A true friend is there to support you if you fall.
Allow space for you to grow
Cheer you along the way
Take interest in your journey
Mean well for you
Stop you from self harm
Believe in you without a doubt
Yet dare to tell the truth to you.
Be with you so you are never alone.
Now think about it…
Are you your own best friend ?

All is in the journey of self discovery
The simple act of nourishing
The soul temples we live in…
Bringing balance, harmony
And happiness in and around us.

The heart feels
The mind thinks
And generates a seed of thought
But the heart is all encompassing
In the core of the heart
Is the garden of life.
The heart is all pervasive
The heart is willingness
It accepts the seeds of thoughts
It colours it with emotion
Sometimes in all its vividity
In the brightest of tints
Or at times in shadowing tones
Between the dark and light of life
The heart nurtures and nourishes
Thoughts seeds to life.
In positively enriching thoughts
It empowers life to evolve .
What truly matters is..
To plant a positive seed in your heart
Allow the mind to help the heart
Discard the unwanted,
Weed out the unnecessary
Trim the excess growth
Support the saplings of goodwill
Balancing between the heart & mind
Every moment of awareness
Can change the course of life!

In the journey with time
Life’s toughest battles
Always find a way.
Life goes on no matter
Paving the path
To find solutions
Along the way.
The wisdom of resilience
Is to acknowledge
The circle of life
Remember the challenges
Always surface a solution
Underneath the giant shadow of trees
Mushrooms possibilities of hope.
In difficult moments
Think of life
As ocean waves
Waltzing with the tides
Highs and lows
Are both part of the flow
Think of yourself
Realize you are
Not just in the flow
You are the flow
Sense the surge
Of empowerment
Flooding through you
In this very thought
You have it all within you
To steer through
The troubled waters
To bridge through the gaps
And find a way.
To rise above
The tumultuous waves
Always know
There is hope
In the horizon across
Light shines
Beyond the darkest night.
Change is the only constant
Like night and day
Nature shows the way.
Tumbling down
Is temporary
Flipping over
Is a fraction of a moment.
Eventually leading
To new beginning
In hope and trust.
For all is in flux
Course through
Sail through the waves
With a heart full of hope.

There is great power in words…
To charm another,influence or drive a point home.
Engagement online can turn better on bitter in a split second.
It is all in the choice of words used to convey a message.Crossing the Culture Threshold!
What to one might be just a poetic expression
To another might be a glitch of discretion.
Express if one must
Feel free to feel the way you feel is the way to feel
But only as long as anothers peace you don’t unknowingly steal.
For at times in the surging words of emotion…
Arises unnecessary stress and discomfort.
Better to know the pause in the space between our steps
And value your edges in every move.
For in every positive step in discretion
There is simply the strength of trust without mention.
When I penned these lines they were specifically for driving the message home gently that no one can tread on another’s emotional space without permission especially online using the power and persuasion of words…
True respect for another being can simply be about letting others be.

The art of giving time and attention…
Is worth mastering to have any
successful relationship.
Nothing worth having can ever be rushed.

The Road to Acceptance has many challenges in the learnings… not often easy, but certainly transforming in one way or the other.
Like there are many aspects to understanding
In acceptance there are many perspectives
Acceptance is not giving up or being in the same place.
To me a practice of acceptance is an ability to respect the now and in turn acknowledge the transient nature of everything.
To accept then is to be able to have a feel or a vision of the situation as it is experienced in the now.
The Paradox of acceptance is being defenseless to yin and yangs of life and living. Yet to envision that acceptance comes from a place of strength, is to be able to understand that we are not one entity but made of many parts that matter to the whole.
So the stance of acceptance is about flow & movements in the stillness , in hope to evolve in time along with the changes.

On letting go ….
Making peace with the now,
Very easy, they say.
Follow the breath,
And peace flows.
Yet…
We all know
That it is quite a task
To be consistent.
That’s how life is!
Such is truth in itself
In this now
As every moment
Gives in to the new.
We are meant to be,
To learn and unlearn.
Our senses,
Our emotions
Challenge us in the changes.
Our system takes a toll;
Our beliefs turn around
In soul searching ways…
And then, we learn to see
The moment as it presents itself.
All judgements and assumptions,
All prejudices and preconceived notions
Fade away into the oblivion.
We live in this moment.
In engagement again
But with this now,
Without forgetting what has gone
But forgiving times bygone.
For only then, we make space,
For peace to flow in…

Own your breath
Inhale the good
Let go the spurious
Anything that never matters
Is bound to bounce off.
What is necessary receive
With atmost regard.
Your breathe holds the key
Unlock the healing potential
As you breathe deeper
With all of your awareness
In every inhale and exhale.
Breathe in peace.

There is a place
That fills you with positivity
Enriches you with expansiveness
Embodies inclusiveness.
Enough to keep your faith going.
Endowed with trustfulness
Believe in possibilities.
A place of potential value
Thats nurturing in itself.
That lights the way forward.
A place that speaks to all of you!
A beautiful place called hope!
Savvy
There are signs that seem to appear
Out of nowhere
That make us hope, have faith
That help retain our trust
That shows the way
In our darkest hours.
There is a communion
Of our senses with our soul
A beautiful serendipitous wave
That washes through us
To bring clarity along the way.
The truth is always with you…
Guiding us to believe
To see the bigger picture.
To know nothing is accidental
There is always something more.
Savvy
Birds fly higher and higher
As if they are as light as a feather
They take themselves lightly!
Full of faith trust & self belief .
To be able to soar high
Onwards & upwards
Choose to let go of burdens
That create density
In thoughts words & deeds
Unfold the wings of freedom
Unfurl in the lightness of being
There is joy in sensing freedom
Thats who you truly are!

Here is a beautiful forward that caught my eye.
When they asked her to reveal her beauty secrets, Audrey Hepburn wrote this beautiful text that was later read at her funeral.
′′ To have attractive lips, speak kind words.
To have a loving look, look for the good side of people.
To look skinny, share your food with the hungry.
To have beautiful hair, let a child cross it with his own fingers once a day.
To have a beautiful poise, walk knowing you’re never alone, because those who love and loved you accompany you.
People, even more than objects, need to be fixed, spoiled, awakened, wanted and saved: never give up on anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a hand, you’ll find them at the end of both your arms.
When you become old, you will discover that you have two hands, one to help yourself, the second to help others.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, in her face or in her way of fixing her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the door open to her heart, the source of her love.
The beauty of a woman doesn’t lie in her makeup, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
It is the tenderness that gives love, the passion that it expresses.
The beauty of a woman grows over the years ′′
