Hear to be heard
Value to be valued
Acknowledge.
It makes a world of difference in a ‘ever busy world’ that’s always checking time.
Giving time and energy to understand another with empathy will help shift perspectives for the better.
Savvy

If ever you are in a position where you are hurt and helpless and want to help yourself out of this situation check on your own behavior
Are you speaking and sharing more than you should?
Are you over explaining and try to match up to anothers expectations and not valuing your own strengths?
Are you defending yourself when the other person refuses to understand anothers perspective?
Are you too sensitive and taking things personally when actually the source of the issues or the problem is not you at all?
Often it is self awareness that is the first step towards bettering your life.
A self check to see your reactions is definitely a way to improving how you handle and manage difficult people in life.
Tbe way to make life favorable to you , is in living as if all is rigged in your favor.

Things happen, and just when it all feels dark, there is a crack…
Where light enters in hope!

There is always a reason why, nothing is accidental. The cracks are where light shines through , like the crack of dawn.And the sooner in time, in the tiniest cracks, whenever the ego shatters to transform itself in humility, all resets in transcendence to begin again, renewed in purpose.
Such is the nature of life & living.
All is well in hope.

Here’s a thoughtworthy share

Air Commodore Vishal was a Jet Pilot. In a combat mission his fighter plane was destroyed by a missile. He however ejected himself and parachuted safely. He won acclaims and appreciations from many.
After five years one day he was sitting with his wife in a restaurant. A man from another table came to him and said “You’re Captain Vishal ! You flew jet fighters. You were shot down!”
“How in the world did you know that?” asked Vishal.
“I packed your parachute,” the man smiled and replied.
Vishal gasped in surprise and gratitude and thought if parachute hadn’t worked, I wouldn’t be here today.
Vishal couldn’t sleep that night, thinking about that man. He wondered how many times I might have seen him and not even said ‘Good morning, how are you?’ or anything because, he was a fighter pilot and that person was just a safety worker”
So friends, who is packing your parachute?
Everyone has someone who provides what they need to make it through the day.
We need many kinds of parachutes– we need the physical parachute, the mental parachute, the emotional parachute, and the spiritual parachute.
We call on all these supports before reaching safety.
Sometimes in the daily challenges that life gives us, we miss what is really important.
We may fail to say hello, please, or thank you, congratulate someone on something wonderful that has happened to them, give a compliment, or just do something nice for no reason.
As you go through this week, this month, this year, recognize the people who pack your parachute.
Happy New Year

Wishing and intending for wonderful New year ahead…
On Intentions and Actions
Whenever we want or intend for something we must also be ready to do something about it.
Here are few ‘Wants ‘and Intentions and what one can to do about it.
If you want happiness try making another happier.
True joy comes to you when you serve another.
Serve yourself some laughter if you want your spirit to feel free.
Fill your day with Gratitude whenever you are looking for Abundance.
And if you want friendship to manifest in life why not start by being your own best friend.
If you are searching for love why not begin to love your self ♥️
Also, choose to take a walk in nature if you are intending for some more insightful perspectives .
I for one can vouch for the creative ideas and reflections that a simple walk brings to me.
Have a beautiful blessed
New year 2025
Live life lovingly!

We are parts of the same whole
Pieces of the same puzzle
We are entwined and embedded
In each other’s existence
No one can do it all alone
In acknowledgement of this truth
In thanking the learnings
In respecting the value of life
In gratitude for the support
From others, we open ourselves
To the empowering strength
In the interconnects.

This morning I witnessed
A glorious vision awaiting me…
The ‘Rays of the Sun’
Sharing light, hope
And blessings through the trees
Energizing the spaces
In and around me…
Such a picture perfect moment.
While sensing the Grace of the Sun.

To breath well is a blessing . For every breath is never to be taken for granted.
In every breath we take
Let’s value this gift of life.
Acknowledging our breath
Lets breathe in ease .
Lets take a moment
In between breaths
Pause with ease
Relax the self
To let go with ease
And repeat…
Every breath matters.
Savvy Raj

What makes me feel peaceful ?
Just spending time with our little furball combing his long coat every other day makes me feel peaceful.
A little moment every now and then writing my thoughts down feels peaceful
Spending time alone witnessing the stillness of the breath or practicing Qi Gong in the garden with green trees for company makes me feel peaceful.
Meditative moments especially at home in front a Buddha statue makes me feel peaceful.
Painting and dancing without an agenda, on my own, whenever I wish to, makes me feel peaceful.
But most of all…
Living in the now, without too many expectations makes me peaceful ✌️
What makes you feel peaceful?

And sometimes when things don’t go as planned
May be you have been saved from some unknown obstacle
May be it wasn’t the right time
May be its all for the better.

Sit down with your feelings
Like a good friend
Listen to it to understand
What it conveys to you
It works out for you.
Your emotions are not your enemy
They are your vent
They are your support systems
For the body to feel at ease
Be a good friend to you
And your emotions will thank you
As you thank them.

I wrote this poem back in time after an unexpected opportunity to travel set me off across exploring unforgettable places and spaces on my own.

Yesterday as I was conversing with one of my earlier dance student and friend now, he somehow reminded me of this poem again , as he has been traveling the length and breadth of India on a bike, covering over 80% of India.
While I wait to see his photo shares and hear more from him about his experience in the journey.
Thought of sharing my verses again.
Travel On
If you are given an opportunity to take a journey
Take it, for you meet many versions of you.
Along the road.
Some you cherish, some cherish you.
Some that change you and some that you change.
Fear not the travel or the traveling…
For one thing is certain
You come away enriched and wiser in every journey.
Travel to liberate yourself
From self assumed notions
To see the light on the other side
There is much to unlearn and unbox
As you travel yield in to the insights
Travel every once in a while if opportunity arises,
Take the chance,
You are richer in your explorations much as your experiences.
Travel on …
