I write when I am charged with an idea an inspiration. Or perhaps when there is nothing else to do.
I write to balance my emotions whenever it needs equilibrium.
I write to flow with the moment with a thought that aligns, as it calls on me and as I write, at times emerges into a pattern, in prose or verse.
I write to understand better when thoughts overpower…overstimulate the mind.
I write to let go and send out all that comes to my mind which I feel and hope can make a positive difference, somewhere to someone reading me.
I write at times in deliberation too to process and synthesise new understandings.
I write to unshackle from the many convictions I may unknowingly hold. As I write they break loose from restrictive spaces and help to align my thoughts in the sifting.
I write to express the bounties of life that I’m blessed to enjoy in gratitude.
I write to sense the bliss of being… with all of me in the moment.
I write to express myself my way.
What makes you write?

I share a capture of one of the International Dance Research Congress, that I was honoured to have attended in Athens.
Today is celebrated as the International Day of Dance…
Yet everyday I am thankful… and deeply grateful to the art of dance in bringing positive difference to my life.
Thankful to dance in my life, & all the wonderful people I have been priveleged to meet, connect, learn & share my passion for dance… 🙏✨

A young entrepreneur I know, just does not seem to have the time or patience to listen to the employees. She says how can she find time to run the company if she has to hear them all…
Well it’s actually valid as her company has more than hundreds of people.
I have had many things to say about the issues, worries and problems that are of concern, but as her friend and confidante too, it is somewhat very challenging to get the messages across all the time.
Here I share a few of my observations as suggestions that may work for holistic development of any organisation.
It is very important…
To know your circle of people.
Those who work with you
Those who work for you.
To show genuine care & understanding.
Genuine appreciation and acknowledging people for their work without favouritism makes a huge difference.
In return
You as a leader understand much more
Of what motivates them
Or challenges them
And you begin to create
Possible ways to make a meaningful difference
And grow together.
And if by chance you sense a lack of common purpose
You know you need to be ready to draw a line,
And let them go, if need be.
But all the same it’s important to be aware of, and connect with your circle of people well.

Change & Creativity
Evolution happens in the changes that are a precussor to transformation.
As humans much of our creativity is often boxed in association of concepts and experiences and their correlation.
A conscious unshackling of patterns of thought brings forth new and different ways of seeing & thinking. Every now and then take a pause, acknowledge the diverse new associations for it breeds creativity.
A deliberate action that reaches out far and wide to step out of conventional thought patterns is never easy especially as humans like to feel safe and secure in comfort of knowing of a stability and at ease at rest.
Change can be unsettling and startling for most to accept, to digest & acclamatize in the new shifts.And yet to create new spaces for light is to step up in the gamut of creativity there need to be, a dare into the unknown that explores dimensions beyond.

Learn the form, but seek the formless. Hear the soundless. Learn it all, then forget it all.Learn The Way, then find your own way.
The silent monk from the Forbidden kingdom
I love this wisdom of The Way
In trying to control
You realize in time
You never can have it all
In fact the more you try to do
You realize how unbalanced you are.
To find balance
You meet stillness in the listening
For it vibrates it’s own music.
Hear in silence and you sense it.
You don’t need to try too hard
What is meant to be found appears.
You don’t need to overstretch
You simply need to ease in to connect deeply.

In moments of loneliness
The tango of the mind & heart
May seem to overwhelm.
Choose to shift the narrative
Understand you can be alone
Without feeling lonely
Blame not your luck or fate
Find connects with your own self
Draw out the beauty of you.
Acknowledge your feelings
Allow your emotions to express
Draw your patterns of possibilities
Doodle, dance, sing or play
To express and let go.
The spirit of the soul revives.
Care to relish the moments
Of connects that you sense.
Remember you matter to you
Stop being hard on yourself
Start to discover your potential
Choose to know yourself
All of you body mind & spirit
Seek to sense the freedom to be
All that you want.
Do that which feels you
With or without company
Choose to carve your life
Choose to be in spaces
That makes you happy
Find ways to connect
Volunteer your time
For a cause that resonates
Sooner than later
You will find
Your kind of vibe
Somewhere somehow.

Freeing the body
Is to move without fear
Freeing the mind
Is to move beyond doubts
Freeing the heart
Is to hope beyond despair
Freeing the spirit
Is to sense the light in every now
Freeing the soul
Is to align to the purpose of being.
To find the flow
To free up space within
Is to let go resentment
Of trials and errors
Of judgements and assumptions
Freeing your breath
Is to sense life dance
In this now.

Every day is new.
A day to celebrate.
Unlike many,
We are alive to see the sun, hale n healthy.
What more reason is needed to celebrate.
Let the bitterness of the past
Dissolve in the darkness of the night.
Like a new dawn,
new beginnings,
new hopes, new effort to make it
a day with positivities and possibilities.
Step forward,
With grit and gratitude.
Each moment is special .
Miracles can happen in any moment.
Be aware when it happens.

Sharing a wise forward that came my way….
Lesson from Bamboo.
A bamboo plant is an example for patience.
Try growing a bamboo plant. Water it regularly. Seasons will come n go. It will stay adamant without even growing an inch taller. For four years it will stay the same. One has to have patience watering it for four years. Nothing will happen to make you happy.
On the fifth
year the magic will happen. On the next season it will start to grow. Not an ordinary growth. In one year it will reach a height of 80 feet
How a plant which remained dormant for the first 4 years could reach this magical height
in the fifth year.
There lies Nature’s secret.. The wonder of Creation.
The first four years the plant prepares a strong base inside the earth. For it’s astonishing growth in the fifth year it needs strong root base to hold it’s height . The patience it has is for the initial four years is for it’s sustenance in the following years.
That’s the reason when it reaches great heights in the fifth year it never collapses or fall down.
Patience is a virtue that creates great heights in success. Never be in haste to grow and expand until you create a strong foundation & groundwork for your growth. Then nothing can stop ur growth and success.
Nothing is impossible here.
Any technological l advancement calls for updating of skills and most of all adaptability.
Adaptability of any new technology calls for embracing change and developments in both actions & attitude…
For adaptability calls for new
learnings with the curiousity of an optimist.
A willingness to uncover the new.
to acknowledge with enthusiasm
In exploration and discovery
Of the potential possibilities.
And the acceptance of errors & misses inspite of the best efforts
& most of all a relentless
development of resilience
to bounce back on the path.
Do share your thoughts and insights on Adaptability.

Nature is magnificence
Teaching great lessons in humility.
Nature is amazing grace
As she holds within
The truths of the universe
The secret of the stars
As well as the sounds of silence
She is a dance in the stillness
Nature is flow and flow is nature Nature is life. And life flows…

I gave myself permission to feel and experience all of my emotions. In order to do that, I had to stop being afraid to feel. In order to do that, I taught myself to believe that no matter what I felt or what happened when I felt it, I would be okay.
Iyanla Vanzant
I love this powerful quote. It speaks to me of the strength within. Of valuing every emotion and it’s expression for what it is.
And most of all the strength of self belief in self assurance that all is well no matter what happens. It helps to be in touch with your feelings and make it your friend.
Whatever you feel is a way of channelizing your emotions. It heals you through expressions. It helps to acknowledge your emotions.
As you understand your emotions and feelings you become more self aware in life’s situations. It gives you the necessary strength and intelligence to tide through the rough times.
When your self-belief is strong, and faith is deep, nothing can rock your boat.

The paper is where it is
On it the pen moves
Driven by the hand
The fingers of writer
Holding the pen
Waltzing on paper
Shaping thoughts
In a flow all its own.
And the soul & spirit
Of the writer imprints
For eternity…
