Every part of nature has a reason to be
Every plant a sign of possibilities
Every tree a symbol of purpose
Every bud symbol of hope in the blooming
Every bloom a sign of joyfulness of being.
Nature is abundance
With all colors shapes and patterns
If happiness is a colour of a flower
Which one would it be for you?
In this now would pick brightest of blues
Would not hesitate to pick the purples
Would also be inspired by golden yellows
What about you?

Life is what you make of it!
It can be the way you choose it to be!
It is a reflection of your state of being.
Life is heaven or hell in this now
Truly beautiful or unbearable
All in the how you want to see it.
It’s not about perfection
For nobody’s perfect
Life & living can be perfectly Imperfect
Seek excellence if you must
Seek to be the best version of you!
And find the wonderful in today!

Life challenges us all in every moment
Yet love is the way to surmount the odds
For life to truly thrive in wellbeing
Making this world a better place.

Every life has a unique story.

This is the story of Cara Khan whose sense of spirit & adventure made her dare the seemingly impossible …
Cara E. Yar Khan is an international human rights advocate promoting the inclusion of people with disabilities within all facets of society.
Thank you my dear friend Ali Anani, for it was you who shared the above Ted talk link and suggested I share a few thoughts on her.
I dedicate these following verses to her daring spirit and dancing soul!
Life is
Inexplicable uncertainty in the now
Undefinable strength in the moment
Unimaginable challenges that arise
Infinite possibilities in the potential
Unstoppable hope in the living
Be it in strength or inspite of weakness
No matter the threats or unexpected opportunities
Life shapes and moulds in experience
Be it the desires, wants or needs
Life is a journey unto itself
Life is a circle in the living.
In salute to the very courageous Cara E. Yar Khan
Her inspirational life story is an epitome of the magic of living a bigger bolder and yet a purpose driven life,
In her I see the verve, and enthusiasm in pursuit of her Passions
and her drive towards her Purpose
as much as the Perseverance to attain it.
And when these 3 Ps combine, success is bound to manifest itself.
What matters is that she ignored what was preposterous and dared to dream.
Ignore the naysayers
You have one life
Live it well
Give it the best you have got!
Keep the faith in trust and self belief
Let go of illusions of less in assumptions
You have everything you need within you
In daring beyond doubts &fear
Living life lovingly!
Truly nothing is insurmountable
There is in you, the power
That manifests when you need it most
You may not know the strength
And capabilities that you are carrying.
But it is always there with you
Simply trust in yourself
To be there for you!
You are more than enough for you!

A thought is a full circle
From synapse to the sensing
It travels beyond spaces and back
Symbol of life in the buzzing.
In the circle of life and living
Arises sparks of thinking in the sensing
Many thoughts may come and go,
Sometimes structured & logical,
At times they disappear in a moment
Yet some thoughts leave imprints in time.
As thoughts keep on arising
These dots of thoughts shape into patterns
Emitting in the strength of momentum
To countless circles of thoughts in the propelling.
Think well Imagine the good!
Savvy
Take a deep breath
To truly be able…
To Breathe in ease
feel the peace deep within.
Take not this breath for granted
Know the gift of grace in every breath.
Inhale and exhale
Sensing Gratitude in every breath
Savvy
Laugh as much as you breathe
For laughter is a great healer
Laughter strengthens and protects you
For laughter is a stress buster.
Laughter can diminish & relieve pain
And renews the spirit with energy.
Laugh to lighten the day’s worries
Laugh to relax the muscles.
Laugh to infuse good energies
Laugh as much as you can….
For laughter can shift perspective
Make the moods lighter
When you laugh you brighten this now.
So keep smiling ,find your inner child
Every breath every day!

A Sufi Tale:
A merchant from Baghdad entered a Sufi’s shop, which had essence jars on the shelves.
Marveling at the beauty of the place, he asked, “Sir, what is sold here?”
The Sufi replied, “The gifts of God”.
The merchant was surprised with the answer, & asked, “And how much do they cost?”
“Nothing, here all is for free”, said the Sufi, observing carefully, that the traveller could see the labels: “Jugs of Love”; “Jars of Faith”; “Packages of Hope”.
The merchant said, “A big jug of love, all the packages of hope & three jars of faith for me, my friends & my family”.
The Sufi carefully prepared the order & handed him a small box.
Surprised, the merchant exclaimed, “But, but…. how can everything I have asked for, be in this tiny box?”
Smiling, the Sufi replied, “In God’s store, we do not sell fruits, only seeds. You have to sow them.

When what you say
And what you do
Are congruent
The effect of your words & deeds
Radiates all around you in resonance.
It’s no wonder then that
In a world that seems so dissonant
Words and deeds need to synch.
In harmony of such synchrony
Faith and trust meet belief
And that’s what makes all the difference.

Perfect pollinators
Supporting the ecosystems
From wild flowers to food crops
For Interconnections run deep
With the plant and animal kingdom
As much as with all of life and living.
Its said, if bees become extinct as a species
We humans will cease to be, in just four years
They not only produce the nectar of life
Bees sustain the delicate balance
Of the environment of our world.

Dance you heart out
Walk your worries away
Talk to lighten the load
Breathe easy
Sleep well
Take on only what you can,
Have and appreciate good memories
Express love and love yourself
Take note of the good always.
Couldn’t agree more…
To be able to let go is to live life lightly.
What about you?
Do you have anything to add to this list

Whenever I come across a heart touching action, or a prose ,a poem or quote I will be sharing it here in this series…
Some people make the world a better place by their thoughts words and deeds...
When the sport turns to a dance…
When the feet move in a rhythm
All its own, in uniqueness
Artistry is acknowledged.
An Inspiring life
Friends
See, Brazil’s under 17 footbal coach Amadeu Carlos who is “just” 76 years old.
This is called Brazilian football magic…
He proves “Age is just number.”
Amazing skill, energy and stamina.
This above information is social media forward, yet when decided, I wanted to learn more about him. I found that his age is misconstrued.Yet whatever the age, age is just a number, his skill is clear to see and that’s what is beautiful to see.
Here is a (wiki ) snapshot of his life and living.
Carlos Amadeu Nascimento Lemos was a Brazilian footballer and manager who played as a left back. He represented Bahia as a player before injury curtailed his career. He went on to have a managerial career which spanned almost thirty years.
This is how he sums up his country and its relationship with their favorite sport….“In Brazil when a child is born, the first gift for him is a ball. Our relationship with football is huge. We are a footballing nation and we like that”

Life can challenge us in the living
Each moment can throw us into a maze
That we need to go figure for ourselves
Personally speaking…
I turn to self reflection and solitude walking in contemplative introspection, when I need to rebalance and align myself , as in doing so I am able to understand and reconsider how difficult it has been, given the circumstances and I comfort myself by acknowledging that I have done my best.
I am grateful for this ability to write and paint my heart away, and express myself through arts, just as much as being kinder and compassionate with myself. For in every such moment, I am learning to be a better me.
I also find great solace in meditative movements and soulful dancing that help me bounce back to normalcy.
In difficult times what keeps you sane?

Night is a time of regeneration
In acknowledgement of a pause
Of the need for rest and recovery
As the day blesses us with a night
Own the time to sense the rejuvenation
Slip into bliss of sleep,
In the oblivion of darkness
That slowly descends on us all
Just be , knowing the night gives in to dawn
In a few hours more…
Be wise to unwind and unshackle.
Touch base with your soulspace
Refresh your entire being
To look forward and greet dawn again in hope
