SPARKS OF LIGHT

There are times we sense, how words are sparks of light.

From life and lifetimes lived

Of learnings from being you

That is actually meant to light hearts

Near and far…

We simply need to trust, for words know and find their way.

Keep sparking & sharing your light ✨️ 🙏

In this now…

In this now I inhale peace
In this now I exhale love
In this now I sense calm
In this now I share a smile.

In this now what I can do
Matters than, then & later
For it sets the course ahead
Aligning past with present.

In this now lives potential
In this now, is the power of choice
In every now that is…
Choose well.

Walk in Light 

Walk in Light

Why walk in shadows of dark

When light is iust 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!

Love & Peace

As you go through daily life.

Just care to remind yourself

That you are being watched over

And cared for…

This simple habit will bring you immense peace.

And you will transmit universal love.

Peace be with you.

Retrouvaille

Meeting an old friend
A kindered spirit
Or a loved one …

The joy of uniting
After being afar 
Speaks of interconnections…
Where time and space
Evaporates without a trace
In the moments together.

Its often said
Absence makes the heart
Grow fonder…
So is it the distance
That makes reunion sweeter?
Gibran wisely said…
Let there be spaces
In your togetherness

So whatever the relationship
With another or with the self ,  the very act of reconnecting  with an old hobby, that you  were once passionate about,  makes it truly memorable.
For what is truly meaningful, is never lost … it’s simply awaiting a return.

Savvy

PS: The word Retourvaille (often spelled Retrouvailles in French) is a beautiful, untranslatable French word that perfectly captures a specific, deeply felt human experience.
Literally translated, it means “rediscovery” or “the finding of something again.”

On Wings Of Grace

As you choose to fly free

As you brave new winds

As you discover new horizons

Always remember who has your back.

The bonds of love are there for a reason…

To be nurtured and cherished by its sheer presence

For to be lovingly supported is a blessing of grace.

Art lives on…

An artist leaves much more
than creativity in the artwork.

There is a voice in every frame,
speaking deeply if you care to listen.

That voice carries the artist’s choices
of color and composition,
of style and strokes,
of moods and feelings
breathed into the birth of art.

The artist speaks through the work.
The energy of the artist is embedded
in words, in lines, in shapes and forms.

When a piece feels complete,
the artist releases it to the world.
And yet, the energy lives on,
transforming itself through time
and the spaces it inhabits.

Art is transformed again
in translation and interpretation,
reshaped by those who encounter it.

As creators, whether of images or words,
our work continues to live,
each viewer or reader sensing its energy uniquely.
And so it flows…
transforming itself in time.

The Power of Calm

There is charisma in calm

It’s the power of calm

In life’s highs and lows.

In calm lies confidence

Invoking assurance

Being calm in a conversation

Evokes the energy of stillness

Emits vibrancy devoid of agitation.

In the calm there is depth of  awareness

In the center of calm

Is potential  to assimilate

No matter the chaos

You find equilibrium.

When was the last time you felt the charismatic power of calm?

What does calm feel like to you in this now?

What is the distance  between you and your sense of calm?

Where & how do you think you can find your calm?

The morning moments

My morning  moments have the preciousness of calm for me.I choose dawn to intend the calm for the day ahead. In the quiet moments of dawn where the world is still sleeping, I find my creative state of flow. Although I have been able to connect  with my calm through the day, the vibes of this part of the day resonate so much. The early morning  sets the tone of the day for me.

How do you relate to the calm of dawn?

How do you sense the power of calm?

The Art Of Noticing

In every now

There is so much to note

Notice the bigger picture

The grand plan of nature.

Notice the sky

Holding the sun & the clouds,

The moon & the stars.

Notice the transitions

The fleeting nature

The pain & pleasures of life

Appear and disappear.

Notice the expansive infinite

Widening in your thoughts

Notice your breath dance,

Finding its rhythms.

Notice how the movements

And the stillness therein,

Are all part of the dance.

The Gift Of Change

Here I share one of my own paintings and a personal  favorite fron my collection.
Savvy Raj

In the vortex of life

arrives the gift of changes;

the breaking of the bubbles,

Of long held beliefs,

Of false ego and resistance

Of fear that limits.

Like the wind that’s too fierce  to contain…

Cleaning the cobwebs of confusion.

And life transforms for the better.

All in time

Every thought has its own flow
Every word finds its own space
Every space has its own synchrony
Every sound its own frequency
Every element, its own energy
Lets enjoy the space between the steps.
And acknowledge the  harmony in the synergy…

All in time.

Meet me in the middle

This poem will resonate with those in strong relationships  that stands the test of time and yet may find themselves challenged and at crossroads with differences in thoughts and opinions. Pretty much most who have experienced life together will find themselves in such predicaments time and time again.

In relationships when you are unable to see eye to eye, where past misses surfaces or future  expectations sideline the precious present, perhaps this poem can be a reminder of how far you have traveled  together to reach here.

All is not lost just yet… if you could only meet in the middle. For the strongest relationships survive in empathic understanding of each other through the thick & thin.

Meet me in the middle,
With an open mind,
Set aside differences,
We’re the same kind…

Today we may be at crossroads
looking with a different lens
But our hearts beat as one
Like it used to, years ago.
The feelings just the same…

So dearest one, sense it all
Memories are meant
To be revisited in time.
Think of how far we have come
And meet me not in the past
Nor in the the future
But right here in the middle
Of this present now.

Truth of love

The truth of love is acceptance…
The kind that is unconditional.
It asks not another
To change and fit a mold,
Nor expects you to compromise your values.


The truth of love is realization
Of your heart’s expansion,
And seeing the possibilities
Amidst life’s myriad challenges.


The truth of love is freedom
From control and suppression.
True love breathes free
And lives life lovingly.


In reflection…
Ultimately, love is not a destination or a demand; it is a quiet, daily momentum. It is the conscious choice to move through a complex world and simply live life lovingly.


Love is not a bond that ties us down, but an expansion that sets us free…

If love is an expansion rather than a bond, what is one unspoken demand you can release today to let your relationships breathe freer?

The inspiration for these verses in flow arrived in the moment I started  commenting on this interesting poem and its take on love.

Live life lovingly.

Truth of Oneness

You and I
May never meet,
But our thoughts
Interweave through words.


We may have unique names,
We may have different views,
Yet our journey is entwined
In the many paths home.


In every acknowledgment
Of this great truth
Of the interconnects
We align with ourselves.


Along our unique way,
The choice is ours
To find ourselves
In one another…


Living life lovingly.

Savvy

A note in gratitude for beautiful  response in a  comment on Interwoven from a dear reader, that sparked my third poem in this series on the very essence  of  Oneness.

My first poem Interwoven spoke of the universal source (nature, sun, ocean).

The second Endless Beginnings spoke of the internal journey (storms, dust settling).

With this third poem, Oneness,  I choose to honor  the bridge between people who may have never met face to face, yet are sensing moments of oneness simply entwined through words & mutual recognition.

Thank you for reading and responding with such heartfulness… Across time and distances  whenever we pause to acknowledge these interconnections, we not only find ourselves, but also send forth a ripple in the oneness.

Interwoven

The Sun emits rays,
And it feels they are sent to Earth,
But they remain part of the source.


A drop of the ocean
Becomes rain,
And merges back
Into the ocean.


All shapes and forms
Multiply and diminish,
As part of the same source.


Every energy is as it is…
Emerging and merging,
In time and patience.


You and I are not different…
We are part
Of the same source.


All that is,
Is one with the source.


In knowing that you and I
Are part of this source,
We enact the purpose
Of our being in faith & trust…


Emerging and merging,
Living life lovingly.

“If we are all beautifully interwoven with the same cosmic source, how can we step out into the world today and consciously choose to live life lovingly?
