A little lightness of being
Takes you through the day
Dark moments turn lighter
Inject a dash of humor
When life feels too somber
Uplifting the moments…
So partake in a little levity of spirit
Its good for the soul .

Levity of spirit

The River Within
There is a river within
That is flowing
On its own path
Coursing through the veins
Drawing from the souls well.
The well of the infinite
Unfolds many a paths
For the river to take
The river chooses its way
To flow on…
There is strength of the flow
In the movements
In the flexibility
In the adaptability
In supporting the body.
There is a journey onwards
Towards acknowledging
The purpose of the flow
The river perseveres
Until the moment of fulfillment…
When the river meets the sea.

The above AI imagery was prompted by me a while back in time… I just found a new interpretation to it today.
It’s Possible
Light
A space of darkness
Is bound to beam with light
Clarity
A space of uncertainty
becomes a space of clarity.
Breath
In the inhale of purpose
Perseverance exhales with passion
Thoughts
In the racing of thoughts
A quiet mind finds itself.
Mind
A mind that allows itself to know
Can be inclusive in expansiveness.
Heart
A heart that wanders
Can be the heart that wonders
Of the yet unknown.
Flowing unbridled with spirit
It can find its anchor in time.
Peace
A place of great unrest
Is truly the place for peace.
To seed and nurture
And evolve the being.
Success
Success births itself
In every bud to a bloom.
In every new moment.

The choice is yours to take
Crossing over
Bridges of time
Beginning to end
Ending to begin again
In body spirit & souls
Infinite forms of expressions
Between betwixt & beyond
Bonding new & old
In part & whole
Tuning into the sounds
Of harmony & rhythm
Inexplicable joys
Of moments in movements
As paths are splayed
Across time to tide over
In every moment
The choice is yours to take.

As I
As I explore
I discover
As I perceive
I sense
As I pray
I ease
As I seek
I find
As I write
I express
As I sing
I channel
As I dance
I heal
As I read
I learn
I am eternally grateful
For all these learnings
That happen, all in good time.

Dignity of being
Its not pride. It’s dignity,
That you need with you.
Much is the difference between .
In no uncertain moment
Lose your sense of dignity.
For dignity is divine
For it embodies your spirit & soul
Pride is just a human emotion.
If ever you face a situation
Where anothers words & deeds
Leave you broken
Remember its just your pride & ego
That feels deflated in the moments.
It’s just a phase of life it will pass.
Your dignity stays with you
In the way you handle
With no loss of grace
Stay dignified, stay graceful.

As the seasons change
Stillness comes from movement
Movements birth in stillness.
Silence is pregnant with sound
Sound leaves silence space less.
Fear scares the living daylights out.
But the day overcomes the darkest night.
Tears drown in the smiles
As laughter dries the tears.
Joy fills the heart with happiness
Relieving the hollow of sorrow.
And just like the seasons
Every season has a reason to be
For life is all about change.
And change is the only constant.

Poets & Poetry
On power of words:
A slice of life
Poets may carve with words…
Emerging from life experiences
lived or observed.
Poets may offer fresh perspectives,
Embedded in words in a flow…
Sometimes the words may rush
On its own without hesitation
To express away with a purpose.
But often it is a channeling…
Of creating spaces between
To pause & empathize
Before the outpouring.
It invites you to ponder…
Words have profound power
In the way they are arranged
And the thoughtful poet knows
To convey the message home.
Yet , every poet is one of a kind
And so is their poetry
Every poet balances the flow uniquely…
On empathy:
In Poets, empathy makes you sense and relate with compassion,
It makes you feel one with another.
Yet the poet is strategic, as to be a poem the verses need to be well emoted as much as arranged, as words manage to touch another soul in inexplicable ways.
And what happens when empathy connects with poetry?
What are your thoughts on the above?

An unrealized dream…
An unrealized dream
An unexplored adventure
A challenging adversity
A twist of fortune
An unexpected detour
An unwanted influence
An undervalued feeling
A undermined self-esteem
A slew of slights
A spate of illness
A foreboding feeling
An unfinished business
An unforgivable mistake
An unfortunate moment
All may seem reason enough
But the reality is these are excuses
Remind your life happens.
Time is moving its course
Buck up and reset your path
For you know in your heart
You are enough for you.

Healing heart to heart
There is a dog somewhere nearby
That is barking every once in a while
It is not the usual bark and not a yelp either
But I feel it’s something not ok
Perhaps it is loneliness
A yearning for a companion
Or a little comfort & care.
My heart aches to hear it every day
And wants to help.
But try as I might
Yet, I am unable to find the dog.
Till then ,
I hold my hand on my heart
If it is a pain of some kind
I pray that the pain goes away …
I send a healing light
To shift the energy & ease the dog.

The gift of nature
From time to time
Make it a habit
To give yourself a gift
For wellness sake
The gift of nature
Plant a seed
Walk in nature
Hug a tree, touch a flower
Meditate in open spaces
And reduce your stress.
And uplift your mood

Potential for peace
Are you feeling the rage
Of a war within you
Is there a fire flaming through your veins
Is your heart thumping beyond your control
Are your thoughts so muddled that you just can’t think straight?
Well my friend, trust that this too shall pass
For your anger is self made from the agony
Of living life with frustration.
All you need is to acknowledge time as your best friend
For it shows you a new way in time
From reaction to response
But do you want to be responsible
For your self harm or healing ?
For your anger is destroying you.
Think about what ways you can flip the script you are telling yourself.
For its your thoughts and feelings that fuel your emotions, time and time again.
If your heart is hurt remember to think and align your heart with your mind.
If your thoughts are the reason and that anger is bubbling up your brain, know your heart is far expansive that you know, feel from your heart the love and forgiveness that stems from it. And align your thinking mind with the emotions of unconditional loving heart .
If both your heart and brain are a fire ball of fury then too you have the wisdom of your body. Train your body to move and realign yourself to help you step out of this phase.
Remember the potential for peace rests with you always.
It’s just a matter of acknowledging it. And bringing it into practice in response than reaction.
Peace is within you
Your infinite potential always included the peace that you actually are.

Weathering the storms
Wither not yourself away
Weathering the storms
Every life finds itself
In the whirlpool of chaos.
And often unfortunately so.
Pick yourself up
Dust away the doubts
Don your best attitude
And look ahead
At a not so distant time
And trust in yourself
For storms precede the calm.
Sense the strength of spirit
Moving towards your purpose
Know every storm has one
Find yourself on your way
To fulfilling your soul purpose.

Valley of Reactivity
Between & betwixt spaces
Of pause and activity
In the thinking and doing
Overcome the challenges
Of the conflicts of being.
Move on from valleys of reactions
From impulsive actions
That stems from assumptions
Reach out in responsiveness
Being positively intentional
Leading to clarity
In the deeper listening.

So much more…
Hopegiving & motivational words that serve as a reminder to self.
Feel free to share with whomever you think needs it at this moment.
Let not the problems that come by boggle you .
Know time has all the answers
Keep the faith.
Let not the hear and say affect you.
There is always more than what is said or heard.
So much more.
Let not the passion for whatever you do dwindle
Rest & recharge yourself & keep the spirit alive.
Let not the weight of what you carry pull you down.
You are definitely not defined by how much you bear.
You are much more than that.
So go ahead, aspire to transform yourself for the better
And keep moving closer to your dreams.
Taking a step in time.
And most importantly, trust in yourself
For there is always so much more
To you, for you & by you.
