And understanding what gets people to work together.

And then creating and sustainable atmosphere for them to work well together.

It’s about finding time to understand the context of what is. And being able to not only envision the big picture but also project it with authenticity and powerfully so.

For in the many small moments of the day there appears many random tests for a leader.

Leadership is not about making everyone like each other. But about making them understand that it takes all of them to be a consistent and collaborative team players.

And most of all getting every one knowing why they are there and clarifying in simple words what the organization is trying to do.

There is a beautiful saying that goes…’ It’s not about having a team of stars
But about having a star team’

And great leaders create star teams…

Learnings in the listening


I listened  to my heart
Every day
As it shares from within
And I write them out as words
Sometimes as verses
At times it’s measured
In moderation.
Its a zen moment
For there is clarity
In just a few words shared.

Then there are times
They flow like a river
A torrent in a current
Patterning itself
In its own making
Words come through me
As if it needs to be spoken
Sharing the sensitivity
Of the moments at hand.


I listen simply with rapt attention.
For in the slightest flutter
In every movement in the moments
Or the depth of silence.
There is always something more.

Walk in light

Why walk in shadows of dark
When light  is just around the bend.

Walk in light
If you can’t see the light
Find the light in you.

Trust your inner light to show you the way.
Love the light that you actually are!

Imprints of kindness

On Kindness
Kindle the kindness
It’s the springwell of love
For love is limitless
Kindness generates
Heartfelt abundance
From one to another
Creating magic in action
Be it in words thoughts or deeds.

That best portion of a man’s life, his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.
William Wordsworth

Leave imprints in kindness

Every word you say

Every where you go

Every act you do in kindness

Every tree you plant

Makes a difference

For it is busy saving the world.

Be kind stay kind

It’s possible.

What’s louder than words?

This world…
Needs no pity
That feels sorry
Nor sympathy
That feels pain.
For feeling sorry
Or sensing pain
Will not solve
The issues at hand.

What one life truly needs from another…
Is empathy
To understand and relate with one another.
And compassion
That cares to help heal.

Whenever wherever
the dialogue changes
From I feel sorry,
To I will help you
Because I care…
The world will be a better place.

For action speaks louder than words.

The Gift

The Gift

We have a gift within each of us.

The gift of life!
It’s ours to take care.
We have another gift in and around us.
It’s in which we are.
The gift of this world!
It’s a gift we have for a while with us.
So that we can pass it on, to our children.
Let’s value the gifts we have.
Let’s remember to sense its preciousness.
Let’s never take it for granted.

For without it nothing is.

A blessing in disguise

On Sensitivity

Every life is unique

And each of us on this planet

Have different personality traits

Our heart and mind is wired

In infinitely different ways.

An acknowledgment of the uniqueness to life

Makes us understand how valuable we each can be.

A little sensitivity goes a long way…

Although people cannot be compartmentalised

There are many ways nature and nurture impacts

Some hardened by life in resilience

Some suppress their emotions

Causing imbalances within

Some sensitive to sense the subtler energies

And Some who wear their heart on their sleeves

Expressing emotions and feelings away…

It can be challenging

For they also hurt easily.

For they sense a flood of emotions

They are often extremely receptive

As well as empathic in their sensing.

And often quick to understand

Perhaps they are blessed with subtlety

Of perception & awareness

With a highly developed intuition

For they are sensitive & emotional beings

They are who they are as they are.

Sensitivity can be blessing in disguise

Yet Sensitivity makes us humane

In the way we relate with the world

The planet needs sensitive souls

Who care a little more

Who sense and feel in empathic ways.

Let’s never discount this gift & virtue

In these sensitive souls.

For how we sense and feel

Affects what path and actions we choose to take.

And the world around is but a reflection of who we are

Healing is in letting go

On Letting go

If you are feeling upset

Let time pass

Hurts will heal again

If you are angry

Let there be pauses

Anger will recede in the silence

If you are defeated

Let yourself know

That the world is a circle

The night breaks into a new dawn

With promises of a blessed new day!

So stay patient in perseverance

And know every phase has a reason to be

Learn to forgive and let go

And as all is meant to be well once again.

Writing is often a very cathartic experience.

Sometimes people unknowningly say things that hurt or upset another.

Today was one of those days. I chanced upon one of my old poems on letting go in forgiveness and it made much sense. I was able to move beyond simply by acknowledging the truth in those verses.

I simply had to share…

Treasure of happiness

Try to make at least one person happy every day. If you cannot do a kind deed, speak a kind word. If you cannot speak a kind word, think a kind thought.

Count up, if you can, the treasure of happiness that you would dispense in a week, in a year, in a lifetime!
Lawrence G. Lovasik

Loved the message in the quote…Build a treasure of happiness.
