Preciousness Of Now

What’s different about you, after the storm ?
Are you hardened and toughened by it ?
Or are you more humane, compassionate and gentler as a human after the storm ?

It all depends on you
And how you choose to perceive it.

Perhaps the storm teaches you to steel the self

And create a self preservation shield from such experiences.

On the other hand it could make you more alive to life and the preciousness of now.

As you choose to live and love the life you have left than simply exist in the moments. ✨️

#Life Life Lovingly ❤️

This post actually was inspired by a comment from my dear friend on WordPress over the years and most of all, a truly empowered and brilliant author Maggie Watson.

Her comment made me stop and think of how much even a mention of the word,’ Storm’ can conjure up. And how much those who have survived it may be feeling … each of these bravehearts may have a different tale to tell.

Yet the truth is their heart beats to the preciousness of this now.

Trust that

Sometimes when you are lost

Know time is working its ways

Between these moments

Too sensitive to a fault

Or too numb to be hurt.

When life is a like a storm

And you feel lost in a maze

You still find your way out

To the now, as you read this,

Trust time to deliver ways

Trust that…

A learning mind

A true learners mind never ages

For they have the curiosity of a child

A blank slate where learning can be added

An earnestness in exploration

A trustful disposition

An open mind that allows expansion…

And most of all a readiness to learn

To imbibe knowledge and update the self.

When the mind is ready

The understanding happens

Literally magic

Birthing a new world

Giving shape to imagination

Seeding trees of possibilities

Bearing fruits in the passion

Creating energy in the synergy

Making the words come alive

Writing is literally magic…

Take time

Take time to see beyond

To care and be considerate,

To be kind and compassionate,

To wonder and stay curious.

Take time to learn and explore,

To read and discover another,

To revere the precious now,

To stay grateful for every moment.

For life moves forward

As clocks tick relentlessly,

With no respite…

So choose to reclaim time.

Take time for, and with, the self.

To live lovingly than just exist.

Dawn paints the day

An interesting dawn

I woke up earlier than dawn today.

And positioned myself in my favorite space

To watch the glorious dawn

Before I could realise

A bright orange ball

Just popped up over the horizon…

It was as if the sun was in a hurry

To awaken the world & light the day.

As I just began to ease into the brilliance …

I saw the corner of the sun

Disappearing into the blanket of clouds

Looming large, to dull the senses once more…

The light is hidden now

From plain sight.

Do know the sun is up

There may be a lull in the now

But darkness is a passing cloud

Think of it, as moments to pause

In patience for light is on the other side

Awaiting its turn to light up your day.

And yes, before I could pen these words here…

The light of dawn paints the day.

Heart speaks…

Creative connects

As a dance instructor I remember a time more than a decade ago, I built a community of dance lovers who loved the connecting over a few moves every weekend. The tribe gew organically… as for all these lovers of dance, including me, the art of movements and sharing the creative passion… became a way of life.

I often sensed how much the times spent dancing together was a transformative experience. I also witnessed how many of them found friendships and supported each other through thick and thin.

Though I moved on to another city and began exploring and discovering many more interests in time, the times we all manage to connect again, even now always brings a joyful smile from the heart ❤️

Twilight

Twilight expresses the moment of change
In the most gentle of ways.
Change that allows
Change that accepts
Change that acknowledges…
that transition takes time.
It also holds moments of awe and wonder.

Yet change is rarely felt this way…
For change can be the difference
Between the dark and light
Of the night and day.

Humans are hardwired
To fear change in doubt and uncertainty
But change is the only constant.

However… humans are also wired in hope
To trust transitions of change is hopefulness
And hope is here to stay.

Who lifts you up?

Over the years

Living life teaches much.

Every person in your life

has an unique role to play.

Sometimes they are necessary for you

at times, you are necessary for them.

Life happens along the way,

leaving lessons fine.

Your emotional equation matters more than you think.

Choose to spend time with those who lift you up.

Those who bring cheer and smile to your face.

Choose your circle, its your right.

Choose wisely and you can be where you want to be…

You have one life.

Choose well…

Space for wisdom

Letting go of one’s space

Is not easy

For it is akin to relinquishment.

Knowing how time and space

And all the other elements

Are never the same again.

Yet these experiences

manifest themselves

In the journey of life

Perhaps one or many times

For in that kind of letting go,

The ego of knowing

And assuming dissolves

Yielding space for wisdom.

Like learning is also unlearning…

Wisdom is wise in its ways.

It prefers space

And room to evolve

For it knows only too well

What is, is not all…

Change is the only constant.

Evolving through it all

Wisdom finds its space to be.

Savvy

P.S.:

These verses found their way to flow, on a particularly quiet dawn in moments of contemplation.

Sensing how letting go is not easy in our clinging to the past, be it the wins
or misses and how wisdom needs space to evolve.

And most of all as a reminder that instead of holding on to the weight of the past, if we only could allow ourselves to be in the lightness of this now…

What is that one thought or habit you’ve had to “unlearn” recently to make room for something new?

I’d love to read your thoughts below.

Bridge on the river of time

On Awareness

Between what was understood and what we understand, and what we are yet to understand, is the bridge of awareness in time.

Our shifting perspectives are simply signs of changes as we continue to flow in the river of time.

River of time

How far have we come
From the many versions of ourselves
In this river of time
Where like water, that flows onwards
Time can never be visited backwards…
Only in memories
Held within the hearts & minds
Reminding us of the paths traveled in time.

Life continues to evolve in every now.

As life flows on …

Colouring itself

Along the way.

I share this above digital artwork here from back in time…when AI prompting and image creation was very nascent.
