Connection is the root of compassion
When the heart senses alignment
Inside and outside
Everything begins to make sense
In the lightness of being
There is grace in the movements
Every thing flows as its meant to…
Spirited in connectedness
With hearts of compassion.

Tending & nurturing
Are deeply intertwined
Birthed in care
Having immense possibilities
In seeding compassion.
Healing the spirit & soul
Have you ever wondered
What is it in your life
That needs tending & nurturing?
Savvy
Unframe & Reframe
Breakthroughs happen
In the unframing.
As you break through limiting yourself
From cycles of conditioning
You will realize the truths
Of your potential.
You are far more
Than you allow yourself
To believe.
So move beyond
Cycles of limitations
Choose to rise above & see beyond
And over the challenges
Change the narrative
Reframe your thoughts
You are more than you know now
Sustain yourself
To find your limitless being.

There is a dog somewhere nearby
That is barking every once in a while
It is not the usual bark and not a yelp either
But I feel it’s something not ok
Perhaps it is loneliness
A yearning for a companion
Or a little comfort & care.
My heart aches to hear it every day
And wants to help.
But try as I might
Yet, I am unable to find the dog.
Till then ,
I hold my hand on my heart
If it is a pain of some kind
I pray that the pain goes away …
I send a healing light
To shift the energy & ease the dog.
Savvy
It’s not just in thinking
It’s in the feeling
That you can manifest
Your deepest intentions.
The power of heart
Knows no bounds
Such is the energy
In the emotions.

A slice of life
Poets may carve with words…
Emerging from life experiences
Lived or observed.
Poets may offer fresh perspectives Embedded in words in a flow…
In Poets, empathy makes you sense and relate with compassion, It makes you feel one with another.
Yet the poet is strategic as to be a poem the verses need to be well thought as much as well felt, as words manage to touch another soul in inexplicable ways.
Every poet balances the flow uniquely…
What are your thoughts on the above?
And how can empathy connect with poetry?

Hiroyuki Sanada once said, “There are those who want a swimming pool in the house, while those who have one barely use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a deep sense of loss, while others who hold them close often complain about them. Those who do not have a partner yearn for him, but those who have, sometimes do not value him. The hungry would give anything for a plate of food, while the well-fed complains about the taste. The one who doesn’t have a car dreams, while the one who has one is always looking for a better one. The key is to be grateful, look carefully at what we have and understand that somewhere, someone would give everything for what you already have and don’t appreciate.”
There is much going on behind a smile or a tear
As much as there is behind an act of aggression or care.
Truths that lie just over the bend
Masked in a show of strength
A veil may cover the apparent
But the body never lies.
It leaves imprints of expression
In every moment of now .
Truths that cannot be shared
Truths that needs to be dared
The body wisdom takes over
To make it through
To the truths over the facades.

I came across this interesting link share in my feed today. Do check
Has the fire died in me?
I ask, looking at the mirror
The mirror answered
Look again dear,
Perhaps you have missed
The simmering coal in your gaze
Like molten magma…
Perhaps tears you cried
haven’t dried as yet
Misting the view.
Am just a mirror dear
A reflection at best
But even a mirror cannot miss
The smoldering eyes of passion
The demeanor that speaks
Of resilience no matter
The ravages of time.
Yet the warrior in you burning bright.
The scars etched on your face
Are a testament of times
Of standing tall in adversity
As the storms passed by.
You ask, “Is the fire in you gone “
I say, I see them in all of you …
In your face and stance.
In all of your body, spirit and soul.
Speaking with all of you.
The fight is not over
As the day is not done.
I saw this line ‘the fire has died ‘ and I was inspired to write this poem.
Your thoughts are welcome .

Universal Oneness is an awareness
In reflections of the truth of the being
Interweaved and interconnected in every life .
Strength shines through the vulnerabilities.
As a power in the very fragility
Touched by divine grace
Enmeshed in the senses
Comes a consciousness of the flow
In and around us
Beyond the illusion of separation
Is the dance of connection.

Here’s a thoughtworthy share
Air Commodore Vishal was a Jet Pilot. In a combat mission his fighter plane was destroyed by a missile. He however ejected himself and parachuted safely. He won acclaims and appreciations from many.
After five years one day he was sitting with his wife in a restaurant. A man from another table came to him and said “You’re Captain Vishal ! You flew jet fighters. You were shot down!”
“How in the world did you know that?” asked Vishal.
“I packed your parachute,” the man smiled and replied.
Vishal gasped in surprise and gratitude and thought if parachute hadn’t worked, I wouldn’t be here today.
Vishal couldn’t sleep that night, thinking about that man. He wondered how many times I might have seen him and not even said ‘Good morning, how are you?’ or anything because, he was a fighter pilot and that person was just a safety worker”
So friends, who is packing your parachute?
Everyone has someone who provides what they need to make it through the day.
We need many kinds of parachutes– we need the physical parachute, the mental parachute, the emotional parachute, and the spiritual parachute.
We call on all these supports before reaching safety.
Sometimes in the daily challenges that life gives us, we miss what is really important.
We may fail to say hello, please, or thank you, congratulate someone on something wonderful that has happened to them, give a compliment, or just do something nice for no reason.
As you go through this week, this month, this year, recognize the people who pack your parachute.
Happy New Year
❤️
Question yourself
Am I thinking well?
If I were to choose a colour
What colour would my thoughts be in this now?
Are my feelings cold or warm?
Are my emotions overflowing or in balance.
Is my spirit shackled or free?
Are my thoughts racing or calming?
Your answers will speak to you,
Of your state of being.
If ever you feel the need to introspect and self regulate you can use these questions that came to me today to do a self check, as to where you are placed in this spectrum of life in the now.
Writing here every day on WordPress has drawn many readers who have messaged me their challenges and it is a privilege to connect, meet and also coach some of them.
As a writer and a life coach, I have been intentionally motivating with my thoughts over the years. I find joy in writing my heart out and yet be able to empower myself and my readers with positive thoughts. I believe it makes a difference and I hope to continue making these small yet positive impacts through my works, be it through art or words.
Feel free to share colours of your thoughts today here.
And I hope you have a beautiful time wherever in the world you are.

Wisdom continues to evolve
As change is the only constant
Knowing is never enough
Discerning knowledge with application makes all the difference.
Age of Aquarius
Some see it as the Age of the Aquarius, a dawn of enlightenment, but it is also a sign of changing times when there is greater access to knowledge and increased interest in holistic & spiritual practices and greater receptivity & awareness of values of empathy compassion and collaboration and therein interconnections.
Speaking of technology its transformations, while we are better informed, the human aspect of intuitive and ethical considerations play a significant role in understanding and application of this new age wisdom.
Now, this rise of a new age of wisdom could also mean more inclusive and divergent thinking in a more conscious and enlightened world.
The question then is, what resonates within and what we choose to do with it.
Savvy
True compassion knows no bounds.
It makes no difference.
Who is needing it.
All it takes is your open heart
And courage to flow along .
Sometimes to places
That none dare
For hearts know not limits…
Savvy
Watch this amazing heart so full of compassion love and dare all together ❤️
