Many people imagine a tree house…
A house on a tree?
Sure that would be an experience
But the way of life
Is if you are living on a tree
Make sure that within you
You plant the tree of Gratitude
For life is a circle
Circle in with a grateful heart.

A thought in kindness
A word of kindness
A deed in kindness
Count up much more
Than you realise
Imagine the wealth of joy
You will have created
In a lifetime.
Leaving imprints of kindness
In thoughts words and deeds
Makes a world of difference
The wisdom born of balance…
Being able to see the true essence
Of living life in the middlepath
Knowing the power of being gentle
Just as much as of toughness
In every circumstance.
Discerning when to be what
And with whom is the key
To successful life management.
Developing the discipline
In mind body & spirit
Calls for equanimity of not tilting
To the extremes of behavior
In thoughts words deeds.
What is your take on equanimity?
Savvy
Trust, that you are Chosen
To take a step towards change
To be the peaceful warrior
Who can brave new frontiers
With acts of kindness
And words of positivity
In goodwill do deeds for humanity
Bringing forth the best you can
And you truly can
Then every day feels meaningful
And with every now purposeful
You begin to understand
Who you truly are.

Cultivation of Gratitude
Gratitude brings forth
A shift in perspective
In feeling thankfulness
In sensing appreciation
In seeing the glass half full
Than half empty
In seeing the sunny side
Of things than as cloudy
For the way of seeing
Is a choice in our hands.
Internal effects of Gratefulness
An increase in dopomine
Sense of satisfaction
A boost in sertonin
Feeling of positivity
Count your blessings
Gratitude makes us recognize and value things we already have even more. That is how it brings a sense of abundance.
Every day a practice of gratitude could include a variety of things that may feel right to you. From seeing the positives in a situation or in people, focusing on the good in life journaling regularly and being thankful, etc
A practice of living life with a positive attitude makes life more meaningful.
Give gratitude freely without holding back.

In the fragility of life
Lives trust in hope & faith
Strengthened by signs of integrity
Weakened by fear and doubts
In the labyrinth of this world
Trust dares to deliver itself
Finding its own way, invisibly
In its nuances rests complexities
Like mysterious & hidden stories
For trust holds itself through
Shaping itself in silence
Forging connections in time
In enduring or fleeting moments
This digital age is a tryst with trust
On what to believe or not to
In this era & changing times.
No matter the challenges
The nature of trust is trust itself
Like an intricate & sacred thread.
Reflecting in this sentiment
Embodying it, is this dance of trust.

I came across this thought provoking quote…
Don’t time travel into the past, roaming through the nuances as if they can change. Don’t bookmark pages you’ve already read.
James Altucher
Aren’t we all guilty of going back in time?
Sometimes it’s beautiful to remember… the good but often it may bring up the unwanted as well.
Time moves forward not backward
Traveling into the past
Roaming through the memories
Rummaging through the nuances
Is it truly required?
Can we try to remember the good
Learning to let go unnecessary.

What if storms come when in the middle of the ocean.
What if volcanos erupt ,where the shelter is. .
What if tsunami sweeps in while relaxing at the beach.
What if earth quake shakes the ground underneath.
Human spirit is so strong
It will overcome any obstacle that comes in its way.
Strong is the will power and grit.
Our race has seen all these and much more in the times bygone.
Resilience and humanity overpowers all mishaps .
We rise from the ashes to build from the scratch.
We can make edges bend to make us the path to proceed.
Never fall down.
Never loose hope.
Though life is a struggle
We are meant to survive.
Our faith and inner light are the anchors.
Hope & effort are the oars that steer us forward.
Keep moving.
Keep winning.
For we are meant to survive.
Sharing a poem by my mother Anjana
As light dawns
It dispels darkness
Spreads hope & cheer
Bringing joy & happiness
To all touched by this light.
As the waves of light
Transmit itself in the world
Hearts heal and life regenerates
For light is meant to be light
Care to sense the light in you.

There are few gifts
Of life in the living
Like the joy of laughter
Like the happiness of smiles
Like the sharing of loving kindness
Like the sensing of gratitude
They add to your life
They heal your being
Body mind and Soul.
The more you have it
And live expressing it
The better the health of your heart.
A good thought
A good deed
A good laugh
And all is well
In the lightness of being.
Sensing my share of these gifts.
Are you?

Our words breathe the truth of our souls
The way we feel deep within
Somehow find a way to breathe in and out
To find their own sense of balance
The words we speak, the words we think and the words we write. We have a mind, body, spirit connect with our words.
In fact our words can be both…
The energy of our emotions
Raining relentlessly
And also the signature of our souls!
Savvy
Often in the daily grind of life
We begin to take things for granted
Everyone we have with us
Every gift we are given in time
Every solution that solved issues
Every answer that came our way
The light of this day
The bliss of a restful sleep
A smile from a stranger
That made your day
A helping hand when in need
Nurturing home made food
Unconditional love from a furchild
And so much more..
Life gives you much
It’s in us to acknowledge
And recognise the good in our way
And appreciate this now
For all that which you already have!
Savvy
Whenever spirituality is discussed… there is always a question as to what is spirituality? And what is its significance in our lives?
Spirituality is a sensing of connection. The first step towards spirituality is about understanding the self as we are and then it’s an understanding of something greater than the self.
Simply put the spiritual significance of our lives is in the way we choose to live our lives.
To me spirituality is a sense of being & becoming a better person than yesterday, in selfawareness,in empathic connection, in being compassionate and kinder human being.
There are many pathways to explore spirituality and it’s unique to each of us.
It’s a pathway to finding the truth of your being and living life lovingly!
From yoga and movement arts to prayer and divination, the way we approach spiritual practices is varied and as unique as us.
What is spirituality to you?
Do you consider yourself a spiritual person?
What are your kind of spiritual practices?
