Being Human
To all those who seek perfection in every little thing that they sometimes drive themselves and others crazy.
Ease in and let go for a bit, see others as they are , not as you want them to be.
We are all vulnerable beings.
We are humans after all, let us be supportive and celebrate the power of humanity to overcome challenges that appear along the way.
We are powerful in acknowledging our respective situation from where we are and working amicably towards finding resolutions.
After all besides every thing else,the world needs humanity to overcome the challenges of being human.
A leap of faith.
A leap of faith Is what makes life a life.
Take the chances
That you choose to let go.               Be intentional
So that life doesn slip away.
Take the chance
May be they turn out the best decision of your life.
They say opportunity does not knock twice..
So take a leap of faith.
So when you hear the calling of your heart & soul..
Trust you can and you can!

Making sense of it all
Chase not the bird
Attachment is the root cause of suffering.
If love is a bird
And the bird has chosen to fly
Chase not the bird
For the bird has already flown
When you encounter a love
That chooses to fly
Chase not that love
For it has left your presence
Detach yourself from it
And let it fly
And thank the bird
For the change that it brought…
It was meant for you
To clear space in and around you
To grow and evolve
And transform yourself.
For the better.

A time for you
Then & Now
Then and now
Then I had manicured hands
Fingers always maintained
With perfectly painted nails đź’…
Now I like them as they are
Functional and neatly cut.
Then I wore high heels
To make me feel more stylish
Now I have a style I call my own
High heels I no longer need or buy.
Then I was yet to experience life
Too sensitive to a fault…
Now I have come of my own
Upholding my health over stressors
Emboldened enough to stand by me.
And today, another solar cycle older
Wiser or not is left for you to say,
But this I know from living
Half way and more in life.
No matter the then & now
What is, is what matters.
In you, is what you need.
Life is what you make of it.
Every now is precious enough to fill it with gratitude.

Truths & facades
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
Learnings
Learning never ends
It grows new pathways
Awaiting your awareness
Discover the joy of learning
You will find your purpose.

Acknowledge
As humans we are always exploring and discovering possibilities. Sometimes we understand much in no time, and take the right steps, and at other times we mis the bus.
Acknowledge the wins & the misses.
Every step missed is brimming with a lesson.
If we choose to pay attention every failure teaches us something.
On where we want to be,
On how far we are, from where we want to go.
Question is are we ready to acknowledge failure as a part of the learning process?
Every success can be attributed to the many experiences that may have had many lessons and the effort taken to succeed.
And if there is propensity and determination to take the effort, there are many pathways that lead us beyond failure.
I like this saying by Mary Ash, I came across recently which presents a fresh perspective on failure.
‘For every failure, there’s an alternative course of action. You just have to find it. When you come to a roadblock, take a detour.’
Acknowledge where and how you are.
You will find your own path.

So you are angry?
So you are angry?
Now what?
Do you think it is helping you ?
For anger never helps
It only hurts .
Here are six things you can do for balancing your emotions and feeling better.
1.Become Aware that you are reacting than responding in your anger is the first step
2.Counting backwards from 20 to 1.
3. Removing yourself from the place you are feeling angry even for a short while by going for a short walk helps settle your emotions.
4. Switch words is a technique to use feeling oriented words to create powerful change of emotions with imagery to manage anger.
For example a positive word like Happy can evoke different feelings.
Or words like ‘take it easy ‘can evoke a sense of ease.
5. Better still is taking to chanting mantras, or hearing your favorite upbeat music , or even Journaling.
6. If nothing else imagining ocean tides in a flow and breathing deeply, in and out even for a few minutes eases the tense body & mind.
Remember to acknowledge your emotions as there is more harm in suppression. As you find healthy pathways to manage your anger, you bring wellbeing into your life
Live life lovinglyđź’™

Gifts of Life
Life pans out uniquely each day for us.
And yet every life has its ups & downs
It is how we see it
That makes us who we are.
In the journey of life
Life supports and encourages us
By offering many visible and hidden
Gifts along our paths.
Recognize  and value them
For they are meant for us.
It is up to us to become aware of it
For us to sense & know…
And most of all
Every life is a gift
Value the life
You have.

A calmer perspective
I have received this poem below through a social media forward.
And I think I needed to read it today.
It put many things in perspective.
You see, there have been some small and inexpensive things missing at home . We have two house helpers And I was not sure who is the culprit.
They have been with us for a while and I have senior parents who live at home so I was letting it go and keep calm, because it was easier as it was causing a lot of unnecessary confusion and doubt.
In the meantime two months ago I replaced one of them. And I had felt a sense of relief somehow. And today the other is about to go on leave for the customary annual holiday. It will mean a lot of work for me personally until I find a helper. Yet I have been feeling positive that better is happening and all is for a good reason. Sometimes we grin and bear for the fear of changing statesquo…
While I cannot get my lost things as I have no proof, I think I needed a calm perspective to help me find me a way…
While I do believe that we must take action on that which is within our control , these words touched a chord in me..
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice.
Meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.
Be grateful for whatever comes.
Because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
— Rumi
