Today I happened to glance up at the sky
I was taken by its beauty.
Brilliant hues of blue
Adding brightness to the world
Whiffs of white clouds floating around
Like cotton fluffs patterned as two beautiful swans
Swimming in pure blue sea.
I imagine then,
The Spirited sky sending forth a sign…
Around the horizon, a tinge of orange yellow sun
Spreading hope & possibilities.

I listened to my heart
Every day
As it shares from within
And I write them out as words
Sometimes as verses
At times it’s measured
In moderation.
Its a zen moment
For there is clarity
In just a few words shared.
Then there are times
They flow like a river
A torrent in a current
Patterning itself
In its own making
Words come through me
As if it needs to be spoken
Sharing the sensitivity
Of the moments at hand.
I listen simply with rapt attention.
For in the slightest flutter
In every movement in the moments
Or the depth of silence.
There is always something more.

Everyone has a different idea of true happiness.
What do you think you need to be truly happy?
Is it love?
Is it hope?
Is it purpose?
Is it inclusion?
Is it health?
Is it material or non material?
I do think happiness is an inside job.
We are responsible for our happiness.
Feel free to share your thoughts on happiness.

Good thoughts

Value the life in you
To care enough
And take care…
Then You are enough for you.

The Gift
We have a gift within each of us.
The gift of life!
It’s ours to take care.
We have another gift in and around us.
It’s in which we are.
The gift of this world!
It’s a gift we have for a while with us.
So that we can pass it on, to our children.
Let’s value the gifts we have.
Let’s remember to sense its preciousness.
Let’s never take it for granted.
For without it nothing is.
Savvy Raj
Words are mere words
Trying to justify the senses
A tool for expression
Language has its own limitations
And what to speak of love
For love is limitless
In its depth of feeling
Expansive in its reaching
Far beyond words in the knowing.
Language of love
Is best spoken sensed
From one heart to another
And what to speak of mother’s love
Unconditional in its flow
Sensed and known without a word
A bliss in the bless.
Pure and precious.

There is great power
In being yourself
You will know
You are enough
To be all that you are
Be you
That’s what u are meant to be
When you arrive at being comfortable being yourself,and in front of others, your gifts will shine through and you will make a positive impact on this world.
All it takes is being the authentic you!

A great share to remind yourself to check your current state of being. .
If only happiness can be summed up…
How easy it would seem!
But happiness can be elusive
When summoned it is often fleeting
But being able to take stock of your being
Will keep you aware
Of how much happiness is an inside job…

Life colours itself the way we choose to see it.
What we focus on, finds us.
Choose to focus on the good
Life begins to feel good.
Between the many colours
Of life’s journey…
What do you choose to focus on?
Savvy
Try to make at least one person happy every day. If you cannot do a kind deed, speak a kind word. If you cannot speak a kind word, think a kind thought.
Count up, if you can, the treasure of happiness that you would dispense in a week, in a year, in a lifetime!
Lawrence G. Lovasik
Loved the message in the quote…Build a treasure of happiness.
Ever Grateful for a powerful caption that once caught my eye
“Don’t bite more than you can chew….”
Denotes the wisdom of moderation in life and living. To know a cut off point
Is to know where to draw the line between exhaustion and excitement.
Simply taking on more work or responsibility or trying to multitasking beyond your abilities and capacities is self defeating.
So only commit to what you truly can deliver .
Not less not more.
So grateful to have read this many years ago and consistently practice this learning.
Happy to share this piece of advice that is my mindful reminder before taking on more.

Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Power of the Heart
What is your kind of power?
Power of Influence
Where your charisma
And your words and behavior
Hold them in sway
And allows you to lead
Or is it Dominance
Where your overt assertion
Makes you take charge
Wherever you are
Do you lead with your heart
Or is it all about the mind
The way you weild your power
Speaks much of you as a person
Are you powerful enough
To let love be felt & expressed
To have patience in waiting
To listen keen to what’s unsaid
To know that being gentle is strength.
Always remember the path of the heart
Is far powerful than the mind.
For its far expansive it knows the way.
Savvy
Sometimes you sense
Life taking you to places
Leading you to pathways Moving towards you.
Sometimes you notice
Signs that speak to you
Appearing and disappearing. From anywhere to nowhere.
It’s for you to understand
The significance of the signs
Now is the time to free your mind,
To listen in keen awareness,
And trust in the Universe There is always a reason
Nothing is coincidental.

LARGEST TREE IN THE WORLD
Location : Giant Forest of Sequoia National Park in Tulare County, California, USA.
The General Sherman Tree is the world’s largest tree, measured by volume. It stands 275 feet (83 m) tall, and is over 36 feet (11 m) in diameter at the base. Sequoia trunks remain wide high up. Sixty feet above the base, the Sherman Tree is 17.5 feet (5.3 m) in diameter.
Was wondering of the lifetime experiences that this tree must have been through.
Of how many seasons it must have seen
Of how it must have survived through the storms
As well as enjoyed the beauty of springtines
Of the countless lives it must have generously sheltered
And continues to do so….
Strengthened by nature
Thriving in the surviving
A Salute to the tree.
