Every day I write It’s been so for more than six years now I don’t plan on what to write I just put the words as they come But somehow from somewhere From deep within they flow Through me… And then one look at what I wrote I get the title immediately Many times the title comes first And I begin to write
And then I just happen to share with you all my readers Some of you engage with me all most daily
And I am so full of Gratitude for your presence here.
Thankful for your likes and comments You readers really make my day Especially when you leave a kind & thoughtful word. It’s truly special to see an old reader drop by chance and connect again It’s a wonderful feeling… When at the fag end of the day I sit to read your thoughts It makes me motivated to want to write some more.
Words are all I have To share with you I hope to share the best of them & I hope to read and learn from yours… And hope to stay connected With you in times to come For I believe to share is to learn some more…
At the 49th World Dance Congress UNESCO Mumbai. 2018. My lecture presentation on The Relevance of Dance Education in Communities to a distinguished world audience from the field of Dance and Dance Research.
I spoke about how learning to dance brought out massive changes in marginalised communities, senior citizens and also recited in a poem format, my learnings while teaching dance to Visually impaired school children.
There is so much power to movement to encourage, to give hope, and empower a life to sense the possibilities in their potential beyond situations and circumstances.
This image came up as a great reminder of that beautiful day five years ago.
At the heart of it all is the love I have to share the joy of dance movements. I have had some amazing experiences along the way over the last two decades of being a dance educator. I have enjoyed every bit of it. The learnings and the sharings.
Suffice to say that after all these years though I have moved to doing many more things along with my writings, the simple joy of dance will always keep me happy at heart.
Nowadays, I am finding there are lot of films produced on women empowerment in different languages. Perhaps this is what the public wants to watch. What is interesting to note is how well it resonates with our times.
I enjoy watching films that make you think and feel as much as I enjoy happy fun films
I just finished watching a new Hindi movie called Sukhee. It’s about a daring woman (Shilpa Shetty) who elopes and gets married to a man of her choice in her college days. In time she becomes a homemaker. But her husband over the years stops valuing her. She toils everyday at home but her daughter stops needing her. Her only desire is to go meet her friends and attend her school reunion after 20 years. But her husband does not want her to go.
Nevertheless she leaves them and goes to meet her school friends. She realises how much she has missed her old life and wants to stay back some more… But her husband gives her an ultimatum to come back now or never come back…
What decision she takes forms the rest of the story…
On Strength of Empowerment
We talk of strength and there are many strengths in the challenges Of Courage Of Resilience Of Tolerance Of Patience
Speaking of women, I want you to answer this following question.
Who is a strong empowered woman? The one who has the courage to get up and leave when she knows she is simply being used but not wanted? Or the one who stays and dares to change the equation?
What if storms come when in the middle of the ocean. What if volcanos erupt ,where the shelter is. . What if tsunami sweeps in while relaxing at the beach. What if earth quake shakes the ground underneath.
Human spirit is so strong It will overcome any obstacle that comes in its way. Strong is the will power and grit. Our race has seen all these and much more in the times bygone. Resilience and humanity overpowers all mishaps . We rise from the ashes to build from the scratch. We can make edges bend to make us the path to proceed. Never fall down. Never loose hope. Though life is a struggle We are meant to survive. Our faith and inner light are the anchors. Hope & effort are the oars that steer us forward. Keep moving. Keep winning. For we are meant to survive.
People we happen to meet Are perhaps meant to be met And then there are people We intend and choose to meet It takes will and effort Of commitment to a connection. And when it comes to managing it Care & connect from all of you! For even a single moment of authentic connection In thoughts words and deeds Is enough to make a indelible heart print. No matter your crazy schedules You create a bond lasting a lifetime…
I am truly fond of trees & of nature in every form. This is the result from the first time I used AI to create an image. And I was truly happy. For it generated from my few prompts, a very powerful & poignant picture, suiting my sensibilities.
Aesthetically & artistically it speaks much, especially liked how the red blooms emerge from the sides of the trunk interestingly juxtaposed & rightly so to colour balance the whole rendition well.
I love the light in the background especially behind the trunk of the tree. Of light that is gentle like dawn. As if to say I am there arising, just around to dispel darkness.
This above artwork I had posted yesterday on my blog post Light, it is a result of my imagination brought to reality by AI, the creator from my thoughts and words & it’s unparalleled knowledge and inputs. Perhaps I got lucky or perhaps my words hit home… I landed with a complete artwork.And suffice to say, I am truly happy with the results. I decided to add it to my profile pic.
What do you think of this artwork ?
What about you? Have you started trying AI images? What were your first experiences like? Did it meet your expectations?
Did you have to tweak your words & prompts? What was the feeling like? Were you able to relate with your output ?
Think yourself lucky Generate luck by will Intend luck in your life Sense the dance of abundance Acknowledge the Good in life Consider yourself lucky Master the art of thinking lucky.
Every moment creates it’s own energy. It manifests from intentions & the way we feel. For it can change the energy quotient in the Now.
I choose to sense the serendipity,
I envision it’s flow and perhaps a world that WALTZES magically in the serendipity.
I choose to find it in and around me.If I am feeling a little low…
I choose to reimagine the world in hope and intend in positivity.
The energies that surround us, listen to what we say in every second.
I am smiling as I have thought of this now.
I feel light in my heart and though I would love to fly to a million places all at the same time. But this now I have with me. I choose to value it’s infinite possibilities.
And I am grateful for this moment in awareness. Hope to share my heartfelt positivity for this now.
You Can If you only see the myrind patterns And colors of life, You will live to create If you could only believe In the vividity of the moment… If you could only sense the magic that life is meant to be You will… Paint your Life with Joy in the Flow Unwrap this Gift of Life Lovingly! Just Believe You Can… And You Can.
What makes a job well done ? What makes excellence a standard? What makes one stand out a cut above the rest ? What is aesthetics after all? What differentiates the good better and the best?
All is a matter of approach in every field of life. A shift in the perspectives brings home the amazing solutions. An approach that is creatively expansive than confounding, opens a box of possibilities .
We are all equipped to reach out into our own creative potential by just empowering ourselves with techniques of approaching a situation at hand.
Every one of us is endowed with the potential to develop our artistic abilities and approach with a creative eye.
It’s a matter of putting the principles into practise and taking that giant leap of faith.
What is your attitude & approach to life today?
What are you going to create for yourself in this now?
