Creativity is innate potential.
Deeply entwined in humility
In every realisation of potential infinite.
Creation manifests itself time and again.

Care or control?
Care or Control?
I was in consultation with a middle age couple.
They started fighting right in front of me.
The upset husband said-
See doc….
I ‘Care’ so much for her & this is what I get in return.
To which the fuming wife replied-
He doesn’t care…
he just ‘Controls’!
The care from one person was perceived as control by another!
This made me think…🤔
What is Care and
What is Control?
How to identify them?
Soon
I received the answer.
I had an argument with my teenage daughter over a trivial disciplinery issue…
Harsh words were exchanged leaving both of us in tears…😪
After sometime,
as our emotions settled down ,
We said sorry to each other…
My daughter hugged me and said-
Papa ,
You know why you got upset?
You were not upset because I did wrong.
but u were upset because
I didnt follow your instructions…
there is a big difference!
I was stunned with her mature thinking pattern.
I received my answer too…
I was trying to Control her under the disguise of Care…
that caused the conflict ….
If I really ‘Care’ for someone ,
I will not get upset or angry with that person…
I will keep searching different ways to help him…
If I am struggling in any relationship…
I need to closely observe
If there is any subtle Control hidden behind my apparent Care…_*
‘because
“Care is an expression of love
While Control is an expression of ego…
Control cuts…Care connects
Control hurts…Care heals.
Keep Caring for people
but dont Control them …
because
Often people are not wrong…
they are just ‘different’.
Keep Caring.
Being as you are…
Your life is a gift.
Explore the best in you
Take charge of yourself!
Choose to know your strengths.
Than search for influencers outside
Choose authenticity, to be real
There is much within awaiting you
So much to simply be…
It is actually simpler to be yourself. There is something that each of us can do better than any other. So important then to listen to the inner voice and bravely obey that.

Courage matters.
Courage plays out in numerous ways
Sometimes as acts of dare
Changing the path of destiny
Sometimes it is the resilience to brave
All odds with humility and honour.
Sometimes it is courage that speaks boldly
Where voices are muffled in fear and favour
Othertimes courage bears it all in forbearance
Withholding in the wisdom of patience.
Whatever the path courage takes
When Courage speaks
There is bound to be a breakthrough
There is hope and faith
A belief in humanity
A deliverance in trust
To stand up against all odds
For a cause or a person or reason.
Speaks volumes of the spirit in the daring soul.
No act of dare is insignificant
For every act of courage
Leaves an everlasting imprint
Inspiring the aspiring
Encouraging and motivating
Improving and imploring life
To hope for the better.
That there is a light of dawn
After the plight of the night.

SYNCHRONICITY OF INTENTIONS
We are so caught up in the external knowledge, that we at times fail to connect with our inner awareness.
Conscious awareness is immense power in one’s hands.
Our thoughts are intentions, inseparable from everything that exists. But very often it is blocked with unnecessary anxiety, discontent or other negative emotions. Intentions as energy fields can be powerful, but the collective consciousness of intentions towards a larger good can be even more so.
We have the choice to choose wisely and create the beauty of synchronized creative patterns. Look around us and we can observe nature which blesses us when in the harmony of synchrony.
Each of us is uniquely blessed with the power to choose thoughts that can transform the life within us and around us for the better. This is the first step to touching lives beyond dimensions with the synchronicity of good intentions.
A prayer towards general goodwill is a good example of synchronicity of intentions.
After all, intention too is a form of prayer. And more the attunement to an intention more the chance of manifesting the energy of synchrony.
In every moment the choice of any thought and creative enterprise is, was and will always be with us …
Let’s care to choose well!

a little more everyday 🙂
Some day you will be thankful
How far you have reached!
Every moment is an opportunity
To reach out and grow
Evolve for the better
Be open to the unfolding life
Strech yourself a little more every day…
To accommodate
To acknowledge
To accept
You will find your strength
In flexibility
In adaptability
In your vulnerability
You will find new frontiers
That you paved along the way.
Trust yourself a little more
There is so much out there
If you are willing to see and learn
Reach out & truly care to share
The simple joys of being alive.

On Self esteem
Self Esteem is deeply entwined with our inner confidence and the way we choose to behave in this world.
Unfortunately it is also influenced by many external factors which could be peers , family , relationships , and even state of health at the moment.
People who have a strong foundation of self esteem will tend to see the value of a life well lived.
If your feeling undermined by someone who brings you down at every opportunity, who sabotages your growth by clever manipulation you can rest assured they are not on your side. In fact they are the ones saddled with insecurities and self esteem issues and the sooner you distance yourself from such people , the better you are going to be.
No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow. Alice Walker
A few surefire ways to develop your sense of Self Esteem.
1 : Unlearn the negative patterns of thought.
2 : Create a habit of speaking mindfully
3: Choose to believe in your self worth.
4: Choose to forgive and let go baggage.
5: Keep learning & updating your skills.
Most importantly, celebrating the little things in your life makes you realise your self worth… so be a friend to yourself. It truly matters a great deal!
You owe it to yourself …cos you are worth it.

All is a part of life!
Here is share of my mothers reflections after reading my yesterday’s poem
Every example stood out for me and I just had to share .. with some pictures for the same and a title.
“A seed has to undergo so much to come out of the earth with new shoots of tender leaves
Gold nuggets have to undergo much before they become beautiful ornaments
Raw diamonds and precious stones have to undergo much to get their brilliance .
A mother has to undergo so much before the birth of a wonderful life.
A rock and tree have to so much undergo before they become priceless sculptures
All things of Nature have to go through a lot of transformations before a finer end product emerges.
Never fear the blow of the hammer, the cutting of the axe, the heat of the burning fire or the hurts, pains and insults one has to bear as each blow makes them stronger, shapes them to what they are going to become. Gives them more power, value and a beautiful form.
Keep smiling. The smile and silence can unsettle the opponent.
Make each experience as a stepping stone to rise high,
A lesson to learn, to mould you to become a better, stronger, mature, independent and fearless as a person than before.
Remember there is dawn after every dusk.
Yes, your transformation will be hard. Yes, you will feel frightened, messed up and knocked down. Yes, you’ll want to stop. Yes, it’s the best work you’ll ever do.
Robin Sharma
Light after the night.
After deep pain arrives a great blessing
After heavy rain appears the rainbow
In toughest moments arrives a breakthrough
Through the biggest wave shines through a light.
The longest night awakens with the hope of new dawn.
The longest tunnel opens to beams of sunlight
In deepest silence may be hidden utmost reverence.
In deepest gratitude lies a heartfelt prayer
What is visible may be an illusion
What is invisible may be the truth!

Life and Living
Life is in the living.
Sharing a beautiful message from this incident.
Nearby, a building construction work was going on.
Lots of poor labourers were working there and their small children used to hold on to one another’s shirt and play “train-train”.
Someone would become the engine and others would become bogies.
Every day, these children used to take turns becoming the engine and bogies.
But, there was one small boy wearing only a half pant who used to hold one small green *cloth* in his hand and become the guard daily.
So, once I went to him and asked him ..”son, don’t u also wish to become an engine or a bogie some time?”
He softly replied, “Sir , I don’t have a shirt to wear so how will the other children catch me to make the train?
I could see the slight wetness in his eyes.
But, it gave me a lesson…. he could have cried and sat at home and abused his parents for not affording to buy him a shirt.
But instead, he chose another way to play and enjoy himself..
In life, we don’t get all things we desire and we keep complaining ..
I dont have a bike, I don’t have car , I don’t have this or that etc…
Life is like that ….we need to make it beautiful and be grateful for what we have ..🙏🏼
*HAVE AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE*
Life is in the way we see it!

The way we say it…
Communication is a two way street
On speaking the listener hears
Interprets and responds
But often words used can mar the flow,
Of the conversation in no time .
Especially so when communicating with children and teenagers.
A few things to take into account…
Speak as you would like to be spoken to
Speak clearly with confidence & certainty
Speak to convey the message than try to control.
Speak using positively affirming words.
Speak politely and avoid sarcasm.
Speak with empathy and avoid criticism.
A child hears and understands the tone of your voice well.
Keep it balanced as far as possible
Use it well to convey the messsge without yelling.
And most of all
Speak with words that appreciate than admonish.
Makes all the difference.

On Dancing…
‘To dance is to be able to glide as if you are as light as the air and soar in grace, as you feel the wind enveloping yet beckoning you to scale new heights of harmonious effusion’.
