As seasons change
And yesterday is behind us
And the day dawn once again
Let us celebrate life
In and around us
Respect the value of abundance
Let us share a moment
Of reverence for the blessings
Bestowed known & unknown
In each now then and onwards
Life is meant to thrive.

Meet life with enthusiasm
Build cheer to cope with disappointment
Build resilience to face challenges
Build courage in the changes
And sense life in faith & humility
Namaste 🙏
Being rich is living life exploring and discovering all your possibilities of your potential
Being rich is being able to realize the potential of you.
Being rich is being ready to sense the abundance that is.
Money is not necessarily the only factor for your worth.
Your worth is being all that you are.
You are rich in knowing your worth.
Be enriched in health wealth & prosperity but most of all be rich in the heart and mind.
In realization of the contentment of what you have, you are truly rich!

What to speak of charisma
That some have as an aura…
A way of being , a radiance
More than just their attitude
Or the way the carry themselves
A quality of the spirit of the soul
That magnetic quality beyond the physicality
That emanates joy and well being in Abundance
Without a single word…
Would you know someone like that?
Who comes to your mind?
Savvy
A glimpse of the intangible
Is often visible through signs
Like the strength of the soul
Appears in true forgiveness
In letting go of fear of failure
In ability to start all over again
In letting go of negativity
In ability to center the self
In letting go of revenge mentality
In the ability to share kindness
In sensing the lightness of being
In awareness of the bigger picture.
The strength of the soul shines through.
Savvy

What makes me feel peaceful ?
Just spending time with our little furball combing his long coat every other day makes me feel peaceful.
A little moment every now and then writing my thoughts down feels peaceful
Spending time alone witnessing the stillness of the breath or practicing Qi Gong in the garden with green trees for company makes me feel peaceful.
Meditative moments especially at home in front a Buddha statue makes me feel peaceful.
Painting and dancing without an agenda, on my own, whenever I wish to, makes me feel peaceful.
But most of all…
Living in the now, without too many expectations makes me peaceful ✌️
What makes you feel peaceful?

Perfection is never the inspiration for nothing is perfect always.
Acknowledging ones imperfections & managing it with grace is true inspiration.
The need for perfection creates undue pressure. Being able to work on the journey without undue pressure can be joyful journey.
What are your thoughts?

Sit down with your feelings
Like a good friend
Listen to it to understand
What it conveys to you
It works out for you.
Your emotions are not your enemy
They are your vent
They are your support systems
For the body to feel at ease
Be a good friend to you
And your emotions will thank you
As you thank them.

A story share
A young girl was studying in a school.
She hadn’t been to school for four days because she was not feeling well.
When she went back to school, there were a lot of lessons taught.
To catch up on the lessons, she asked her best friend for her notes.
But her friend refused to give her the notes, saying she had to study them that evening.
Feeling dejected, she couldn’t get the notes copied.
Another girl came to her aid and gave her the notes, helping her out.
The girl was heartbroken that her best friend didn’t help her. She remembered all the times she had given chocolates and colored pencils to her friend.
Reflecting on this, she felt extremely sad and cried, becoming obsessed with the thought.
“Obsessed” means thinking about something repeatedly. She couldn’t stop thinking about her friend not giving her the notes.
She couldn’t eat lunch properly, came home, and sat quietly.
She couldn’t talk properly, watch TV, or laugh. She couldn’t sleep that night, thinking about it all the time. The next day was a school holiday, but she couldn’t enjoy it.
That day, her family went to a park. Her father put her on a swing and started pushing her. The swing went higher and higher, making her happy. She screamed joyfully, asking her dad not to push too hard. Her dad kept pushing, and after half an hour on the swing, she got down and played more games.
She forgot her anger and sadness towards her friend, feeling at peace.
That night, while sleeping, she reflected on the following points:
Point 1: It was wrong of her friend not to give her the notes. Why should she lose her happiness, appetite, and laughter over it?
Point 2: Maybe her friend genuinely needed to study and couldn’t give her the notes.
Point 3: Being angry at her friend made her distance herself from her loving parents.
Point 4: Constantly thinking about anger and irritation towards someone is torturous. It prevents us from doing anything else.
Point 5: Why didn’t she try to forget her anger for even five minutes? She felt excited while on the swing and forgot her anger. Why didn’t she think about getting out of the problem?
Reflecting on these points, she reached a conclusion.
Thinking negatively about anyone all the time will prevent you from being at peace. It drains our energy and makes us unable to enjoy life. Therefore, she decided to stay friendly and cheerful.
She woke up energetically,
greeted her parents,
took a bath and wore her uniform,
ate her breakfast, packed her bag,
and as she stepped out, sunlight shone on her face.
Her face looked brighter and more beautiful in the sunlight.
When our thoughts are good, our actions will be good. When our actions are good, our life will be good.
