Dawn paints the day

An interesting  dawn

I woke up earlier than dawn today.

And positioned myself in my favorite space

To watch the glorious dawn

Before I could realise

A bright orange ball 

Just popped up over the horizon…

It was as if the sun was in a hurry

To awaken the world & light  the day.

As I just began to ease into the brilliance …

I saw the corner of the sun

Disappearing  into the blanket of clouds

Looming large, to dull the senses once more…

The light is hidden now

From plain sight.

Do know the sun is up 

There may be a lull in the now

But darkness is a passing cloud

Think of it, as moments to pause 

In patience for light is on the other side

Awaiting its turn to light up your day.

And yes, before I could pen these words here…

The light of dawn paints the day.

Who lifts you up?

Over the years

Living life teaches much.

Every person in your life

has an unique role to play.

Sometimes they are necessary for you

at times, you are necessary for them.

Life happens along the way,

leaving lessons fine.

Your emotional equation matters more than you think.

Choose to spend time with those who lift you up.

Those who bring cheer and smile to your face.

Choose your circle, its your right.

Choose wisely and you can be where you want to be…

You have one life.

Choose well…

Spirit of Freedom

An open pathway beckons you
Across the threshold

See the horizon of hope
In the warmth of day light

Take a step forward in trust
It holds much promise

Glide onto the green fields
Let your spirit soar

And sense the spirit of freedom
To be all that you can be..

River of time

How far have we come
From the many versions of ourselves
In this river of time
Where like water, that flows onwards
Time can never be visited backwards…
Only in memories
Held within the hearts & minds
Reminding us of the paths traveled in time.

Life continues to evolve in every now.

As life flows on …

Colouring  itself

Along the way.

I share this above digital artwork here from back in time…when AI  prompting and image creation was very nascent.

On Blooming 

Our thoughts need space to grow

Sitting in silence

Sensing stillness

Witnessing the dance within.

As the thoughts settle

From chaos to calm

Give time to your thoughts

Countless thoughts birth itself

Some that makes you smile

Some that carry other emotions

Your thoughts have a reason to be

Let them come and go 

Like nature evolves in time

Thoughts have a life time too.

Think well… Life blooms.

On blooming  

Cultivate in your children a thinking mind

Guide them to steer it to a thoughtful mind

Cultivate  in your children a grateful heart

Guide them to deeds of goodwill.

Their development begins with you 

But remember the bud that blossoms to a flower

Support their journey that unfolds itself …

As every flower unfurls in its own time

Trust life to bloom.

Love & Peace

As you go through daily life.

Just care to remind yourself

That you are being watched over

And cared for…

This simple habit will bring you immense peace.

And you will transmit universal love.

Peace be with you.

Umbrella of Grace

Magnanimous grace

Of the divine infinite,

Blessings flow in its presence.

In this ocean of abundance,

Stay still in the tremors.

Keep the faith

In every moment..

Let go of fear & worry.

Know you have the universe

Within, with & around you.

The Power of Calm

There is charisma in calm

It’s the power of calm

In life’s highs and lows.

In calm lies confidence

Invoking assurance

Being calm in a conversation

Evokes the energy of stillness

Emits vibrancy devoid of agitation.

In the calm there is depth of  awareness

In the center of calm

Is potential  to assimilate

No matter the chaos

You find equilibrium.

When was the last time you felt the charismatic power of calm?

What does calm feel like to you in this now?

What is the distance  between you and your sense of calm?

Where & how do you think you can find your calm?

The morning moments

My morning  moments have the preciousness of calm for me.I choose dawn to intend the calm for the day ahead. In the quiet moments of dawn where the world is still sleeping, I find my creative state of flow. Although I have been able to connect  with my calm through the day, the vibes of this part of the day resonate so much. The early morning  sets the tone of the day for me.

How do you relate to the calm of dawn?

How do you sense the power of calm?

Let’s nurture nature

Every bit of matter
In this now is integral
To the whole of existence
Every man made change
Changes our world
In more ways than one
For subtle shifts of energy
Can create massive  environmental phenomena
Altering the course of future.
Isn’t it time to recognize
The misses
Alter the errors
And pave the way
For a more responsible
Coexistence
Life is a gift
Let’s nurture nature.

Even a single step matters …

Let’s start with even one of  the three things we all can easily do…

1. Grow native plants  that survive and  thrive easily and create an ecosystem that will improve the biodiversity.

2. Save water  recycle waste water lets treat every drop of water as precious.

3. Water plants with water used for washing vegetables rice or lentils.
Then not a single drop of water will be wasted .

Truth of Nature

Rain

It is the nature of rain
To wash away the dust
Until it’s clean and green.
Yet, too much rain
Floods and destroys.
Such is the truth of nature.


Each element of nature
Is balanced with the other.
The dry lands help sustain the wetlands…
One supports another
To sustain and thrive.
Such is the truth of nature.


Desert


Desert sand blows in the wind…
Winds carry the dust
Across the world,
Over lands and water,
Finding new settlements.


The truth of nature
Is the interconnections.
The kind that keeps us alive,
The kind we may not realize,
The kind we need to emulate
In this now and for our future,
To survive and thrive.

Just think…

If nature survives through quiet reciprocity, perhaps our own survival depends on learning to receive what is given, and giving what is needed.

Todays freeverses are inspirations that arrived  from contemplations with Anjana, my dear mother.

Truth of love

The truth of love is acceptance…
The kind that is unconditional.
It asks not another
To change and fit a mold,
Nor expects you to compromise your values.


The truth of love is realization
Of your heart’s expansion,
And seeing the possibilities
Amidst life’s myriad challenges.


The truth of love is freedom
From control and suppression.
True love breathes free
And lives life lovingly.


In reflection…
Ultimately, love is not a destination or a demand; it is a quiet, daily momentum. It is the conscious choice to move through a complex world and simply live life lovingly.


Love is not a bond that ties us down, but an expansion that sets us free…

If love is an expansion rather than a bond, what is one unspoken demand you can release today to let your relationships breathe freer?

The inspiration for these verses in flow arrived in the moment I started  commenting on this interesting poem and its take on love.

Live life lovingly.

In & around

The more I explore

The mystique of  space

The more I am in touch

Of my ground of earth.

In mindfulness I root myself

So that my thoughts find stillness

The more I search afar

The closer I am home.

All is within

In and around

Reflections on Space

Thoughts on Space

Space is, what I make of it.


Space allows and restrains you all at the same time
In this and every now, space is filled with infinite possibilities.
Abundance and scarcity of potential is the truth in coexistence, shifting as you perceive space.
Space is a dynamic in the fluidity.


Space is what you make of it.


As what you sense in space, stays in space

So what happens in space stays in space.

Space is filled with wonder.
An expansive phenomena.


Feeling of space for you and I is deeply different.


Is there a divide at all between the physics and metaphysical space or is it actually interweaved & deeply interconnected.


Just a question of how open we are to understanding Space & the possibilities in its potential…
Its all in around and beyond there.

Timeless

Imagine a space

Of freedom from time

Where there is no rut of routine

Where the heart speaks

And you listen.

Where moments are lived

And life is not just existence.

Imagine a place of timeless wonder

Of obliviousness and abandon

Where freedom is in your spirit

And your life, a living verse.

What would you do with the day

If you find such a place on earth?

The River Within

There is a river within

That is flowing

On its own path

Coursing through the veins

Drawing from the souls well.

The well of the infinite

Unfolds many a paths

For the river to take

The river chooses its way

To flow on…

There is strength of the flow

In the movements

In the flexibility

In the adaptability

In supporting the body.

There is a journey onwards

Towards acknowledging

The purpose of the flow

The river perseveres

Until the moment of fulfillment…

When the river meets the sea.

The above AI imagery  was prompted by me a while back in time… I just found a new interpretation to it today.
