That best portion of a man’s life, his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love. William Wordsworth
On Giving
Give the good you have Every time before the ask Consciously consistently Every time you do You create space within For more good to find its way in
In reality Giving from all of you Is much easier done than said For all you need is to be you Giving with all your heart Making it a regular practice Sensing true freedom in spirit Aligning you with the Universe A little more in every deed.
There are always special moments in every one’s life Making life meaningful and memorable Often it’s pure serendipity… When your memory jogs you to remember such a moment.
What makes the memory strong? What you are associating it with, That is what makes the memory stronger.
Next time pay attention to whatever you want to remember. What emotions and feelings can you associate with it? As your visualisation gets stronger Your memory gets better and will fade lesser in time.
Now remember to visualise with vibrance. Choose as you please, Scents & fragrances of places Nature & friendships Colours of Emotions In all its vividity &feelings.
Soon you will build on all the happy times. Keep adding your treasure chest of memorable moments.
Someone asked me what spiritual growth means to me …
Here is what I spoke about in a nutshell
Harmony in mind body & spirit Integration in Self awareness Developing greater understanding & Empathy Humility & Kindness Humanity & Compassion.
Living in the lightness of being Acknowledging Grace in Gratitude Sensing true freedom to be…for the self and others. To flow with life in serenity. Sensing the joy in the ordinary.
It’s about acknowledging & sensing the space in around me
It’s about giving in the receiving and receiving in the giving
Witnessing the evolving patterns and freeing the self from limitations of the mind.
Evolving in the learnings, valuing the connection built in time. A mindful & heartful practice in conscious awareness. Letting go of unnecessary things Understanding the value Of the gift of life Making life meaningful. Living life lovingly!
And in knowing it’s so much more….
Please feel free to add what spiritual growth means to you?
To travel Can be about discovery Of the old in the new places Leading you to pathways That takes you back to your self
To travel Can be a sensing of serendipity. A feeling of dejavue A memorable journey Unexpectedly unto yourself.
To travel Can be to witness The stark reality of life Perhaps a jolt of reality Of places and people As they are in comparison to what was once imagination.
To travel Can be to learn and unlearn To connect us to this now With the truths of things In places we visit Know and unknown.
Keep traveling far and near to find yourself a little more every time.
Every day I write It’s been so for more than six years now I don’t plan on what to write I just put the words as they come But somehow from somewhere From deep within they flow Through me… And then one look at what I wrote I get the title immediately Many times the title comes first And I begin to write
And then I just happen to share with you all my readers Some of you engage with me all most daily
And I am so full of Gratitude for your presence here.
Thankful for your likes and comments You readers really make my day Especially when you leave a kind & thoughtful word. It’s truly special to see an old reader drop by chance and connect again It’s a wonderful feeling… When at the fag end of the day I sit to read your thoughts It makes me motivated to want to write some more.
Words are all I have To share with you I hope to share the best of them & I hope to read and learn from yours… And hope to stay connected With you in times to come For I believe to share is to learn some more…
Nowadays, I am finding there are lot of films produced on women empowerment in different languages. Perhaps this is what the public wants to watch. What is interesting to note is how well it resonates with our times.
I enjoy watching films that make you think and feel as much as I enjoy happy fun films
I just finished watching a new Hindi movie called Sukhee. It’s about a daring woman (Shilpa Shetty) who elopes and gets married to a man of her choice in her college days. In time she becomes a homemaker. But her husband over the years stops valuing her. She toils everyday at home but her daughter stops needing her. Her only desire is to go meet her friends and attend her school reunion after 20 years. But her husband does not want her to go.
Nevertheless she leaves them and goes to meet her school friends. She realises how much she has missed her old life and wants to stay back some more… But her husband gives her an ultimatum to come back now or never come back…
What decision she takes forms the rest of the story…
On Strength of Empowerment
We talk of strength and there are many strengths in the challenges Of Courage Of Resilience Of Tolerance Of Patience
Speaking of women, I want you to answer this following question.
Who is a strong empowered woman? The one who has the courage to get up and leave when she knows she is simply being used but not wanted? Or the one who stays and dares to change the equation?
Mother Nature’s Whispers of wisdom Is in and all around us.
Just care to look around. Just have little time to listen.
The drizzling rain , The gentle breeze, The spreading fragrance of blooming flowers. Soothing all those around. No discrimination. No differentiation.
The mountains touching the clouds, The trees that stand tall and high, All whispers That transcience is eternal here. Spring and autumn are just cycles . Be in equanimity In highs and lows.
The sun, the moon, the mighty ocean, All the elements of nature Just whisper Discipline, punctuality, Valuing boundaries in spite of immense power,
The bearing trees, The green fields. The flowing rivers The very earth we stand upon, All whispers Humility, Generosity, Patience, Selflessness, Nourishing, Nurturing.
The lessons are many. How many we carry?
For eons are these Timeless whispers. When will we have the time and patience To listen and learn. To practice and bow down.
As the threads of time ties us In a tapestry of weaves We make our choices We chance upon our paths Lighting it up, in our own unique ways…
Painting our dawns with hope And the dusks with dreams Brushing light of the rays & beams… Cherishing our moments in this now Colouring our dreams with intentions that matter Living loving Giving receiving We shape our lives… Acknowledging our thoughts Accepting our errors of judgements We all evolve in the tapestry of time
Embracing ourselves in self respect Embodying our faith in trust Unfurling our passions in time Unveiling our purpose on earth Until we find our truths of being.
I am better than yesterday… Because the Universe Trusts me to make a choice In free will I take my decisions I am responsible for my life I am choosing to be all I want to be To trust and flow In this now
I am making time for me To be self aware and familiar with my truths I am letting go of the unnecessary thoughts I am thinking better in this now
My self belief is that my day is going well And I am having magical day and am deeply grateful. And I continue to love life & am making the moments matter. I am better than yesterday!
These words above are deeply interlinked in the flow of thoughts that arose after I read a translation by my mother from a Tamil quote forwarded on Social media.
Interesting to note it is from a divorced husband after 10 years of realization.
‘Don’t show your pride before your wife. She came to you just believing in you Not your relatives.
My property My earnings My will Then who is she? What is the meaning of her life with you?
Can’t she have her dreams, her desires, to be fulfilled with you?
