It is actually simpler to be yourself. There is something that each of us can do better than any other.
So its important then to listen to the inner voice and bravely obey that.

Game of Life…
Nicely penned by someone……
I watched a local football match in a school playing ground.
As I sat down, I asked one of the boys what the score was.
With a smile, he replied; they are leading us 3-0.
And I said, REALLY.
I have to say you don’t look discouraged.
“Discouraged” the boy asked with a puzzled look.
Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle.
I have confidence in the team and the managers; we shall definitely overcome.
Truly, the match ended 5-4 in favor of the boy’s team.
He waved at me gently, with a beautiful smile as he left; I was amazed, mouth wide open; Such confidence; Such beautiful faith.
As I got back home that night, his question kept coming back to me –
…..
Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle.
Life is like a game….
Why be discouraged, when there is still life.
Why be discouraged when your final whistle has not sounded.
The truth is that many people blow the final whistle themselves….
But as long as there is life, nothing is impossible and it is never too late for you.
Half time is not full time…..
Don’t blow the whistle yourself…..😊

Are you your own friend?
A true friend is there to support you if you fall.
Allow space for you to grow
Cheer you along the way
Take interest in your journey
Mean well for you
Stop you from self harm
Believe in you without a doubt
Yet dare to tell the truth to you.
Be with you so you are never alone.
Now think about it…
Are you your own best friend ?

Train of thoughts
We are filled with countless thoughts
Every waking moment of life
Even more so when we are alone
What we do with those thoughts
Is what matters.
How dense are those thoughts
How much vividity & how much lightness….
This is what decides
The course of life itself.
Its all interconnected
Where the train of thoughts lead us.
Choose to think well.

Strength in Vulnerability
We are nature and nature is us .
We are all made of star dust.
We all have our moments in the sun.
We all have our dark moments.
Its not easy for any one of us.
We need not profess to be…
Something we are not.
We need not behave as if we know it all.
Our life is created in every now.
We can alter the way we see life.
And how we choose to live it.
Our attitude is a game changer.
If we allow ourselves to be…
We would bare the truth of our being.
Yes we may be vulnerable.
But in that very vulnerability,
We will find our inner strength.
For truth is liberating in nature.

Garden of life
The heart feels
The mind thinks
And generates a seed of thought
But the heart is all encompassing
In the core of the heart
Is the garden of life.
The heart is all pervasive
The heart is willingness
It accepts the seeds of thoughts
It colours it with emotion
Sometimes in all its vividity
In the brightest of tints
Or at times in shadowing tones
Between the dark and light of life
The heart nurtures and nourishes
Thoughts seeds to life.
In positively enriching thoughts
It empowers life to evolve .
What truly matters is..
To plant a positive seed in your heart
Allow the mind to help the heart
Discard the unwanted,
Weed out the unnecessary
Trim the excess growth
Support the saplings of goodwill
Balancing between the heart & mind
Every moment of awareness
Can change the course of life!

Are you too busy?
The art of giving time and attention…
Is worth mastering to have any
successful relationship.
Nothing worth having can ever be rushed.
What do you think?

Company Matters
In the journey of life
We cross many on our path
Some we travel along with
Some we let go
Some we strive to keep up with
Some we want to catch up
Some we want to be with
The company we keep, we become
While the destination takes care of itself
What makes life worth living
Are the ones who we connect with in our lives.
Good company is worth holding on to
Good friends are a gift of grace.
Gratitude for the good company

Reality Bites
Acknowledgement is a step towards improvement.
Realizing the effects and the cause is relevant to change.
Our world is a gift we have in life
We are interweaved in this tapestry of life and living.
And we are strengthened in the interconnects in between.
Yet we have distanced ourselves
The advancements create gadgets of convenience
But humane care and connection is distanced
We behave as if we are entities self centric without consideration
Humanity in humans is deeply affected
But we are yet to understand
The consequences our actions
Truth is reality bites.
Yet hope is here to stay.

Revolve & evolve
The world may seem to revolve around you
But you revolve along with the world.
So to be in balance is to take a hold
Of the space you are in
To find your bearing, before you react.
To optimize your response
Begin to understand and discern
Where another is in space, in thoughts
In actions and deeds.
To listen actively
To empathize with their needs and wants…
To be able to see the ‘Us beyond the I’
To shift the ‘Me to the We’
This is what will truly help
Us to understand where we are.
Life is like that,
Its meant to evolve and grow
Along in the flow!

Making peace with the now
On letting go ….
Making peace with the now,
Very easy, they say.
Follow the breath,
And peace flows.
Yet…
We all know
That it is quite a task
To be consistent.
That’s how life is!
Such is truth in itself
In this now
As every moment
Gives in to the new.
We are meant to be,
To learn and unlearn.
Our senses,
Our emotions
Challenge us in the changes.
Our system takes a toll;
Our beliefs turn around
In soul searching ways…
And then, we learn to see
The moment as it presents itself.
All judgements and assumptions,
All prejudices and preconceived notions
Fade away into the oblivion.
We live in this moment.
In engagement again
But with this now,
Without forgetting what has gone
But forgiving times bygone.
For only then, we make space,
For peace to flow in…

Dancing Lights!
I was a little kid when I first came across this beautiful word Aurora …and then I read about the Polar Lights and was truly fascinated.
Back then I read as much as I could find in books before the age of the internet.
For many of us so far away from the poles this is often impossible to imagine beyond a blue sky… let alone the dancing lights.
Resharing this poem which is a dedication to Nature’s dance in the sky… all in the depth of my awe & fascination.
Spectre of brilliance
An opera in the sky
A dance of dazzling lights
Of colours flashing through.
Luminescent beyond compare
Magical spectacle of brilliance in the flow
An undulating waltz in the yonder
An unveiling of earth’s myriad wonders.
Such an ethereal vision
Mystical northern lights
Unbelievable, unforgettable
Awesomeness beyond mere words.

Giving meaning to life
Life and living…
Every life has a purpose all its own.
Life is what you make of it.
Make it memorable
Make it meaningful
Live to sense the magic of life.

Breathe in Peace
Own your breath
Inhale the good
Let go the spurious
Anything that never matters
Is bound to bounce off.
What is necessary receive
With atmost regard.
Your breathe holds the key
Unlock the healing potential
As you breathe deeper
With all of your awareness
In every inhale and exhale.
Breathe in peace.
