These are certainly abilities worth cultivating :))
Ability to see the good is a great habit to cultivate
Ability to respect the people for who they are.
Ability to work with diversity of thoughts
Ability to coexist in peace and harmony.
Ability to generate goodwill whenever we can.
Ability to make light of things
Ability to dance in the rain
As much as in the lightness of being.

I loved these lines …
On learning in life.
Life is blessed
In valuing the gifts we have,
In cultivation of skills we are enriched
And life is transformed in the choices we make.
Life is full of infinite learnings
Endless opportunities and possibilities …
Life is how we make it!

A moment of self-compassion can change your entire day.
A string of such moments can change the course of your life.”

This very relevant quote came my way & I simply had to share ❤
You may…
Follow others to learn and imbibe
But you cannot become another
For you are created for a reason.
You carry your future in your today
Your life paves its own way
No one can be you or live like you.
You are not another or to be them.
Asserting the uniqueness of creation
Such is the way of nature.
Be you as you are…
Savvy
Time evolves one and all, come what may.
Yesterday’s mountains have become paths today
Love of life will show the way
As you keep building bridges not walls I say.

A dear friend shared this picture on social Media and it left me contemplating…
We are born to connect
In one way or other
For a purpose larger
Than our individual self
There is light that we have
That we ourselves may not know
The potential of, that manifests
To serve at the right time.
There is always a reason
For this now, so rise above despair
And look onward and upward
The way is forward in faith
To live and help heal some more.
No wonder its said ‘Hands that help
Is holier than lips that pray…’
We are carriers of hope
That pass on for posterity
Our life is intricately weaved
In every moment of our being
Through the echelons of time
For a reason, we may or never know
Such is the ‘Mystic of life’
In all its brilliant manifestations.
Savvy
Who is there when there is no one to turn to?
Who is there to bear it all?
Who is there to help you back on track?
Who is your trustworthy ally ?
Its you and only you.
Truly …
Everything you need is already inside you!
This one line is a wonderful boost to bring an awareness back of the strength within us all.
Wouldn’t you agree?
Savvy
The power that creates
The omnipresence
Is all knowing consciousness
That is there to take care
All of creation
Cannot be without a reason
Trust the purpose
Keep the faith
Faith is all there is
Without faith nothing is
Savvy
Our guiding voice from within
Is always speaking to us
Signaling in a whisper or a sign
Conveying what is the’ Gut feel ‘
Our second brain is often ignored
But it operates nevertheless
Resonating or relegating
An advice to our being
If only we know to listen in
We draw from its bank of wisdom
And better manage our choices
In staying integrated in life & living.

Personally speaking, I have a deep interest in the art of movements, especially the ones that elucidate the flow… perhaps that is why I love dancing but on the other hand I have been equally captivated by the beauty of Tai chi and more so Qi Gong.
The healing energy of movement has often been a subject of deep passion, respect and research for me.
Likewise I am especially fond of the flowing Waltz as well. Since childhood, dancing comes naturally to me but have always found myself grappling to understand why martial art is even necessary.Until much later I started exploring the potency of energy in each of us…through a little introduction into Tai chi as well by conscious choice.
Allow me to present my reflections on this subject in a flow….
In a dance
There is an interconnect
Of emotion and movement
As to emote is to sense
The feeling in the flow…
In dance there is an awareness
Of moving in response
Without anticipation.
As in one step less,
The music moves on
And you are left to improvise
On how to match the steps in rhythm.
Yes, truly to dance is to enjoy the life in the moves.
In martial arts
There is flow too
But a flow that is ever in alertness,
In strategic moves and self defense
The speed and swiftness
In reaction and response.
Martial arts often feels like dance… t
But often the difference
Is between life and death.
Both are connected in the deepest sense and yet distinctive like chalk and cheese.
The intention to dance and to fight…is what differentiates.
We dance to let go, to enjoy this now and celebrate it.
In awareness is a flow that merges in harmony to synch in with now in artistry of the moves
The warrior is fighting for peace for survival against all odds
Not knowing what is the next move but yielding to the now to decipher the countermove and strike.
Here too there is often a display of extreme artistry of motion in accuracy of time.
To learn both, takes dedication and practice in patience.
But most of all is the need for relentless will & passion to persevere .
Yes, there is a dancer in a warrior
And a warrior in the dancer.
Choice rests within you.
Just remember, to dance is to live the moments and explore its most aesthetic potential in the flow… choose not to make dance a fight.
Stay joyful in peace.
To learn martial arts is to get into the arena and survive.
Attack or in self defense with least possible harm to get out of harms way to stay in peace.
Both may have their own relevance in purpose
To negate one is to look at only one half of the circle
Just as much as joy is part of life
Safekeeping the freedom to be
Is equally important in every now…
Do you want to dance in peace
Do you want to fight for peace.
Choice is yours to make
Peace or war!
Savvy.
Is the beguiling beauty of nature
Meant to have its own purpose
Afterall,everything is connected
Nothing is accidental.
However free in abandon we may feel
In this moment, we are bound
By the laws of nature
And its in these tangible connects
In being part of nature
We are deeply disturbed
By the imbalances of nature.
All of animaldom chooses harmonious
Coexistence with natures laws.
Unlike humans who try to outsmart nature and its ways.
Yet nature nourishes and nurtures itself in every now.
Such is the truth of life and living in nature.
High time to evolve with the lessons
nature shares.
Know that there is always a reason
To the way things are…
What we cannot see with our eyes
Nature of nature, emotes through our senses
Leaving the heart imprints,
Of wisdom in impressions for all of posterity…
Savvy
All is a matter of attitude
We create our lives in every now
As we choose to think and be
Our lifes moment aligns itself.
As each individual life begins to see
The value of self awareness and hopefulness.
Life evolves for one and all
Better communities to nations…
We as a world, are more powerful
Than what we choose to believe …
For we are our own changemakers
War or peace is a choice we have with us.
