Life simply turns around when you believe in yourself.
Self belief is important for life living
To believe in others you begin by believing in yourself.
If the seed sown is not full of self belief
It cannot manifest its roots or grow upward to see the light of day.
Magnificence of creation is itself so full of faith.
Rooted in the belief of manifestations
Of potential possibilities.

If you can understand the why
You can formulate the how
If you can relate to the reason
Your awareness is constantly altering
The resolution in resonance
You are responding not reacting.
Sometimes it is intuition that guides you.
At times it is the process of deductions
Or even conscious self-analysis
And adopting scientific temperament
Whatever the path if the why is clear
The how is easy.

The moment at hand is the only thing We really own…
Why wait for Christmas to be nice ?
Express appreciation, encourage another.
Share the goodwill &cheer in every season.
Be grateful and gracious
Be kind and caring
Be nice in every now!
Savvy
Live your life with the grace of faith in your heart
Touch a heart, reach beyond knowledge
Speak with certainty and be assuring.
Yet be gracious. Be gentle. Be loving.
There is much going on in the in-between.
In the silence of the unsaid and unspeakable.
Delve deeper and reach the truth of the being.
In these ponderings are great insights.
Bringing forth the wisdom in the subtlety of being.
Life is fragile yet fascinating if you choose to see it so.
There is strength in the vulnerabilities of life.
For every life carries in it the wisdom of living many lifetimes.
The purpose of your life is much more than you can make sense of.
Live your life lovingly!

AN ARTIST’S RELATION TO SOLITUDE
An artist must make time for the long periods of solitude
Solitude is extremely important
Away from home
Away from the studio
Away from family
Away from friends
An artist should stay for long periods of time at waterfalls
An artist should stay for long periods of time at exploding volcanoes
An artist should stay for long periods of time looking at fast-running rivers
An artist should stay for long periods of time looking at the horizon where the ocean and sky meet
An artist should stay for long periods of time looking at the stars in the night sky
Marina Abramovic
I loved the poem enough to share it, yet felt there is something much deeper to reflect there.
Is solitude the road to stillness … afterall there is often stillness in the movements and movement in the stillness as well.
So I would like to ask an artist…
Do you really want solitude or stillness ?
Sometimes in deep solitude there is no stillness.
And that is perhaps the reason for the need of staying away from it all.
Staying away is not the answer but just a change to alter and arrange thoughts.
For thoughts run amuck sometimes and have a speed all their own
Perhaps the need of the moment is being still
To witness the tides as they rise and recede.
Stillness is amidst it all in your hearts
Not in some far away place.
Then anytime you are free to…
Walk in to your own special place.
Art happens out of nowhere
It has no specific time to arrive
In the busiest of moments
Arises an insight
To write to paint and draw
It tugs on your heart to create itself.
It sees no day or night
No reason to appear or disappear
In fact art is living in every moment
Waiting for us to manifest it.
Savvy
Whenever life wears you out
Whenever you forget your true self
Whenever life challenges you
Whenever you need some guidance…
Remember the truth of your own being
Sense the light of your soul.
Remember you are a spark of divinity
And all is truly well.

What makes humanity disappear in some humans?
Why hurt another life in any form?
Why does one life think themselves superior to the other?
Why does man think another life as less important?
What makes human become callous and cunning?
What can we do to change the equation?
If we are human we are responsible.
And must be accountable for our mistakes.
Our crimes often go unpunished
We think we have an edge over the innocent beings
Just because they cannot voice themselves out.
But remember justice is always served
By the creator’s hand.
Have a heart. Acknowledge life.
Behave compassionately. Be empathetic.
Treat life right. Be kind and humane.
Then & only then can we call ourself human.

Season’s Greetings to all my readers.
Today my post is a little self-reflective… it is on my own writings here on WordPress.
It’s certainly very nice to feel acknowledged. Especially by WordPress that I have published 450 posts in a row. It has been a beautiful journey so far.
And yes, I am hoping to keep writing more.✍
We all can write if we truly wish to. Often our writings are a reflection of our understanding of experiences in life. Writing regularly gives me a sense of contentment as well as a feeling of letting go.
Of late a regular reader pointed out to me how my posts have changed and diversified to touch many other topics of life and living.
Yes, it is true and I appreciate them for noticing and sharing this.🙏
At times I write immediately when I see or experience something that touches me. I must add that I feel as writers, every once in a while, we must deliberately try to break a set pattern… if we feel we are getting into a mould.
New topics give us scope to enrich ourselves to understand ways to break free from monotony and explore more.
Personally, I feel my writings have now become more spontaneous than before by simply writing regularly. I write on all kinds of things that mean something to me. I emote and express and hope to evolve for the better through my own writings. So for me, it’s a cathartic experience.
Thank you, dear readers, for reading & sharing my works and this journey with me and hope to continue seeing your words and reflections here on WordPress. And thank you as well for inspiring me with all your lovely reflections.
Lots of love and goodwill to you all!
Savvy Raj.
Why learn to dance?
Because it eases you out of yourself.
Sometimes in the throes of life and living
A tough hand is dealt with
And as you fumble through
You realize how constricted you are
Your sense of being is somewhat lost
Your funny bone misplaced
You forget to live life
And your moments start to matter less
Life feels drab
Your body feels dense
Your movements drag
And your thoughts feel dull.
In these moments where life is truly trying …
It’s great to give dance a try.
Consider trying to move from where you are
Step up a little and rock a bit
Feel the swing in your heartbeats
And sense your spirits soar
Dance on and step to the tunes of life
And who knows?
You find you love life all over again.

Came across this profoundly touching and valuable take on life and how it teaches us lessons in living.
Sharing it here today.
A poem by
Jorge Luis Borges
You learn…
I checked about this poet and learned more about him on Wikipedia….
Jorge Luis Borges Acevedo was an Argentine short-story writer, essayist, poet and translator, and a key figure in Spanish-language and universal literature.
If you interested here are some of his other works… Short stories: The Aleph, The Library of Babel, The South, The End, The Garden of Forking Paths,
To write is to express
And emote your feelings…
To read is to explore
And experience the writers work
Every time…
In the sharing is the learning.
A writer can speak much with a few words
Or wax eloquent with charming flourishes.
Whatever the way whenever it touches the heart…
There is something acknowledged.
Sometimes great learnings happen in the sharings.

We are vulnerable beings
And yet in that vulnerability is strength
That resurrects us while unnerving us.
Beyond conflicts is the emergence
All transitions in time to the transcendence…
In spirit and soul.
Savvy
Contd from
Touching the nerve of truth
It is not an easy task to confront
Cause to confront is to be ready for conflict
Be it any kind…
From mental social or physical and more
Conflicts are always unwanted.
But change is the only constant
And life moves on creating itself.
In any art and creative endeavour
Say even speaking & writing for that matter, there is much scope for influences and perceptions.
It is the nature of truth to transform
But not without chaos and confusion
Such is the nature of human frailty.
There in lies the strength of human spirit. (Contd)

The path of art is open to interpretation. Creativity per se is a birthing process. It can be extremely exhausting and exhilarating at the same time.
The creator is bearing the brunt of creativity just as much as the beauty of it all.
Creativity is challenging and comforting.
It can box then unbox you as an artist.
When creativity churns out art it opens itself to perspectives and dimensions of reflections.
Art appears in all its magnificence from the
seemingly endearing and enchanting…
It has its influences on the heart and mind of the audience as much as the artist.
Art may then touch upon the purpose of artistry.
Or it may completely stay undermined and undiscovered.
Yet the truth is Art has far-reaching potential and the artist is capable of inspiring or influencing through his creation. And the same art can transform or trick the mind.
Every creation has a time frame that goes along,
Sometimes the creation is self-destructive.
Or at times creation may become redundant in time and fade away
Yet there are cases of creative expression where interpretations leave imprints in the human consciousness forever.
Art has a unique capacity to transform the psyche of understanding.
Art reflects the life and at times life reflects art.

The strength of the interconnects run deeper than we can fathom.
We are much more interweaved and interdependent than we realise.
And the sooner we realize how much we need to coexist, the better we will be.
Savvy
When there is…
Health and happiness & good attitude.
Life feels worth living.
Keep your energies balanced.
Keep your emotions stable.
Trust yourself to be better
Eat well think well and be well.
Live life lovingly.
