You are given an opportunity to travel to beautiful locales on work or pleasure ,in a country so far away from your own Everything is wonderful and picturesque…
Yet, you are traveling along with people/ or paired with a person of completely different interests.
What if….
If you are a morning person and they are late risers
If you like walking and they like to rest more.
If you like to explore museums and art scenes and they have no interest in anything art
If you want to experience new culture by meeting new people and connecting with them than simply trying out food .
What if you want quick bites on the go and they like fancy dining experiences.
What if you want to start early and you are exasperated as they prefer late afternoon after a lazy lunch…
What if you are up and ready to go and they take a really long time to get ready 🤔
You like to capture experiences and rejoice in the memories and they have no particular interest in photography.
When you like to have a conversation freely and they are too busy or too silent, you often realise its better to remain silent unless spoken to even if there is company.
What would you do …
You make things right for you!
Let’s see, it’s not all that bad You are in a new location….
You realise its better to have some company than traveling alone in some places at least. You begin to appreciate the environment and yourself in it. You appreciate others who are around. You pay extra interest in people and places, the quirkiest, even the strangest and most peculiar things as much as the ordinary seem to matter somehow. You try to find happiness in whatever you see. You adapt to things as it comes. You accept everything, as your life’s myriad moments. You remember to focus on the positives acknowledge the good in them and move on…
Growth is a revelation To your own self So much of you Has outgrown the past The version of you That you would not relate In this now for life is changing As new versions of you Emerge in every moment You grow as you evolve.
Some places Make you want time to go slow So you can soak in the experience In every moment spent Or bask in the glory Of a delightful day Yet how can you stop time To sense the flutter of the now In the breeze in flow Or the shooting star Or take in a whiff of fragrance of flowerbeds Drifting in the wind.
Some places Makes you want to shout out And scream for a little more time With all of you sensing Just that one precious fleeting moment in time
Here’s to the believers The trusters and the hopeful ones For those who keep the hope alive in their hearts
They work to change the world for the better Practicing their arts & live their passion in purposeful ways.
It is through them values are practiced passed on and sustained. Power to the practitioners in knowing that there is always more… To learn unlearn and relearn.
For everything interconnects Keep the faith For faith is all there is. And without it nothing is.
How beautiful it would be If good deeds prevailed in practice. If altruistic ways can become a norm A way of life and living If healthy collaboration became a driving force. Yet… Any change is never easy
The key to the new pathways
Is already existing with you
You simply have to acknowledge allow and accept
For it to get activated…
And you can embark on the new road of opportunities your way.
To change anything It has to permeate the psyche Of the mind in acceptance. Then there is transformation. Nothing lasting happens by force For force gives way to another mightier force in time Trust time in patience & perseverance.
Everything happens in time. Time shows the way As time has all the answers.
