Keep the flame burning bright
Rise up to the moment at hand
Have hope feed the faith
For the day is not done.

Seeing light
Your yesterday may have seemed very tough
Your entire body may have taken a toll
Your head and heart may have felt heavy
Your eyes may have welled up in tears
Your emotions choking you
Your breathing may have been constricted
Your muscles may have felt tight. Your steps laboured and dragging
Perhaps a sense of resignment may have reigned all through the day…
Yes it may have been more than you could handle
But handle you did
For you are alive and kicking.
Today your heart is lighter
And you are breathing easy
With a song on your lips
And a dance in your steps
Your body willing
And in enthusiastic spirit Looking forward to another day
To put in your very best
And make it another great day!
The question is then, what is happening in you, one moment to another
And what are you doing to alter the effects of the moment.
And what actually alters everything.
Simply put, your own thoughts
And the power of your choice
Choosing one thought over the other.
Trust life to show many colours every day but know you have the choice in how you choose see and perceive it.
Every day can be good or bad day…
But it’s in the way you chose see it… That changes the day!

Life strings
Who runs your life
Is your life flowing the way you intend
Or is there a possibility
That the strings of your life
Is in anothers hand?
Question your self
In whose hands are your life strings?
As a child you may have your parents
That hold the strings for your self protection
As a teenager you may have questions on the strings itself
And then as a young adult many other strings may have come into existence
Some for a season, a reason or a lifetime
Then growing some more
These strings may have felt like a pull and push from all directions
Getting ahead a few more years
Some you may sense getting weaker
And some may have got stronger
Growing older and perhaps wiser
Of things as they were
And as they are…
A life lived
To fulfil a purpose
Is it yours at all
Or is it another’s dream
After all
In your head and heart
You may have the truth
Of a life lived
A stringed existence.
From innocence
To rebellion
From learning
To curiousity
From understanding
To accepting
And in the sharings.
And knowingly or unknowingly
In awareness or without
We come alive and die
Infinite tines
In the many moments
In our lives…
It’s a stringed existence after all.

A photo inspired poetry
9 :28 4rth of July India
While I wrote this piece yesterday seeing the photo inspiration , I am also aware that I had this thought on the truth of freedom many times.
What do you think on freedom within a stringed existence?
Are you in the drivers seat of your life
And if so what are the things you have compromised or have contended with to drive on…
Truth is in the meaning and purpose of the stringed connection.

Tune in
As you dance
Tapping your toes
To your own heartbeats
Life senses your rhythm
And waltzes along with you,
The joy of life
Manifests itself
Tuning into the melody of the harmony.
Creating music that beats in the synchrony.

Faith Love Truth
Master your mind they say
Before it masters you
Acknowledge the truths of life
For mind is full of thoughts
Creating countless thoughts
Know the value of mindfulness
Being mindful is about self awareness
To master the mind
Master your thoughts
Become aware of this now.
Whatever is this moment
Sense it and you breathe in it
Feel it and be alive in it
For the truth is in every moment
What you decide to do in this now
Has power to change and rearrange
Your state of being.
Life is precious
Have faith and trust
Stay hopeful in every breath.
For the truth is you can.
After all the mind works
On what you feed it.

Embrace your U- ness
In your uniqueness lies the strength
Of Authenticity
Of Identity
Of Potential
Being you and being true to yourself is the simplest path towards your purpose.
And yet often being you at times can be challenging.
For life can demand much from you and you need to go beyond and bend backwards and forwards to surf through life’s unexpected turns.
But by being true to yourself you are at least sure to have your heart and head in check and balance, where your inner conscience meets your consciousness.
Embrace and embody your U-ness

Pathways to light
Sabhar The way of patience in waiting
Shukar The way of thankfulness in gratitude
There is great wisdom in these two ways to live life lovingly.
Both are pathways in the ebb and flow of life.
To see from nothingness
Is to see possibilities ahead.
To keep hope alive in your heart. Cultivate faith in patience and trust.
To sense gratitude even when you have everything, Is to know that there is much more than what is visible. You are a tiny speck of the magnificent whole. And no life is less or more important. And that every life plays a significant part.
In awareness there is heartfelt thankfulness in contentment for everything you already have.
As you cultivate these habits every day becomes incrementally better.
Or perhaps you begin to understand gradually, the power of managing change rests within you.
Stay patient
Trust yourself.
In thankfulness
See the light
You actually are.

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.

Compassionate connections
The path of compassion knows not separateness
Flowing in love of life in lightness
In the sparks of surging intuition
To be tender & move with compassion
Beyond mankind to all living being.
In the depths of compassion is an understanding
Of another soul in recognition
And sensing the joy and sorrows in reflections.
So join in to experience in embrace of compassion
Beyond intellect and reason and other egoistic delusions
Join the circle of conscious compassion.
Unite with single minded purpose of communion.
Share without fear or favour
All that you divinely revere
As every journey is a reunion
Of the spirit to another in Godliness .
The energy from such an authentic action
Creates oneness and peace
In and around us.
And a sense of belonging
To this vast wide world
Comes in the knowing
Of our owing to this
world and the beings around us.
We are not alone ever …
Works like a prayer…
For life to have meaning.

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…

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!

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.
Savvy
All at the right time.
There is a time and reason for every season
For if all the seasons manifested together
There would be calamity.
There is always a reason to things
To questions and answers
If every lifes purpose asserted itself in this now.
There would be no tommorow…
Life is meant to go on
To live and learn
To explore and discover
To hope and await
To look forward to…
So acknowledge the learnings that happen
In a lifetime…
All at the right time.
