Live Life Lovingly!

Meet me in the middle

This poem will resonate with those in strong relationships  that stands the test of time and yet may find themselves challenged and at crossroads with differences in thoughts and opinions. Pretty much most who have experienced life together will find themselves in such predicaments time and time again.

In relationships when you are unable to see eye to eye, where past misses surfaces or future  expectations sideline the precious present, perhaps this poem can be a reminder of how far you have traveled  together to reach here.

All is not lost just yet… if you could only meet in the middle. For the strongest relationships survive in empathic understanding of each other through the thick & thin.

Meet me in the middle,
With an open mind,
Set aside differences,
We’re the same kind…

Today we may be at crossroads
looking with a different lens
But our hearts beat as one
Like it used to, years ago.
The feelings just the same…

So dearest one, sense it all
Memories are meant
To be revisited in time.
Think of how far we have come
And meet me not in the past
Nor in the the future
But right here in the middle
Of this present now.

Every Decade Teaches

Every decade teaches …

At ten

Life is innocence

At twenty

Life is discovery

At thirty

Life is pursuit

At forty

Life is awareness

At fifty

Life is experiences

At sixty

Life is expansion

At seventy

Life is inclusion

At eighty

Life is  rememberence

At ninety

Life is grace

At hundred & plus

Life is a testament

Of a lifetime lived.

Yet life is in this now…

Live life lovingly.

PS : A simple take on life so far, and in witnessing life & the living  around me.  I know life cannot be summed up in a word and there is much I want to add for every  decade… moreover  some words I have described may be experienced earlier  or later.

So to each their own…

Inch closer

Whatever it is, the wisdom that changed you,

Will one day make you give away, what it taught you.

Your’ Personal Growth ‘lies in these moments of your receiving and giving.

For then you are evolving and  fine tuning yourself under the guidance  of divine intervention.

Trust your journey. 

Listen to intuitive self

As it speaks from the depth of  your souls calling and knowing.

And remember through it all, every step of the way, you are inching closer to your true purpose.

Un expect

In letting go of expectations

You step closer to yourself

Your truths are awaiting you

Everything around you

Is also in you

Everything in you

Is also around you.

Synchronize with your breath

Open yourself to sense

The immense possibilities

Allow insights to appear

On your wants & desires.

Enjoy every now of life

In this gift that is yours

Lies the path of salvation

Discover yourself

As the paths unfold.

Simply choose to unexpect

Stay patient and observe

Your strengths along the way

Learn from your experiences

Steer yourself to implement,

And apply it to a better life.

Reflections on Strength

Every morning in my  moments of gratitude, I reflect on the things that I could have some times taken for granted. It has become a consistent habit for many years now…

In these contemplations there is often much that emerges, sometimes what’s apparent is not what is, and sometimes  what is, is not all…

Today it was all about  strength, not the kind that makes you go on, to push further but actually the kind  that is gentle and quiet, I am talking of that which is often invisible.

What came up was …

That strength doesn’t have to proclaim
That strength is often that which is hidden in you
That surfaces in the storms
That strength too needs rest to recover and its ok
That strength is seen in the so called small ordinary moments of life in subtle ways
That strength needs no nudging but nurturing in gratitude, for it appears whenever in need as a force of nature.
That every one of your strengths and my strengths are valuable in our lives to make it whole and complete.

Gratitude to all spheres of  strength in need for its a strength in deed.

On Leadership

Simple is the way

To excellence in leadership

To lead without jargon

And cliched buzzwords

To lead is to practice consistency

In actions that evokes trust

To lead is not about being perfect 

But being human & accountable

To lead is to own the misses

And strive to turn it around

And better the self every day

To lead is to value commitment

And raise the bar of excellence

Growing personally  & professionally.

A blessed mindset

A blessed mindset

Think it, feel it, emote it

Sense it, move with it

Soon you make others feel it.

People sense confidence

In your voice and demeanor

They know there is purpose

And clarity in your ways.

Creating energy that elevates

As you embody you emanate

Without much hesitation

You attract abundance

In the blessed mindset

And aligned in gratitude.

You sense and create oneness.

When the world feels safe enough

I wonder

When the world  will feel safe enough…

To trust the day that is unfolding

To be assured there will be peace

To feel secure, wherever we are

Till then let’s keep breathing

And being present in the breath

And in hope all is well.

Seeding Wisdom

The seed bears wisdom untold

From humble beginnings

Emerges immense possibilities

What seems a non starter

Can be a gamechanger.

And yet…

Growth has many phases

In the course of its life

Through the ups & downs

The chaos gives way to clarity

From the immature to maturity

The tree stands tall

Embracing the changes .

The seed to a tree

Teaches the wisdom of patience,

As it bears fruits in time.

Living in rhythm

Our body is a field of energy

Feed it well

Move with the  energy

Make a choice

Eat with joy

With a purpose

To be aligned

To your best self.

Tune in to trust your being

And you will find yourself

Living in rhythm.

Irony of life

Love

Those who find love

Don’t bother to nurture it

Love starts losing value..

Children

Those who have many children

Find it challenging to rear them

And then there are those

Who ache for the blessing of a child

Health

Those who are in the pink of health

Take it for granted

And then there are those who want nothing more than the wealth of health.

Wealth

Those who have the means of wealth

Find no meaning  in it

And search for a meaningful life

And those who have no means

Are struggling to live each day.

Loss

Those who are grieving

Remember their lost companion

Those who have a partner

Forget there is one.

Despair

Those who are broken

Know the value of living 

To acknowledge the life.

In every moment.

Every life is different

Yet such is the irony of life 

That often life is lost in living it. 

And those who choose to live it lovingly and value the preciousness are truly rare…

On Managing Behaviour

Whether as a parent, a partner, a teacher, a manager or leader, we all come across challenges in behavior.

Here are few pointers…

Being  critical is easier

Being an example is what matters

To pave the path of positive change

Appreciate a deed well done

Behavior transforms in time.

All of you

Each day of life

Brings forth many moments

Like no two waves are the same

The good tidings of your life

Come and envelope you

When you least expect it

Surf them with joy

Know they come to you

As and when they are meant to

Be present in the moment

Enjoy them wholeheartedly

Bring all of you  to sense the good.
