Your energy is yours to protect
Shield it with love and forgiveness
Allow happy thoughts
Let go the unnecessary frictions
If you find yourself too exhausted by anothers energy
Too consumed in every interaction…
Where you feel depleted and worn out
May be it is time to move away and balance your energy
Most of all listen to your body…
How do you feel after any interaction with someone
Energetic or depleted
The signs are there for a reason
Choose your path well
Think well. Do well. Be well.

Meet not force with force.
It is futile and destructive.
Meet force with fluidity and flexibility,
In quiet perseverance.
In adaptability than rigidity.
For even brute force buckles in time.
Savvy
Being tender in the toughest of times
Being gentle and generous with the self
In times of chaos and conflicts
In and around us
Is the way of weathering-the-storms.
Being caring and compassionate
In thoughts words and deeds.
With empathy that empowers
In light and goodwill.
Is the way of gentle heart
Flowing in loving kindness.
Conscious compassionate thoughts within become embedded in the core structure of the being, and what is powered from a strong core radiates outwards with the magnitude of faith and strength.”

Roads of Goa
Don’t know you
How you live and breathe
In these nondescript pathway.
Yet here you are
Vividly present
Colouring the blue sky
With blossoms of contrasts.
Mature trunk and verdant leaves
You strike a pose
You hold a stance
In your unique way.
I see you dear tree
Grateful for your being
For you nurtured many lives
Seen many a solar cycles.
I bless you with all my heart
For healing this world…
For the world may be
You are just another tree
For me you live vibrantly
Evergreen in my memories.
A sight to behold
A vision to thank
In recognition and gratitude
For your impactful presence🙏
A trip down memory lane.
An unexpected yet beautiful burst of colour contrasting the bright blue sky prompted me to click a photo in a split second, enroute a road trip to Goa a few years ago…
P.S.
Sharing some amazing facts about the positive ecological impacts from one fully mature tree, that I came across.

That I am fond of trees is nothing new… I have written many verses on trees before as well, yet in here I share a message close to my heart…
Nurture nature Nurture trees.
You are doing an important service to help support self sustaining powerhouse of oxygen to our planet.

I wrote this poem below years ago. I had no idea about who Julia Hill was back then. And today I was reminded of my poem, when I came across her story. She is an American Activist who saved Luna the redwood tree by living in it to prevent loggers from cutting off the tree and […]
The lady on the tree
The past is clutching you
But choose to sculpt a new now
Shed your old skin
Unclasp the tags.
Yesterday may hold you captive
But choose to chisel on relentlessly
Bit by bit…
And free yourself from its vice like grip.
Your tommorow awaits in patience,
Trust, all is well in time.
Shape yourself into who you are.

(My verses in a flow, inspired by the image share that came my way.)
Storms rage and ravage
They lay waste the efforts
And destruct many a lives.
Yet they rise, only to fall
When the storm subsides
The world picks up the pieces
Of the then and now…
To build again in hope
That tommorow is another new day.
But storms that pass, often leave imprints;
Of traumas in those testing times
Of fear in the back of the mind.
They appear in dreams
Almost as if it is reality.
They create confusion in the sanest of times
But when the heart knows
That fear is just the mind
Playing its tricks again.
It becomes brave
And continues to beat stronger
And life dances to its beats…
For it has survived the storm.
Rest all is history 💙
Storms have a way of playing with our life even when they have long subsided.
The brewing storm in our thoughts and dreams may seem fearful yet they also bring perspective to empower ourselves.
I write these verses inspired by the reading the title and verses of this poem, this morning. Thank you 🙏 poeticmobility.
And the image here is from my Ai artwork collections, for I somehow feel it belongs here as well.
I leave a question here for you to reflect upon…
Every life has survived its own share of storms
Leaving much wisdom in the learnings behind.
What lesson has your heart learned after the storm?
Savvy Raj
An open pathway beckons you
Across the threshold
See the horizon of hope
In the warmth of day light
Take a step forward in trust
It holds much promise
Glide onto the green fields
Let your spirit soar
And sense the spirit of freedom
To be all that you can be..

An artist leaves much more
than creativity in the artwork.
There is a voice in every frame,
speaking deeply if you care to listen.
That voice carries the artist’s choices
of color and composition,
of style and strokes,
of moods and feelings
breathed into the birth of art.
The artist speaks through the work.
The energy of the artist is embedded
in words, in lines, in shapes and forms.
When a piece feels complete,
the artist releases it to the world.
And yet, the energy lives on,
transforming itself through time
and the spaces it inhabits.
Art is transformed again
in translation and interpretation,
reshaped by those who encounter it.
As creators, whether of images or words,
our work continues to live,
each viewer or reader sensing its energy uniquely.
And so it flows…
transforming itself in time.

Often it is in the adversity,
you meet your true strengths.
In the tests of life,
you find your true self.
That which you discover
in these challenges,
arrives in the journey
to steer you on your path.
So hold on, in trust & faith.
For no matter what,
all in not lost.
You will find it in you,
to begin anew.
In experiences of adversity,
you meet yourself.
And that’s the gamechanger.
A question to my reader…
If you were to think of the past challenges,what comes to mind as a strength you uncovered about your self that you wouldn’t have found any other way ?
Savvy Raj
Every morning in my moments of gratitude, I reflect on the things that I could have some times taken for granted. It has become a consistent habit for many years now…
In these contemplations there is often much that emerges, sometimes what’s apparent is not what is, and sometimes what is, is not all…
Today it was all about strength, not the kind that makes you go on, to push further but actually the kind that is gentle and quiet, I am talking of that which is often invisible.
What came up was …
That strength doesn’t have to proclaim
That strength is often that which is hidden in you
That surfaces in the storms
That strength too needs rest to recover and its ok
That strength is seen in the so called small ordinary moments of life in subtle ways
That strength needs no nudging but nurturing in gratitude, for it appears whenever in need as a force of nature.
That every one of your strengths and my strengths are valuable in our lives to make it whole and complete.
Gratitude to all spheres of strength in need for its a strength in deed.

A little more in compassion
A little more gentleness
A little more in consideration
A little more consciousness
A little more awareness
A little more connection
A little more conversation
A little more communication
A little more alignment
A little more in care
All it takes is a little more
To make a meaningful difference.
That little extra effort
In time & space
Turns ordinary to extraordinary.
Savvy
Infinite are possibilities of growth, in a circle of team,
Increasing a sense of belonging, mutual respect & engagement
Of human potential,
In the realisation that no one is as strong as all of us.
