Say Yes to Life

You are greater than your circumstances
And powerful than you can ever begin to imagine

And in all having faith trust & self belief by your side gives you the confidence to take a step towards your dreams and say yes to life!

Trustful ways

In any organization
When leadership listens
Empathy is nurtured
Safe space is created
Conversations  connect
Teams bond in trustfulness
Productivity rises
In balanced motivation
Both intrinsic  & external
Work becomes less dense
In collaboration & cooperation
Valuing diversity of potential
Possibilities are explored
Challenges gets simplified
Structure becomes systems
Protocols are in place
Change is acknowledged
In faith goodwill and trust
That we are stronger together
There is unity in diversity
As respect becomes culture.
Trust becomes the way.

Valuing Family

In every relationship

Family, friendship or at work

All is a matter of values

We inculcate through life.

When it all starts from respect

And ends with respect.

There is dignity of being

In a world distanced in reality

By technology and internet

Increasing the screentimes

And enslaving people

There is much need

To use it to our advantage

Than be redundant with it.

It’s possible

Infinite potential

Infinite possibilities

In every breath

Inhale inspiration

Exhale the spurious

Trust the power of the infinite

Possibilities in every now.

All is a dance

There is a dance
In every leaf and flower
In every bud and bloom
In every twig and tree
In every turn and twist
In every life in the living
Of natures creation.
There is grace of uniqueness
Of patterns, of wisdom Beyond compare…
All knowing, all pervading
Magnificent Omnipresence.
Amazing Nature
Amazing Grace.

Wind in the shell

We are all mere wind in a shell
Winding &unwinding
Our thoughts in every now


We are travellers shoring our souls
One beach to another
Evolving along the way…

Stories from Life and Living

In this series I share stories that are thought provoking, inspiring, motivational or touching our lives in some way or the other.

Better late than never

My mom had a lot of problems. She did not sleep and she felt exhausted. She was irritable, grumpy, and bitter. She was always sick, until one day, suddenly, she changed.

The situation was the same, but she was different.

One day my dad said to her:

– I’ve been looking for a job for three months and I haven’t found anything, I’m going to have a few beers with friends.

My mom replied:
– It’s okay.

My brother said to her:
– Mom, I’m doing poorly in all subjects at the University …

My mom replied:
– Okay, you will recover, and if you don’t, well, you repeat the semester, but you pay the tuition.

My sister said to her:
– Mom, I hit the car.

My mom replied:
– Okay daughter, take it to the workshop, find how to pay and while they fix it, get around by bus or subway.

Her daughter-in-law said to her:
– Mother-in-law, I come to spend a few months with you.

My mom replied:
– Okay, settle in the living room couch and look for some blankets in the closet.

All of us at my mom’s house gathered worried to see these reactions.

We suspected that she had gone to the doctor and that she was prescribe some pills of “I don’t give a damn about 1000 mg.”

She would probably also be ingesting an overdose.

We then proposed to do an “intervention” to my mother to remove her from any possible addiction she had towards some anti-tantrum medication.

But what was not the surprise, when we all gathered around her and my mom explained:

“It took me a long time to realize that each person is responsible for their life, it took me years to discover that my anguish, my mortification, my depression, my courage, my insomnia and my stress, did not solve their problems but aggravated mine.

I am not responsible for the actions of others, but I am responsible for the reactions I express to that.

Therefore, I came to the conclusion that my duty to myself is to remain calm and let each one solve what corresponds to them.

I have taken courses in yoga, meditation, miracles, human development, mental hygiene, vibration and neurolinguistic programming, and in all of them, I found a common denominator: finally they all lead to the same point.

And, it is that I can only interfere with myself, you have all the necessary resources to solve your own lives.

I can only give you my advice if you ask me and it depends on you to follow it or not.

So, from now on, I cease to be: the receptacle of your responsibilities, the sack of your guilt, the laundress of your remorse, the advocate of your faults, the wall of your lamentations, the depositary of your duties, who should solve your problems or spare a tire every time to fulfill your responsibilities.
From now on, I declare all independent and self-sufficient adults.

Everyone at my mom’s house was speechless.

From that day on, the family began to function better, because everyone in the house knows exactly what it is that they need to do.

Colours

Coloring all the way

Every flower speaks its truth

As much as every part of nature

Finding its own identity

Like day and night

Dusk and dawn

Colored through myriad hues of light

Creating hope and beauty of life

Nature says, in the most colorful way,

Flow through the day

Express your self uniquely along the way!

Happy Festival of Colors

Happy Holi!

Smile

A beautiful reminder worth seeing every day…

The truth is in shifting perspective with movements

The emotion you feel within changes everything

So if you begin to work on positive shaping

Of your thoughts with a simple smile

Then the smile begins to emanate from the heart

The way you see your life changes for the better

Keep smiling from the heart ❤️

On Nurturing

It’s all in the nurturing
Plant a life in hope
Nurture seeds of compassion
Water it everyday  with kind deeds
Nourish the roots  with care  Enrich it with  love for life
What you plant in your heart becomes you
And you reap what you sow

Now the question  is what are you nurturing  in this now ?
And what do you want to nurture today?

Balancing Life

No matter how busy you think you are

There is always space to learn and understand more

Space to grow and evolve

And it all starts with a little shift in perspective.

A little rebalancing from the way things are…

Work & life

It often amazes me to see the adulation that certain people have for being the first to arrive and last to leave their workplace. I wonder if anyone has cared to check how their families feel about this?

Many on the so called respected and admired list, are people who are workaholics, burning out by the minute.

They are there, working beyond the call of duty perhaps out of personal passion, sense of ownership and responsibility or even perhaps because they feel they can’t afford to fail, may be even because it gives them an edge of pride to be known as some one who is committed.

However life is about balance and simply put, more of one leads to less of another. The trick is the wisdom of balance and steering clear of extremes.

To every workaholic out there here are few reflections…

☆Avoid stretching yourself too thin.You are already on razors edge and you are hurting one part of your life, if you continue to do what you do. Reclaim your life. Find other passions and take care of your health. Stay safe than sorry.

☆Your personal life is at stake and is also your responsibility.

☆Bringing home the money and comforts is just one half of the whole. Your family is best nurtured by your loving presence in their lives.

☆Your absence at home and family/ social affairs is missed at first and then adapted with along the way to a point of being indifferent to your presence in time. Because you are never there for them.

☆ At a certain point in life, lack of care and connection begins to show and no amount of money can be valued over time .

☆Money cannot buy love they say and it certainly becomes true, as people begin to use you for your money and you will never feel fulfilled and content after spending it.

☆Everything around you becomes materialistic to the point of manipulation and its your own doing as you threw in the money and comforts where ever and whenever your time was required or requested.

☆Relationships become meaningless without a sense of togetherness. Missing out time with another in the excuse of being busy for years will take a toll on personal life. People will get used to you not being around for them and then expecting them to be there for you when you need them is a selfish ask.

☆Your children will be affected by your continued absence . Your presence in their growing years is very important for their holistic well being. Your partner will be angry or isolated with you. And expecting things to be different as you continue your ways is not going to change anything.

☆However in recognizing the signs of workaholic and your choosing to balance different aspects of your life will start making a meaningful difference.

☆For starters acknowledge your value for your time and energy.

☆Speaking of your energy , if you have spent most of your day at work , how will you find yourself able to give more of you as you have exhausted yourself

☆Recognize where it’s slipping away and start to chalk out a balancing plan. It can transform your life and those around you.

☆Find moments that are solely yours and use it for your personal development.

☆Your career is only one part of your life. It helps you sustain your life but the relationships you have nourishes you. Without it you have no true sense of purpose.

☆If you are one of those who are thinking of grabbing opportunities and climbing the corporate ladder acknowledge that you may possibly often have an unsatisfactory family relationship at the end of it all.

☆Your passion for your work may begin to affect your health watch out early signs of strain and stress and care to take help .

Thankfully today the world is more aware of work week and many countries are Consciously doing something about it. How it affects productivity in time will be seen and how much it could contribute to work life balance, but it definitely is time reclaimed for family.

The truth is its about prioritization of what’s important for well-being in life. Personal and professional lives both are important and have demands that need your time. So balance is the key.
