Stay calm
Don’t lose cool
Have no expectations
Let go… Move on
Easy to advise Difficult to practice Telling truth as it is
Such is the irony of advice.

If trees could talk
If trees could talk
Think what all they would share.
For trees are all about sharing
They share their all
And even their shade with us
But if trees begin to share
Their woes with us
They will have stories
From eons ago
Of human need and greed
Of rearing them
To leaving them barren
To be axed someday
Think, if trees could talk
Humans will have no where to hide
Their demonic acts of chopping them down
In the name of development
The world needs it’s green cover more than ever
Our forests need us to talk for them
And take it upon ourselves to nurture these trees .

You Beyond Fear
Often expectations become a burden.
For it gets imposed without realization.
Creating fear for change
Fear chains you in restrictions
Learn to unshackle your being.
You have one life
Think of life like a new book
That is meant to be written by you
Make sure you hold the pen
And do not give it away
Live beyond your fear
For life is what you make of it.

A tiny seed
A tiny seed is inspirational
To push past the mighty earth
And assert itself in this world
Bearing abundant fruits
Blossom with beautiful flowers
And thrive into a towering tree…
All happens well in faith.

Light & Dark
Between the light and dark
Is a dance of hope
Hope that sings and brings trust
In the darkest days
And lightless nights.

Haste makes waste
There is always time
Time never is lack
Lack of patience
Is lack of time management
In lack of time
There is hurry
To make things happen fast.
Without deliberation
Confusion and tension sets in
Building up pressure
Creating doubts & distress
In the lack of coordination
A recipe for hasty decisions
Creating more waste
Of time, energy and resources
Along the way.
So think through
Haste not waste not.

Humanity
On leadership.
Poignant truths to remember for all leaders
You are human and not a machine and so is your team.
You are here to lead, not here to be liked by all.
You will also make mistakes, and that is how you learn
You will adapt as you cannot control everything, some things are unavoidable and sooner you acknowledge it the better.
You will be challenged by a few in inexplicable ways , but these experiences will empower you.
Your teams will outgrow you in time, even if you have invested your all in them .
You will learn how to sustain in the letting go , that is the way of evolving with change.
And most of all the higher you climb the lonelier you will feel.
Be prepared to manage it.
Self Healing
Head to toe
Toe to head
Breathe it out
Let it go..
Heal overwhelm
Heal overthinking
Heal your heart
Heal yourself
In the mixed bag of lides emotions
Some get felt a little too deeply
Embedding itself into the psyche.
And affecting thoughts & actions
Emotions too need release
Unshackle to let go and free up
Cut the cord of emotions
Before they overwhelm you.
Find some time to breathe it out
To process and reflect & let go
To exhale the unwanted emotions.
And heal your heart .

Regeneration time
Feeling peaceful
What makes me feel peaceful ?
Just spending time with our little furball combing his long coat every other day makes me feel peaceful.
A little moment every now and then writing my thoughts down feels peaceful
Spending time alone witnessing the stillness of the breath or practicing Qi Gong in the garden with green trees for company makes me feel peaceful.
Meditative moments especially at home in front a Buddha statue makes me feel peaceful.
Painting and dancing without an agenda, on my own, whenever I wish to, makes me feel peaceful.
But most of all…
Living in the now, without too many expectations makes me peaceful ✌️
What makes you feel peaceful?

What do you see?
What’s the first thing that comes to mind?
Is it the nature of the land?
Do you sense the sandstorm?
Do you see the vivid colours of the womens clothes juxtaposed against the barren land?
Do you see them huddle together taking refuge with no where to go?
This picture evokes emotions.
The wind, the women
Heads to toe covered
Yet braving the sun barefoot
The sand across the land
The parched dry pots.
What else do you see?

One positive thought
All it takes is one positive thought
That manages to linger & survive
To drive away negative thoughts.
So think positive and thrive.

Awaken
You awaken
When you are ready to release
That which holds you back.
In acknowledging
Is the allowing
Of new possibilities
And sense the light within.
Every once in a while
It’s good to unshackle
Simply ask your self
What am I holding back?

Let the seasons be…
If a day could be wrapped in a minute
If a year could be tucked in a season
Life would happen too fast
With no time to simply be
Life would be one rushed affair
Wish nothing in a hurry
Let the days be, to dare
Let the nights be to rest anew
Let the flowers bloom in hope
And let the leaves rustle in the wind
Let the seasons come by
All in good time
For you and for me.
