Sit down with your feelings
Like a good friend
Listen to it to understand
What it conveys to you
It works out for you.
Your emotions are not your enemy
They are your vent
They are your support systems
For the body to feel at ease
Be a good friend to you
And your emotions will thank you
As you thank them.

If a day could be wrapped in a minute
If a year could be tucked in a season
Life would happen too fast
With no time to simply be
Life would be one rushed affair
Wish nothing in a hurry
Let the days be, to dare
Let the nights be to rest anew
Let the flowers bloom in hope
And let the leaves rustle in the wind
Let the seasons come by
All in good time
For you and for me.

Life hands many a tough lessons in our journeys. But to strive to be strong and tread through it all, not just by surviving the ordeals but thriving takes inner strength in conviction. It helps to focus on your sense of purpose if you have deciphered it by now, else take each moment as momentary. Know the pain you feel in this now will be gone in the next. This attitude takes you on a spiritual path of letting go. It makes a profound impact in life as you continue to practise regularly. Regardless of outcomes you are thriving…in Gratitude for the lessons from life in the living.🙏

Winning at the Paralympics is no mean feat. I wonder why it gets second hand treatment and less attention in media compared to Olympics. Came across this news about a gold in mens badminton, it’s a proud moment for India no doubt.
And am in appreciation for the perseverance of these spirited warriors of sportsmanship. A testement to what the body achieves when the mind believes. May the spirit of sports shine through
Hope there is more support for every sport and sportsmen and here’s to celebrating them and their unwavering dedication to touch the pinnacle of success no matter the odds.
With much hope on the anvil this year India has sent its largest contingent to compared to Tokyo 2020 where India found much success
And today I read…
India Shatters Its All-Time Paralympics Record, Medal Tally Swells To 20 https://sports.ndtv.com/paralympic-games-2024/india-shatters-its-all-time-paralympics-record-medal-tally-swells-to-20-6484764
Isn’t it high time to celebrate sports without discrimination across the world. What say?
Let love live
Not just in your smile
In your heart
In your eyes
In your bones
Allow it to reside
In every cell of your being
Make it your life long friend
And see the magic unfold

I wrote this poem back in time after an unexpected opportunity to travel set me off across exploring unforgettable places and spaces on my own.
Yesterday as I was conversing with one of my earlier dance student and friend now, he somehow reminded me of this poem again , as he has been traveling the length and breadth of India on a bike, covering over 80% of India.
While I wait to see his photo shares and hear more from him about his experience in the journey.
Thought of sharing my verses again.
Travel On
If you are given an opportunity to take a journey
Take it, for you meet many versions of you.
Along the road.
Some you cherish, some cherish you.
Some that change you and some that you change.
Fear not the travel or the traveling…
For one thing is certain
You come away enriched and wiser in every journey.
Travel to liberate yourself
From self assumed notions
To see the light on the other side
There is much to unlearn and unbox
As you travel yield in to the insights
Travel every once in a while if opportunity arises,
Take the chance,
You are richer in your explorations much as your experiences.
Travel on …

In the depths of darkness
Keep the faith on a new dawn
In the numerous wrongs
See the rights
Thank the good
Be grateful for it
Make it a practice of a life time
Know you’re in a better space.

What was freshness of springtime
Matures with the changing seasons
At times hot dry or humid summers makes life unbearable
Soon the downpour of rains flood the parched land with greens
Another autumn as orange rust leaves renew themselves
Winter chills brings it’s own white snow at will
Trees bereft of leaves lay bare their dark branches
Awaiting for another change of season.
And life goes on…

Calm eyes and ears
Resting and recovering
From relentless chaos
Blowing in the wind.
Seeing only a trickle
Of light and sounds
Of nature in harmony
To energize in hope
Once more.

Life is changing
Every minute
Life is never the same
Its ok to wait and lie a little low
You need to trust nature
To move and shift things
What was lost is gained again
What was your deepest pain
Becomes a point of pleasure.
Change is the only constant
My friend
Move beyond these limitations
Of this now
There is so much more to envision
So much more to accomplish.
Life is meant to flow!

It’s the way of love, to accept and allow
It’s the way of love, to empower with hope
It’s the way of love, to sense the light of life.
It’s the way of love, to share from the heart.
For love is the gift of life.
And it’s the way of love, to be filled with gratitude.

Acknowledge…
Betwixt and between
The you & I,
The us and the we,
Is a ocean of multiverses.
A tapestry of metaverses Springing into existence
Creating connection
Beyond compare
Ingenious innovation
Reaching beyond the known
Forging ahead dimensions
Unfolding technology
With palpable sensations
Creating new possibilities
Exploring potential
Understanding elements
Of space, time and distance
Challenging norms
Quantifying needs & wants
Finding solutions
In a changing world
Simplifying complexities
In the realms of life & living.
Yet as this booming bubbles
Is it a catalyst of changes?
Some sensational and brilliant
Some scary & confounding.
Simply know it’s on its way
And is here to stay
As our world will redefine
Life beyond existence…
Accept…
There is bound to be a boom
Colloidal chaos & confusion
In chasing an unreal world
And finding hope to live on
In the very illusions in making.
Know…
Every thing life appears now
Is a momentary phenomenon.
Of perceptions that deliver
The solutions for life in the soul.

In the darkest hours
Stay strong in spirit
Sense the light within
Trust the light in you
To keep you hopeful
To see the light of dawn.

Every night sky
Infinite stars twinkle
There is wisdom in their light
‘To shine from wherever you are’
Each star emits their own starlight
Without trying to outshine others
Together they fill up the night sky
With the wonders of a starry night.
