Every skill can be taught and learned
But the truth of being is in our ways.
To be authentic to ourselves
To have and live with integrity
To be compassionate & care
To be kind and considerate
Most of all to be true to yourself…
Be a good human
And be humane.
You will find the best version of you!

No matter what paths life takes you
No matter the circumstances you are in
No matter how tedious the journey
It’s all in you, and the attitude you have
And choose to cultivate in time
Life can challenge or you can change
Your way of seeing life
You can create joy or sorrow
As you choose to see life.
As you wish to live life
It’s all in you!

Beyond the sum of our senses
Exists a field of potential,
Embodying possibilities.
Beyond fear and doubts
Exists a space for courage,
Emitting energy in hope and faith.
Myriad thoughts may fill our minds;
All is an illusion in the imagination.
If we wish to see it so,
There is always more
Beyond the dark; envisage the light
Unlearn the lessons taught,
Invoke the curiosity of your inner child,
Step back and see the bigger picture.
Rays of light will find their way!

If Creativity were to be all yang
Flowing along in infinite abundance
The mystic of this mistress is magnetic
Almost hovering on the hypnotic
And yet…
Creativity is a dance of balance
Of the yin and yang
Omnipresent in the flow.
In the unforgiving toughness
Is the challenge to continue
In her demands to deliver
Is the discipline of approach
In the chiding of the critiques
Is the attempt to evolve
Beyond the punishing schedules.
And in that trusting knowing
Actors act, sculptors sculpt
Writers write, painters paint
Singers sing, dancers dance
Finding purpose in the passion
In the artistry of creativity.
And as art empowers in the connectivity
Life carries on…!

Sharing my swirl artwork called Vorticity. This I created with my some of favourite colors to suit the mood of the day!
Vorticity
In the core is the dynamics of the flow ,
Sense the spiralling fluidity
Of the momentum moving along in circles
In the whirling is the dance of energy.

From the architect of time, the source creator came a space of nothingness (akash)from space came matter (energy) from matter came movement (wind, air) from movement came fluidity (flow, water) from fluidity came existence from existence emanated the spirit of life (the breath of life, fire passion).
The elements existence are a guide in an acknowledgement of the interdependence. An awareness of interconnections in an acceptance that everything exists in the subtlety of balance.
The spirit of life and living is the bridge to our calling &purpose of being. As well as in the journey of the being. The path is and will be ours and yet not just ours.
Every move in time is interlinked in the bridge of time that we were, are and will be on. The bridge of time is in eternal cycle of motion. All matter constitutes one or more of the elements in different proportions.
While the mind of the matter perceives it in thoughts, the heart of the matter senses. Mindful thoughts and heartfelt feeling are both real and unreal all at the same time. And consciousness is the bridge of awareness between the extrinsic and the intrinsic, between the learning and the knowing.
And in this understanding is the realization whole and complete of all as it is .

On Balance & Imbalances
Balance..
Enables evenness
In distribution
Ensures equality in varied elements
Or even propelling proportionality.
Empowers a sense of steadiness.
Without lose of control
Balance is grace in movement
Balance is grace in stillness too
Balance is also about being in equipoise
In envisioning or even in the sensing
A state of equanimity in the being.
Where all is well.
Yet the irony of balance
Is the equilibrium is subjective
To the opposition to balance
In a state of unrest and uncertainties
Doubts and fear creep in unexpected
Creating imbalances in its own path
Little knowing the state of balance
Are the very reason for wellbeing.
Savvy
Every part of nature has a reason to be
Every plant a sign of possibilities
Every tree a symbol of purpose
Every bud symbol of hope in the blooming
Every bloom a sign of joyfulness of being.
Nature is abundance
With all colors shapes and patterns
If happiness is a colour of a flower
Which one would it be for you?
In this now would pick brightest of blues
Would not hesitate to pick the purples
Would also be inspired by golden yellows
What about you?
Savvy
Life is what you make of it!
It can be the way you choose it to be!
It is a reflection of your state of being.
Life is heaven or hell in this now
Truly beautiful or unbearable
All in the how you want to see it.
It’s not about perfection
For nobody’s perfect
Life & living can be perfectly Imperfect
Seek excellence if you must
Seek to be the best version of you!
And find the wonderful in today!

Life challenges us all in every moment

For life to truly thrive in wellbeing
Making this world a better place.

Whenever I come across a heart touching action, a prose ,a poem or an empowering story, I will be sharing it here in this series…
Some people make the world a hopeful place by their thoughts words and deeds…
Some people, tell it like it is without mincing anything.
And the truth in all its profound simplicity tugs your heartstrings…

This is the story of Cara Khan whose sense of spirit & adventure made her dare the seemingly impossible …
Cara E. Yar Khan is an international human rights advocate promoting the inclusion of people with disabilities within all facets of society.
Thank you my dear friend Ali Anani, for it was you who shared the above Ted talk link and suggested I share a few thoughts on her.
I dedicate these following verses to her daring spirit and dancing soul!
Life is
Inexplicable uncertainty in the now
Undefinable strength in the moment
Unimaginable challenges that arise
Infinite possibilities in the potential
Unstoppable hope in the living
Be it in strength or inspite of weakness
No matter the threats or unexpected opportunities
Life shapes and moulds in experience
Be it the desires, wants or needs
Life is a journey unto itself
Life is a circle in the living.
In salute to the very courageous Cara E. Yar Khan
Her inspirational life story is an epitome of the magic of living a bigger bolder and yet a purpose driven life,
In her I see the verve, and enthusiasm in pursuit of her Passions
and her drive towards her Purpose
as much as the Perseverance to attain it.
And when these 3 Ps combine, success is bound to manifest itself.
What matters is that she ignored what was preposterous and dared to dream.
Ignore the naysayers
You have one life
Live it well
Give it the best you have got!
Keep the faith in trust and self belief
Let go of illusions of less in assumptions
You have everything you need within you
In daring beyond doubts &fear
Living life lovingly!
Truly nothing is insurmountable
There is in you, the power
That manifests when you need it most
You may not know the strength
And capabilities that you are carrying.
But it is always there with you
Simply trust in yourself
To be there for you!
You are more than enough for you!
Savvy
Take a deep breath
To truly be able…
To Breathe in ease
feel the peace deep within.
Take not this breath for granted
Know the gift of grace in every breath.
Inhale and exhale
Sensing Gratitude in every breath

Imagination begins with thoughts
There is great power in imagination
Imagination can heal or hurt
Stemming from infinite abundance.
Imagination draws from nature & nurture.
In thinking out of the box
Raw & unstructured or uncontrollable
Resulting in unexpected creativity
Exploring potential possibilities.
Thoughts in a flow, forming patterns
Shapes moulding within a structure
Meandering like a river
Or bursting like a volcano
Uncontrollable & quite unexpectedly
Often chaotic and welling up the feelings.
Imagination seeks to find its own path
Much of imagination is forgotten soon
Or gets lost in translation.
When imagination is reinforced
In strength of inate potential of being
There is hope for inspirational creativity
When imagination is reigned
In fear and ridicule
There is chance of darkness of morbidity
Creating doubts and uncertainties.
Your Imagination is who you are
Imagination manifests through you
Yet in steering imagination
Creativity is born.
The source of thoughts arise from within
You have the choice to steer the course
In mindfulness the path of imagination
Can be witnessed and channeled.
The journey of imagination
Take you places you have never been.
Betwixt & beyond the illusions & reality
Through dimensions of time & space
To the quantum truths of your being
In expressing, exchanging imagination..
Innovations are possible.
The magic is all in the imagination
What matters is where you want to go!
