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!

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.

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.

This one is for all my fellow writers & artists.
For I believe…
The ability to express or create art is a gift.
A Gift of Grace.
To respect the gift of creativity… is to express gratitude and use it in empowering ways.
To be able to express and convey is to be able to let go without doubts of disbelief.
To be ready and willing to share helps boost and spread the sense of self confidence and self worth…
Take time to appreciate the grace of your gift, as you make a difference in your own unique way!

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!

To life …. in all its dancing glory 🙂
To being all that one can be!
To changing & evolving for the better
To creating hope & possibilities
To exploring the seemingly impossible
To envisioning the capabilities
For life is best lived in expression
Of all that one can be!
So yes to life and living!

A Sufi Tale:
A merchant from Baghdad entered a Sufi’s shop, which had essence jars on the shelves.
Marveling at the beauty of the place, he asked, “Sir, what is sold here?”
The Sufi replied, “The gifts of God”.
The merchant was surprised with the answer, & asked, “And how much do they cost?”
“Nothing, here all is for free”, said the Sufi, observing carefully, that the traveller could see the labels: “Jugs of Love”; “Jars of Faith”; “Packages of Hope”.
The merchant said, “A big jug of love, all the packages of hope & three jars of faith for me, my friends & my family”.
The Sufi carefully prepared the order & handed him a small box.
Surprised, the merchant exclaimed, “But, but…. how can everything I have asked for, be in this tiny box?”
Smiling, the Sufi replied, “In God’s store, we do not sell fruits, only seeds. You have to sow them.

When what you say
And what you do
Are congruent
The effect of your words & deeds
Radiates all around you in resonance.
It’s no wonder then that
In a world that seems so dissonant
Words and deeds need to synch.
In harmony of such synchrony
Faith and trust meet belief
And that’s what makes all the difference.

Perfect pollinators
Supporting the ecosystems
From wild flowers to food crops
For Interconnections run deep
With the plant and animal kingdom
As much as with all of life and living.
Its said, if bees become extinct as a species
We humans will cease to be, in just four years
They not only produce the nectar of life
Bees sustain the delicate balance
Of the environment of our world.

Whenever I come across a heart touching action, or a prose ,a poem or quote I will be sharing it here in this series…
Some people make the world a better place by their thoughts words and deeds...
When the sport turns to a dance…
When the feet move in a rhythm
All its own, in uniqueness
Artistry is acknowledged.
An Inspiring life
Friends
See, Brazil’s under 17 footbal coach Amadeu Carlos who is “just” 76 years old.
This is called Brazilian football magic…
He proves “Age is just number.”
Amazing skill, energy and stamina.
This above information is social media forward, yet when decided, I wanted to learn more about him. I found that his age is misconstrued.Yet whatever the age, age is just a number, his skill is clear to see and that’s what is beautiful to see.
Here is a (wiki ) snapshot of his life and living.
Carlos Amadeu Nascimento Lemos was a Brazilian footballer and manager who played as a left back. He represented Bahia as a player before injury curtailed his career. He went on to have a managerial career which spanned almost thirty years.
This is how he sums up his country and its relationship with their favorite sport….“In Brazil when a child is born, the first gift for him is a ball. Our relationship with football is huge. We are a footballing nation and we like that”

Life can challenge us in the living
Each moment can throw us into a maze
That we need to go figure for ourselves
Personally speaking…
I turn to self reflection and solitude walking in contemplative introspection, when I need to rebalance and align myself , as in doing so I am able to understand and reconsider how difficult it has been, given the circumstances and I comfort myself by acknowledging that I have done my best.
I am grateful for this ability to write and paint my heart away, and express myself through arts, just as much as being kinder and compassionate with myself. For in every such moment, I am learning to be a better me.
I also find great solace in meditative movements and soulful dancing that help me bounce back to normalcy.
In difficult times what keeps you sane?

Night is a time of regeneration
In acknowledgement of a pause
Of the need for rest and recovery
As the day blesses us with a night
Own the time to sense the rejuvenation
Slip into bliss of sleep,
In the oblivion of darkness
That slowly descends on us all
Just be , knowing the night gives in to dawn
In a few hours more…
Be wise to unwind and unshackle.
Touch base with your soulspace
Refresh your entire being
To look forward and greet dawn again in hope

There is dance
In every leaf and flower
In every bud and bloom
In every twig and tree
In every turn and twist
Of nature’s creation.
There is the grace of uniqueness
Of wisdom beyond compare
All knowing, all pervading
To this Omnipresence …
I bow in Gratitude to this Grace.🙏
