Choose not to hurry to do something
Because it is the norm.
But choose to do,
When you are truly ready…
Your life is about memories
Money can’t buy you happiness.
How do you create your own joy?
Love yourself truly in this now.
Live life engagingly & love your life.
Your life, your choices
But if you are lucky
To sense and understand…
This life & everything as it is,
You are truly blessed
To have it so.
So be wise and choose well.

If you really want to educate your child
Practice empathy and encouragement
Show kindness and appreciation
Speak well of others
Listen well.
Have integrity
Be compassionate
Be humble
Be humane
Be genuine
Be honest
Be responsible
Be respectful

Whatever you do, your children learn
For they have their own mind
To think for themselves.
And they have their own path
To be themselves.

A person started to walk on a rope tied between two tall towers at several hundred feet above the ground. He is slowly walking balancing a long stick in his hands. He has his son sitting on his shoulders.
Everyone down were watching him in bated breath and were tensed. He slowly reached the second tower. Everyone clapped, whistled and welcomed him. They shook hands and took selfies.
He asked the crowd “do you all think I can walk back on the same rope now from this side to that side?”. The crowd shouted, “Yes, Yes, you can”. Do you trust me he asked? They said yes, yes we are ready to bet on you.
He said okay, can anyone of you sit on my shoulder; I will take you to the other side safely.
Everyone became quiet. There was stunned silence.
Belief is different. Trust is different. For Trust, you need total surrender.
This is what we are lacking towards God in today’s world.
We believe in God. But we don’t trust Him.
🙏
On Trusting…
Trust is a matter of letting go
Letting go is a matter of faith
Faith is a matter of feeling
Feeling is a matter of knowing
Knowing is a matter of awareness
Be aware in trustfulness.
And so it goes…

Cage not the heart of those who dream of the yonder
Beyond the clouds over the hills
Their spirit seeks to wander.
Across the horizon, their soul belongs
Seek not to hold them
For they are way ahead of you already
Too swift are their thoughts
Too far away are their hearts
Too distant are you from them already
Not for them, the mundane chores
Not for them, the worldly spoils
Not for them, the earthly desires
Not for them the meaningless wants
Seek not to find common ground
For they have moved on way back in time
Neither in dreams or in dare
Can there be a parallel
Seek not, as your paths are not meant to cross.
Let them go, as it is meant to be.
Savvy
Soak in the serenity of silence
You can create your own calm
Stay free from strain and stress
Sense the peace within.
Inspite of the reigning chaos
Whatever happens around you
Hold on to your inner sense of calm
The solution is within you to know
Sense the peace within.

True freedom begins…
In letting go the weights of assumptions
In moving away from false convictions
In steering clear of fear and worry
In making light of the density in wit.
In being able to pursue your path
In being able to be as you are and be who you truly are
In Freedom you are free to discover who you truly are.
Inspite of all the things that chains us
True freedom is being unshackled!
To be free from self doubts and fear.
True freedom is to respect another’s freedom as ones own.
True freedom is being able to breathe deeply and completely without interference.
Are you feeling truly free?
To be all that you are…

Happy Independence Day to all Indians all over the world!
Have you smiled from the heart?
Let the smile out from within!
Why not smile when you still can
At times its a tough life indeed!
But a heartfelt smile is such a treat
Be grateful for the smiles
In giving and receiving
Celebrate the power of a smile
Create positivity! Share a smile.😃

There is always something we can learn to do…
We can learn to be more understanding and empathetic.
We can learn to be caring and not controlling.
We can learn to love than be lackadaisical of another’s needs.
We can learn to be trustful.
We can learn to believe in evolving together.
We can learn to see the wisdom in the challenges.
We can learn to trade our fears for faith.
We can learn to stop those bullying another into submission.
We can learn to live and let live.
No one owns us and we certainly do not own another.

Choose to make a positive difference
Choose to give from your heart
Be a supporter in life for a cause
Choose to stand for something
Greater than your immediate self
Always be grateful & stay humble.
Not only will you be using your time well
You will begin to feel thankful
In the lightness of love
For the contented heart you will carry.
Will make your days feel at ease
Your burdens will lift and
You will feel like dancing in the breeze.
You will smile from the heart.
Choose a cause.

Giving is the movement where the heart speaks without hesitation and in the flow through deeds and words. There is a moment of a decision before the giving and it is in that moment that life can be propelled to evolve along with the patterns of thought.
There is a lot of lovely words focused on Giving and most are essentially on the ‘Give before the Take.’
However, I also have something to share here …Every giving may have its own reasons…
Some may be in an instinctive reaction like warming up of the heart due to mutual understanding either being in the wavelength of resonance at that moment.
Or it may be because it is in goodwill as you genuinely care to show your appreciation.
Another would be because of your own good nature where you cannot leave without a positive act of appreciation in response…. there may be so many million and more reasons for giving which is wonderful for the world at large.
Now the reasons for not giving may be personal and unique as well.
Like for instance when you feel you are being used for a purpose that is self-serving.
Often there is a certain energy, in the very act of giving and that is what leaves an imprint on us and decides our future course of action.
Like at times a particular person’s energy may overwhelm and exhaust you or may be too much to handle that giving more thought or attention to it would feel counterproductive.
Like when you feel stressed and overburdened in the complexities of life and living that you simply may have overlooked the fact that the giving action is truly way beyond the gift itself.
Like when you fail to understand the reasons for giving or think the giver has ulterior motives for that matter…you may just appreciate it out of politeness but steer clear of receiving further as its truly not in your best interest to receive such a gift. But whatever it is, Giving nurtures and nourishes the soul of both the giver and the receiver when the intention is positive.
Go Give More of Yourself
Cos You come from Abundance
Receive with thankfulness
For that fills your own being with Grace.

Saw this the other day… I don’t know who originally wrote it but it’s brilliant
”Every minute someone leaves this world behind.
We are all in “the line” without knowing it.
We never know how many people are before us.
We can not move to the back of the line.
We can not step out of the line.
We can not avoid the line.
So while we wait in line –
Make moments count.
Make priorities.
Make the time.
Make your gifts known.
Make a nobody feel like a somebody.
Make your voice heard.
Make the small things big.
Make someone smile.
Make the change.
Make love.
Make up.
Make peace.
Make sure to tell your people they are loved.
Make sure to have no regrets.
Make sure you are ready.”
What is life if not sensed with the tenderness of the heart
What is life if not sacrificed at the altar of love,
What is life if not moved from the depth of the soul.
What is life if not loved beyond the shackles of time.
What is life if not consumed sublime by the arrow of the heart
What is love if not coached into nature of life by the nurture of love …
What is life if not cleansed through tears of yearning.
What is love if not set aglow through the embers of passion
What is life if not basked in the warmth of love
What is life if not pining in the patience awaiting
As love conquers you it blesses you in the knowing.
Make not a mockery of love
Serenade love and allow it to speak truth
Love surfaces from the depth of emotions
To mend you and this world to a better place.
As true love is eternal
Free as bird in flights of oblivion
Travelling in the abandon
Of the wilderness of the spirit
Yet bonded in the boundless infinity
Endless love a gift of grace
Acknowledge this treasure
Blending two souls in one.
As a life loved is well lived… such a rare sight!
What a blessing it truly is….A love like that!

I love the power of these words.
So profoundly inspiring that I had to share.
“I choose gentleness…
Nothing is won by force.
I choose to be gentle.
If I raise my voice may it be only in praise.
If I clench my fist, may it be only in prayer.
If I make a demand, may it be only of myself.”
Max Lucado
Truly beautiful and I deeply appreciate the profound strength of gentleness.
Gentleness is strength of the being
Rendered with softness
It is the power of compassion
That cares to bring the truth
Correcting the tone with care
So that it is well received.
Gentle are bravehearts
Without violence.
A gentle soul intends in goodwill.
Gentleness is a way of life
The path of the gentle
May not be easy
Being gentle is a choice you make.

When the spirit delves into the soul
Seeking an understanding of the self
The emerging picture reflects the true nature of every being.
The turbulence and turmoils ,
The arrogance and attitudes
The anger and greed
The hatred and revenge
Clothed in ignorance ,
Accumulated over the eons,
Vanish without trace.
When it senses the real Truth,
The transience of Nature.
Maturity and wisdom teach
The lessons of life in experiences
Peace and tranquility
Harmony and health
Inner joy and oneness
Are all one seeks
Resonances in eternal time.
Why confine the self to notions that binds.
Trapped in soul cages.
Wiser to unshackle and be free when the way appears
Untangle the chains to fly free in the unlimited space.
Channel the evolving energy in more ways than one.
Develop humility, compassion & loving kindness.
Value the learning in the letting go
Realise the potency of your own Unlimited energy.
Sharing these above reflections which originated in a deep conversation with my own mother about life. These are her heartfelt musings. I simply reconstructed her thoughts with suitable pictures.
