On Being Happy

The moment you choose to be happy

No matter where you are

You begin to learn to smile from the heart

You begin to change the way you speak

You begin to listen deeply and be focused

On happier things than the mundane

You evolve and thank life…

Every day a little more in time

Being happy is a choice

And the choice rests with you.

Words to live by…

Live with authenticity

Pretense falls flat some time or the other

Steer clear of dependency,

Dependency create inequality.

Prudence is being always on guard

It is a better form of defense.

Listen to understand

Without trying to prove anything

Avoid the attack mode of offense

Choose to communicate better

Converse calmly create peace

Wherever you are …

Love

When you love deeply

You begin to respect life

In all forms that you see

You revere the omnipresence

You wonder about abundance in awe

Your life becomes more meaningful

For there is so much more to understand

About Life in the living

You become more present in the moment

Every now has immense potential

And you begin to live than simply exist

Live life lovingly!

Hope Against Hope

We brave the chances

We take the risks

We endure the worst

For we know the world is round

All is meant to flow

And hence there is heartfelt hope

In the most difficult moments

Simply know hope is here to stay

On Heartfulness

When life seem a little too chaotic

When time seems to zip past us

When you wish to pause and reflect

Can you begin to see with your heart

For the heart comes along with truth

Of the being betwixt all the frenzy & fear

The heart emotes and senses

In all authenticity and intuition

Choose heartfulness

Allow yourself to tune in to hear

The beat of the not so distant drummer

Be ready to listen to its beat in synchrony

For heart knows the path of the being.

Change is the only constant

We are all part of change

Speak of

Changing brains and body

Changing minds and hearts

Changing needs and wants

Processing change…


Is about letting in and letting  go
There is a sense of giving and receiving
A sense of gain and a sense of  loss


In acknowledgement and acceptance
Of the course of nature
In the circle of life


Our body intelligence
Helps in evolving  the self awareness
To  be adaptive and amenable to change


For change is the only constant

Life

One who knows the worth of life

Cannot afford to waste

Even a single moment of life

Care to take a step

Towards a more meaningful life.

Every now is awaiting your awareness

To envision the potential within

Every new day is a gift of possibilities

Care to make today count!

Breathing free

A beautiful share

“She sat at the back and they said she was shy,
She led from the front and they hated her pride,
They asked her advice and then questioned her guidance,
They branded her loud, then were shocked by her silence,
When she shared no ambition they said it was sad,
So she told them her dreams and they said she was mad,
They told her they’d listen, then covered their ears,
And gave her a hug while they laughed at her fears,
And she listened to all of it thinking she should,
Be the girl they told her to be best as she could,
But one day she asked what was best for herself,
Instead of trying to please everyone else,
So she walked to the forest and stood with the trees,
She heard the wind whisper and dance with the leaves,
She spoke to the willow, the elm and the pine,
And she told them what she’d been told time after time,
She told them she felt she was never enough,
She was either too little or far far too much,
Too loud or too quiet, too fierce or too weak,
Too wise or too foolish, too bold or too meek,
Then she found a small clearing surrounded by firs,
And she stopped…and she heard what the trees said to her,
And she sat there for hours not wanting to leave,
For the forest said nothing, it just let her breathe”

On Gentleness of Being

Life is precious
And so are relationships
Remember, gentle is the way 
When you walk with another
There is much you do not know
You never know the hidden truths
For some wounds are deep and invisible.
So walk gently, care sincerely live lovingly

IN THIS NOW

There is always a reason

We know not yet

Trust life to deliver

Know life is a puzzle

Every piece fits perfectly eventually

Keep your faith alive

And celebrate the life you have

In this now

A Face

A little bit of freetime and a mobile phone art app in your hand can make the moments come alive…

I started to paint the screen with all my favorite colors… but then somehow somewhere in between I sensed a face pop and I continued to sketch away at leisure and found a face staring righton .

Now the face was somewhat serious and I just could not gel with that, as the moment was anything but that, so I just had to play with my fingers on the screen just a bit and lo and behold that face was more appealing to me now.

It’s a work in progress…Yes I could have gone on refining this piece,there is a lot of room for it, but somewhere I just stopped adding more to it ,perhaps I might pick it up in posterity and paint some more.

P.s Must mention I used no stylus, just my fingers for this one. I thoroughly enjoyed creating this piece of art.

How did you like my mobile art ?

Which face resonates with you today?

A love like that!

Sharing thoughts close to my heart…

On Love

Realizing the many miracles of life is also in knowing love that can move the soul of our being. We can consider ourselves lucky to even have been touched by a love like that!”

Real joy!

This is a must read true incident share…

“I want to remember your face so that when I meet you in heaven, I will be able to recognise you and thank you once again.”

When Nigerian billionaire Femi Otedola in a telephone interview, was asked by the radio presenter, “Sir what can you remember made you a happiest man in life?”

Femi said:
“I have gone through four stages of happiness in life and finally I understood the meaning of true happiness.”

The first stage was to accumulate wealth and means. But at this stage I did not get the happiness I wanted.

Then came the second stage of collecting valuables and items. But I realised that the effect of this thing is also temporary and the lustre of valuable things does not last long.

Then came the third stage of getting big projects. That was when I was holding 95% of diesel supply in Nigeria and Africa. I was also the largest vessel owner in Africa and Asia. But even here I did not get the happiness I had imagined.

The fourth stage was the time a friend of mine asked me to buy wheelchair for some disabled children. Just about 200 kids.

At the friend’s request, I immediately bought the wheelchairs.

But the friend insisted that I go with him and hand over the wheelchairs to the children. I got ready and went with him.

There I gave these wheel chairs to these children with my own hands. I saw the strange glow of happiness on the faces of these children. I saw them all sitting on the wheelchairs, moving around and having fun.

It was as if they had arrived at a picnic spot where they are sharing a jackpot winning.

I felt REAL joy inside me. When I decided to leave one of the kids grabbed my legs. I tried to free my legs gently but the child stared at my face and held my legs tightly.

I bent down and asked the child: Do you need something else?

The answer this child gave me not only made me happy but also changed my attitude to life completely. This child said:
“I want to remember your face so that when I meet you in heaven, I will be able to recognise you and thank you once again.”

What would you be remembered for after you leave that office or place?

Will anyone desire to see your face again where it all matters?

How about trying to touch lives and make a positive difference in our own individual ways?.

Live light!

Carry yourself lightly

On the wings of hope

Let go of worries

Stay free of burdens

Care to let go…

Life is simpler in taking oneself lightly 🙂
