To see positive changes
Focus on what is going right
Than all that is not.
For then you are refusing
The joys of this now.
Recognise the little things
That make you happy
As a daily practice
Acknowledge people
Who surround you.
Appreciate the little things.
For happiness resides
In the little things.
Today the softness of the light of dawn, gently warming my face as I woke up made me happy this morning.
Care to share the little things that make you happy?

True Joy of Happiness
Manifests in the sharing
For sharing is the springwell
Of joy.
True Joy in the happiness is beyond selfishness
In fact it invokes a share with one another.

An artist may give a shape to thoughts, its destiny is the result of the bubbles of thoughts in the connected flow.
Creativity is in each of us. We are blessed with much we are yet to understand.
Often we neglect the creative side in each of us and don’t find ourselves expressing it away, but tapping into it can open portals of yet unknown possibilities in each of us. And most of all gives us the courage to explore and embrace the unknown.

The path of compassion knows not separateness
Flowing in love of life in lightness
In the sparks of surging intuition
To be tender & move with compassion
Beyond mankind to all living being.
In the depths of compassion is an understanding
Of another soul in recognition
And sensing the joy and sorrows in reflections.
So join in to experience in embrace of compassion
Beyond intellect and reason and other egoistic delusions
Join the circle of conscious compassion.
Unite with single minded purpose of communion.
Share without fear or favour
All that you divinely revere
As every journey is a reunion
Of the spirit to another in Godliness .
The energy from such an authentic action
Creates oneness and peace
In and around us.
And a sense of belonging
To this vast wide world
Comes in the knowing
Of our owing to this
world and the beings around us.
We are not alone ever …
Works like a prayer…
For life to have meaning.

Every one faces difficult people in their lives. And for some like service sectors, coaches, consultants and medics, their job has many moments of handling difficult people and tricky situations as well.
There are many types of difficult people
Like the pessimistic ones who always find what won’t work first for anything new. They have nothing positive to say or share. But always play the devils advocate.
Handling them can be extremely difficult in front of a team full of people but it is wise to acknowledge them and then reframe their perspectives with a positive positioning and interpretation to turn it around carefully.
Interestingly there are a lot many in the know it all category, with an attitude & arrogance of knowledge & experience to boot.
An effective way to tackle would be to appreciate them but ask them to share the data and facts associated with what they proclaim to ensure authenticity. It is also challenging but necessary to request for humility in these peer to peer conversations.
There are then those who are two sided who say nothing to your face but are habitual complainers. There is a need to understand the origin of of their doubts and worries and where they are coming from in order to work it out thereby creating a safe and secure atmosphere.
“Think of difficult people as
sandpaper
They may rub you and scratch
you painfully but eventually
you end up smooth and the
sandpaper worn out… stay
happy and enjoy life…”
raymund salumbides
Difficult people are difficult to handle. But it’s not impossible or something to shy away from. Simply the handling needs discernment and care. And not everyone can handle difficult people. Tact, diplomacy, confidence, clarity of purpose and vision go a long way in handing difficult people and problems.

Every one wants to become
Someone, somewhere somehow.
But the truth is…
Becoming is not easy for many
But to able to just be…
Will lead the way forward.
For being, becomes.
Just be.

Why walk in shadows of dark
When light is just around the bend.
Walk in light
If you can’t see the light
Find the light in you.
Trust your inner light to show you the way.
Love the light that you actually are!

On Kindness
Kindle the kindness
It’s the springwell of love
For love is limitless
Kindness generates
Heartfelt abundance
From one to another
Creating magic in action
Be it in words thoughts or deeds.
That best portion of a man’s life, his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.
William Wordsworth
Leave imprints in kindness
Every word you say
Every where you go
Every act you do in kindness
Every tree you plant
Makes a difference
For it is busy saving the world.
Be kind stay kind
It’s possible.
Savvy
This world…
Needs no pity
That feels sorry
Nor sympathy
That feels pain.
For feeling sorry
Or sensing pain
Will not solve
The issues at hand.
What one life truly needs from another…
Is empathy
To understand and relate with one another.
And compassion
That cares to help heal.
Whenever wherever
the dialogue changes
From I feel sorry,
To I will help you
Because I care…
The world will be a better place.
For action speaks louder than words.
Savvy
We are strings of matter
Asserting ourselves in the giant spindle of time.
A string
Is meant to connect
It is also to be a bridge of bonding
Like a string of pearls
To string is to align with a purpose.
We are divinely connected in the subtler realms
To the infinite strings of matter.
Yet in the physical realm
We hold the strings to many
We pull these strings at times too lightly or forcefully
And what was meant to be for alignment , instead creates imbalances.
The strings we hold or latch onto
The strings that are passed into our hands
And the strings we want to control
All have a deep significance to the way we were are, we are and what our future will be…
Care to acknowledge our stringed existence in the interconnects.
Aspire to untangle the threads yet value the rootedness therein.
Aim to reach beyond the shackles of being
Unlearn to learn
Reach beyond knowing.
Life heals as its aligns and manifests the truth of its own potential.
Savvy
Words are mere words
Trying to justify the senses
A tool for expression
Language has its own limitations
And what to speak of love
For love is limitless
In its depth of feeling
Expansive in its reaching
Far beyond words in the knowing.
Language of love
Is best spoken sensed
From one heart to another
And what to speak of mother’s love
Unconditional in its flow
Sensed and known without a word
A bliss in the bless.
Pure and precious.
Savvy
There is great power
In being yourself
You will know
You are enough
To be all that you are
Be you
That’s what u are meant to be
When you arrive at being comfortable being yourself,and in front of others, your gifts will shine through and you will make a positive impact on this world.
All it takes is being the authentic you!
Savvy
On Letting go
If you are feeling upset
Let time pass
Hurts will heal again
If you are angry
Let there be pauses
Anger will recede in the silence
If you are defeated
Let yourself know
That the world is a circle
The night breaks into a new dawn
With promises of a blessed new day!
So stay patient in perseverance
And know every phase has a reason to be
Learn to forgive and let go
And as all is meant to be well once again.
Writing is often a very cathartic experience.
Sometimes people unknowningly say things that hurt or upset another.
Today was one of those days. I chanced upon one of my old poems on letting go in forgiveness and it made much sense. I was able to move beyond simply by acknowledging the truth in those verses.
I simply had to share…
Savvy
A great share to remind yourself to check your current state of being. .
If only happiness can be summed up…
How easy it would seem!
But happiness can be elusive
When summoned it is often fleeting
But being able to take stock of your being
Will keep you aware
Of how much happiness is an inside job…
