Beauty in the ordinary

Where time ticks onwards too fast

In a rushing world

With no time to stand and stare

The beauty is in the ordinary… 

An unforgettable vegetarian lunch in China.

In simple sharing, 

Of a space,

Of a meal ,

Of being with one another

Valuing time spent joyfully

With family & friends

That makes the day magical.

When push comes to shove…

So many masters with ideas…

Many motivating words around

On how to ace productivity

On how to get things done

And manage the chaos that reigns

When push comes to shove

Every thing takes a backseat

You simply need to steer

Racing against time for dear life

In the toughest times

Good habits come to rescue

Like discipline and dedication

Helps complete tasks at hand.

How have your habits helped rescue you ?

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

Hear to be heard

Hear to be heard
Value to be valued
Acknowledge.

It makes a world of difference in a ‘ever busy world’ that’s always checking time.
Giving time and energy to understand another with empathy will help shift perspectives for the better.

Embrace Silence

I am not a trained speaker, nor an expert story teller. In fact I am quite the antithesis for while I deeply enjoy conversing with people than speeches… I  have always liked my deeds than talks to show up for me .

And I have sensed the butterflies in my stomach and heard my own beating heart while speaking to a room full of people, many many  times in my life. 

Like they say, life makes you stand on the razors edge, as much as on varied stages to experience what it is to be  vulnerable, only to transform you.

But then I know I have it in me to ace it. After all, the power of my self belief and purpose has always stood out stronger than my vulnerabilities.

Time and time again I have realized how much it is all in our mind. The journey of life through the illusions, our delusions & revelations to the clarity in awareness.

In time I have often sensed that what makes you uncomfortable  has your deliverance. In those moments of vulnerability, there is latent strength to overcome the odds.

What seems like an uncomfortable pause…

Can be the reason why what you say is heard and understood.

For if you truly care to sense

For there is much power in the pause,

In the space between two words  two thoughts , two moments and two people.

It is waiting for awareness

Embrace the silence

Sense the power in the spaces.

Ease in to the pause

Listen more

Trust yourself

You will find yourself.

Colouring Life


Colours of the spirit
Pouring from  the heart
Sensing  the feelings
Evoking the emotions…

If every colour in the sky
Rained down on earth
If every colour of the rainbow
Poured itself from the cup of life
Colouring the planet in vibrance
The world may see the very colours
In the deepest core of the earth.

Nature is abundant in its flow
In the river of time
Trust nature to paint in vividity
Splashing itself on the canvas of the earth
Uncovering the yet undiscovered treasures…

Living well

Spirit of freedom

Is the essence of nature

Yet it is full of balance

And structure in its abandon.

A life of healthy habits

Is going to give you freedom

To be all that you actually are.

When you make time for health

When you nourish yourself

With balanced food

When you begin to sleep  well

When you find time for yourself

You  will be full of energy

You will sense the the joys

Of living life than just existing.

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.”

Wisdom of moderation

Tilting to the extremes

Causes imbalance

In overthinking

Overdoing

Or even overindulging

Creates excess and rots life.

Wisdom of moderation

Is found in balance

Align thoughts align life
