Live Life Lovingly!

We reap as we sow…

We are the Universe
And the Universe is in us
In every cell in every breath
We are connected
But can we really say
We are born equally
Yes, we are flesh and bones
But we live our life differently
We have different experiences
In the interconnects all through
Are we not responsible for it?
The way we lead ourselves
The way we behave
Is the gamechanger.
For the law of nature
Knows not favourites
In nurture nature grows
Whatever is Sown
This is the reality
No matter the illusions
We reap as we sow…

To you my readers

Every day I write
It’s been so for more than six years now
I don’t plan on what to write
I just  put the words as they  come
But somehow from somewhere
From deep within they flow
Through me…
And then one look  at what I wrote
I get the title immediately
Many times  the title comes first
And I begin to write

And then I just happen to share with  you all my readers
Some of you engage with me all most daily

And I am so full of Gratitude for your presence here.


Thankful for your  likes and comments
You readers  really make my day
Especially when you leave a kind & thoughtful word.
It’s truly special  to see an old reader drop by chance and connect again
It’s a  wonderful feeling…
When at the fag end of the day
I sit to read your thoughts
It makes me motivated to want to write some more.

Words are all I have
To share with you
I hope to share the best of them & I hope to read and learn from yours…
And hope to stay connected
With you  in times to come
For I believe to share is to learn some more…

Thank you for the love you share here.

Chosen

Trust, that you are Chosen

To take a step towards change

To be the peaceful warrior

Who can brave new frontiers

With acts of kindness

And words of positivity

In goodwill do deeds for humanity

Bringing forth the best you can

And you truly can

Then every day feels meaningful

And with every now purposeful

You begin to understand

Who you truly are.

On Gratitude

Cultivation of Gratitude

Gratitude brings forth

A shift in perspective

In feeling thankfulness

In sensing appreciation

In seeing the glass half full

Than half empty

In seeing the sunny side

Of things than as cloudy

For the way of seeing

Is a choice in our hands.

Internal effects of Gratefulness

An increase in dopomine

Sense of satisfaction

A boost in sertonin

Feeling of positivity

Count your blessings

Gratitude makes us recognize and value things we already have even more. That is how it brings a sense of abundance.

Every day a practice of gratitude could include a variety of things that may feel right to you. From seeing the positives in a situation or in people, focusing on the good in life journaling regularly and being thankful, etc

A practice of living life with a positive attitude makes life more meaningful.

Give gratitude freely without holding back.

Thank you dear reader, Truly grateful for your time. Pls consider sharing this message of giving gratitude in this now.

Way of water

Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can’t go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does. ~Margaret Atwood

Loved reading this quote share on water. Being able to imbibe the nature of water speaks much of the person you are.

To be like water as Bruce Lee famously suggested, calls for flexibility, adaptability, persistence and most importantly humility.

Water is soft yet powerful in its ways. Overcoming rigidity with gentleness of yielding in the flow.

To be able to take on the mightiest rocks of resistance with the power of persistence in the flow.

And yet be able to take shape and mold along the vagaries of existence.

Water never competes for it is secure and complete in itself.

Giving in the flowing through Strengthened in the harmony of the very flow.

Water is what water does. Such is the way of water.

A Magnificent Masterpiece

Life is a reflection of our Creators magnificence

Of manifold dimensions, of magic and mystery 

Sometimes mayhem and melancholy…

Yet moving on to its own melody 

Mostly manageable and markedly memorable 

With every majestic thought of magnanimity …

All is truly well in mindfulness and moderation.

We are all masterpieces in making.

 Moving to unite as one with the master  

Only to manifest  in time as another magnificent  masterpiece

The Dance Of Trust

In the fragility of life

Lives trust in hope & faith

Strengthened by signs of integrity

Weakened by fear and doubts

In the labyrinth of this world

Trust dares to deliver itself

Finding its own way, invisibly

In its nuances rests complexities

Like mysterious & hidden stories

For trust holds itself through

Shaping itself in silence

Forging connections in time

In enduring or fleeting moments

This digital age is a tryst with trust

On what to believe or not to

In this era & changing times.

No matter the challenges

The nature of trust is trust itself

Like an intricate & sacred thread.

Reflecting in this sentiment

Embodying it, is this dance of trust.

Magic is in this now✨

How are you in this now?

What is the energy you are feeling?

Every moment creates it’s own energy. It manifests from intentions & the way we feel. For it can change the energy quotient in the Now.

I choose to sense the serendipity,

I envision it’s flow and perhaps a world that WALTZES magically in the serendipity.

I choose to find it in and around me.If I am feeling a little low…

I choose to reimagine the world in hope and intend in positivity.

The energies that surround us, listen to what we say in every second.

I am smiling as I have thought of this now.

I feel light in my heart and though I would love to fly to a million places all at the same time. But this now I have with me. I choose to value it’s infinite possibilities.

And I am grateful for this moment in awareness. Hope to share my heartfelt positivity for this now.

I trust this now,

For the magic is in this now!✨

Breathing Space

After every exhilarating day

Comes moments of confusion

Of thoughts rushing for attention

In not knowing which to focus

In the business of thoughts

In trying to make sense of it all

Even the most sorted of minds

Can find it all challenging

In such moments of a tango

Of multiple thoughts in the making

Take a moment to breath deeper

Attend to the breath for a while

As you sail on towards the breath

Trust thoughts to find a way

In the space between themselves

And it all begins to makes sense…

Written for a beautiful blessed soul who was sensing chaos after an extraordinarily happy but hectic day…

I hope she finds her mojo back✨⭐✨

On Spirituality

Whenever spirituality is discussed… there is always a question as to what is spirituality? And what is its significance in our lives?

Spirituality is a sensing of connection. The first step towards spirituality is about understanding the self as we are and then it’s an understanding of something greater than the self.

Simply put the spiritual significance of our lives is in the way we choose to live our lives.

To me spirituality is a sense of being & becoming a better person than yesterday, in selfawareness,in empathic connection, in being compassionate and kinder human being.

There are many pathways to explore spirituality and it’s unique to each of us.

It’s a pathway to finding the truth of your being and living life lovingly!

From yoga and movement arts to prayer and divination, the way we approach spiritual practices is varied and as unique as us.

What is spirituality to you?

Do you consider yourself a spiritual person?

What are your kind of spiritual practices?

Creators Masterplan

Some times life comes to a still.
That may be be Him testing will.

When we are low,
When we feel let down,
When we feel desperate,
when we feel alone, when we feel all doors are closed,
When life seems to have no meaning,
Never loose hope.

The master plan of Nature,
Is beyond our cognition.
The way will open up,
In any form, any time.
All we need is hope n faith.
Patience n perceverance.
The effort will pay off.
For He knows the right time and the right way.
Cos that’s
His Master plan.

Sharing this message of hope penned by my mother Anjana as a testement of faith and trust in the divinity providence.

On Meditation

Meditation is simply

A dedication of time

For your own self care.

It’s a way to tune inwards

In witness mode.

In the stillness as the mind quietens

Begins the path of your own

In self – expansion beyond self- limitations

Meditation is a choice you make

Unfolding the limitless potential you hold within.

When the truth tumbles…

Life as a couple

Has its own challenges

Yet what matters is trust

In a loving relationship.

Trust that makes you feel safe

That makes you sense security

And value for being you.

To be heard, & loved as you are.

Often expectations from one partner

To toe the line and accept everything

Brings in uncomfortable silences

Or unwanted arguments and conflicts

Breaking a relationship gradually.

Perhaps it is about negligence

Or lack of consideration & care

Perhaps it’s about lack of empathy

Or even inequality that creates a gap

That widens in time and cracks

The strongest of partners.

Compromise or need

May keep them staying together

Just existing not living a life.

The show goes on…

Until it one day becomes unbearable.

And the inevitable truth tumbles.

These words above are deeply interlinked in the flow of thoughts that arose after I read a translation by my mother from a Tamil quote forwarded on Social media.

Interesting to note it is from a divorced husband after 10 years of realization.

‘Don’t show your pride before your wife.
She came to you just believing in you
Not your relatives.

My property
My earnings
My will
Then who is she?
What is the meaning of her life with you?

Can’t she have her dreams, her  desires, to be fulfilled with you?

On reading this message

Something more rankled my mind

The question of expectations

To be fulfilled by the partner.

It’s never about needs

Being fulfilled by the other

But with one another.

In todays world

It’s about finding time

To be present in the now

With one another.

How many agree?
