What was freshness of springtime
Matures with the changing seasons
At times hot dry or humid summers makes life unbearable
Soon the downpour of rains flood the parched land with greens
Another autumn as orange rust leaves renew themselves
Winter chills brings it’s own white snow at will
Trees bereft of leaves lay bare their dark branches
Awaiting for another change of season.
And life goes on…

Be so engaged with your life that you take all of you in whatever you do!
Find yourself!
How involved are you in life?
In your passion?
In your engagement?
In your purpose?
In your life’s moments?
What is it that makes you go on
Taking all of you
Into whatever you do?
Perhaps…
You have an answer within
You are already on your path!
Creating anything worth having
Can take all of you
To be involved to be engaged
With a purpose that drives you…
Beyond yourself!
And you find yourself!

Trust & Idea sharing
Building trust creates a rapport for greater communication.
Besides listening actively, addressing any issues and finding resolutions together immediately builds trust in a team. Being authentically approachable adds to the trust. Creating a transparent process and protocols for idea sharing helps. Showing appreciation for the ideas generated brings forth confidence to share more. Most importantly, giving credit where it is due by acknowledgements fosters trustful teams. Creating a responsive, cohesive and collaborative team requires transperncy in purpose.

When there is authentic effort
When the intentions are expansive
And the purpose stronger together
In the journey of life
Dreams take roots to realize itself.
Seeds to trees
Trees to forest
Barren lands turn fertile greens
Salute to this inspiring couple who created a forest out of barren land.
Together they have planted more than 2000 trees… Do read more…

Inculcating a habit of listening to music regularly, or even practicing music by learning to sing or playing an instrument, can improve your creativity.
Learning anything new can spark new neural pathways and bridge old learnings in associations to ignite unique creative expressions.
As far as music it is a holistic experience with benefits much beyond its entertainment factor. The right music can heal and regenerate cells in our body.
Music can be a healing medicine for the body, mind and spirit. Personally, like for many of you, I love many art forms, like music, dance and painting, writing and singing because they have an immensely positive effect on me. It makes me whole again, ready to face a new day… For instance, I am fond of different types of music at different times of the day…often I sense how refreshed I feel after listening or singing to them.
At home every once in a while my daughter and I find singing mashups of old and new songs together on the Karaoke very rejuvenating…One thing leads to another, humming or singing some melodies while going through the day, makes the moments feel light. I also find listening to gentle, soft instrumental music while painting very enjoyable.
What are your experiences with music?
When was the last time you heard your favorite songs?
When did you do something creative while listening to music?

Peace is a force of nature
Creating strength within you
To face life with a calm presence
Unrattled and focused in approach
When peace flows in you
A river of joy flows through you
Cultivating compassion
And connection to all of nature.
In the peace of mind and heart
The spirit is at ease
It is gentle in its presence
Yet creates nerves of steel
Peace dares to be at ease.
In the journey through life.
Such is the power of peace.

Sometimes after we have done our very best
We need þatience as much as perseverance
Time heals it all they say
In throes of torment
We need to trust time to pass to a better moment.
We need patience in waiting.

Sharing my verses that was inspired by vivid thoughts on Oneness.
Colours of the spirit
Pouring from the heart
Sensing the feelings
Evoking the emotions…
If every colour in the sky
Rained down on earth
If every colour of the rainbow
Poured itself out from the cup of life
Colouring the planet in vibrance
The world may see these very colours
In the deepest core of the earth.
For as is above so is below…
Nature is abundant in its flow
In the river of time
Trust nature to paint in vividity
Splashing on the canvas of the earth
Painting patterns in the fluidity…
The sky and land
The mind and body
The spirit and the soul
Aligning in the Oneness of the flow.

Sharing a Social media forward…
At Techno Pacific University, a speaker asked a woman among the audience:
“Does your husband keep you happy?”
The husband, sitting nearby, straightened up confidently. The reason was, his wife had never complained about him. He was happy.
However, the wife clearly said, “No, my husband doesn’t keep me happy.”
The husband was shocked, but the wife continued:
“My husband hasn’t kept me happy. He hasn’t made me happy. But I am happy. My happiness doesn’t depend on him. It’s up to me. Whether I am happy is a matter concerning myself.”
“Being happy at every stage of life is my decision. If I depend on others for my happiness, or on certain things, or certain moments, it means I am in big trouble.”
“Everything around us keeps changing. People, wealth, my body, temperature, my boss, pleasures, friends, my physical and mental health, all of it. It’s a long list.”
“No matter what happens, being happy is my decision. Whether I have a lot or a little, my happiness doesn’t diminish. Whether I go out or stay at home, whether I am poor or rich, my happiness doesn’t diminish.”
“I was happy before marriage, and I remain happy after. I am happy about myself because I am happy with myself.”
“I love my life not because it is easier than others’ lives, but because I have decided to be personally happy. I am responsible for my happiness.”
“When I hold this as a decision in my mind, I remove the burden from others to make me happy. This makes everyone’s life easier. That is why my life has been happy for so many years.”
The applause didn’t stop.
Don’t assign the responsibility of keeping you happy to others.
Whether it’s sunny or rainy, you are unwell, poor, injured, or unloved, do not give up the happiness within your mind.
As long as you respect yourself wholeheartedly, you will find happiness within yourself.
Happiness is within.
It’s not outside!
Belief is an act of invoking wisdom.
Trust in waiting is true acceptance.
Allowing is an act giving in faith
Receiving in humility balances the ego.
Trust and believe in the infinite abundance
Allow yourself to give and receive
Let your intentions be guided in goodwill and grace.
Abundance manifests!

Emotional Health & Intelligence
Your emotions are your friends. Sometimes you find them at war with each other. They need your understanding. They are your supportive vents of expression to take the pressure off and make you sense the pleasure of life.
Create a beautiful life by improving your emotional health. And develop your emotional intelligence. It helps you identify where your strengths are and where you need to work on.
Emotional intelligence gives you a headstart in managing not just your emotions but also an ability to understand and to even influence anothers emotions.
In leadership roles this gives you an edge in managing people and teams
So how can you begin to improve your Emotional Intelligence?
Start by cultivating empathy for life. See things from anothers perspective. It will increase your understanding and help build strong relationships.
Work on your communication skills by practice of listening actively and respectfully. It can positively impact the way you are perceived.
Practice self awareness to become more mindful of how you feel and how your own emotions affect your thoughts and actions.
Acknowledge stress and balance it well by being active by regularly walking or picking a sport, or even dancing.
Think positively about life by inculcating a positive attitude.
At the same time allow your self to seek feedback to understand where you are doing fine and how to improve further.
Emotions are part of being human. Working on your emotional health and developing your emotional intelligence can be a game changing skill in life.

How much of you do you give in any relationship?
Today I am sharing a thought Provoker. This came as a social media forward. But it was thought worthy and I do have a few questions as well.
Speaking of relationships, have you felt drained out beyond compare?
Instead of feeling energetic after an interaction or a conversation, have you felt like when will it end?
When was the last time you felt a little too empty?
Do you stop giving, if you feel it is an unequal relationship and you feel pulled from all directions or due to habit or situation you continue to give as you do?
If you are a giver by nature, can you actually stop yourself at all?
It’s truly important to acknowledge your emotions and feelings. It helps to know your energy shifts.
A Stringed Existence
There is a lot of inextricable strings of emotions linked to relationships but if you are constantly feeling drained out and exhausted when with certain people, perhaps you need to check if you have over invested yourself. Be it in career as a workaholic or in family where your sense of self is feeling lost.
You have one life & it is your life…
Pause and take a breather and set yourself back on course.
While there are many kinds of people you meet. And it is really OK to be extra helpful, and give the best you can. In fact it energizes abundance to manifest in life… For when you give from a spring well of kindness, nature sets in motion, a share of kindness back to you in its own time.
Yet like many are energy givers, there are many energy takers. Often unknown to themselves they behave in a way that saps anothers energy when they are around you.
Do remember who ever you are with… Giving more or less will not have value. For less is not fulfilling and more is just excess and will never be utilised. But will certainly tilt your balance for sure.
In your actions too, exercise this wisdom and you will find yourself in a good space.
And most of all…
Choose your tribe well. It makes all the difference.

All of creation has a purpose to its being.
It charts its course towards it.
If we are able to understand the reason for life is to be…
As it is meant to be
We will be more tolerant and inclusive
We will think before we speak
We will choose to see the good and nurture the good.
What we choose to notice life presents itself in many ways
As the way we choose to see the world
The world mirrors itself to us.
See the world with wonder and awe
Choose to respect and be responsible
Cultivate a sense of respect gratitude.
For the infinite abundance called life!

All is never lost
Until you stop
Seeing the world
With eyes of faith
For faith is in you
To build and sustain
For a lifetime
So trust yourself
Witness the miracle
And keep the faith
All is well
