Way of Love
It’s the way of love, to accept and allow
It’s the way of love, to empower with hope
It’s the way of love, to sense the light of life.
It’s the way of love, to share from the heart.
For love is the gift of life.
And it’s the way of love, to be filled with gratitude.

Nature nurtures
Watching this papaya tree grow in our garden gives me great joy. Nature has so much wisdom to offer if we take time to reflect on it.
Love how the tiny little shoots are protected and nurtured by an umbrella of more mature leaves until they are ready to face the sun on their own…

Hope is here to stay!
Truly life is how you live it.
Your attitude your thoughts matter.
It truly is starkly different
The way we feel dark and dense in scarcity consciousness
The way we feel lightness of being in sensing abundance.
From ashes, to rising like a phoenix,
The power of hope changes destiny.
Limitless is the power of positive thoughts.
Thoughts of abundance opens up ways to explore more.
In moments of despair, it truly is about flipping the script in our heads to sense possibilities in the limitless potential.
Unending is the power of hope.
After all…
Day unto night
Dark unto light.
Hope is here to stay!

Reap as you sow
Forest creators
When there is authentic effort
When the intentions are expansive
And the purpose stronger together
In the journey of life
Dreams take roots to realize itself.
Seeds to trees
Trees to forest
Barren lands turn fertile greens
Salute to this inspiring couple who created a forest out of barren land.
Together they have planted more than 2000 trees… Do read more…

Grateful
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 partly cloudy
The way of seeing is a choice in our hands
Natural involuntary effects
An increase in dopomine
Sense of satisfaction
A boost in sertonin
Feeling of positivity
A practice of seeing all things with a positive attitude makes life more meaningful
Gratitude makes us recognize and value things we already have even more. That is how it brings a sense of abundance.
Seeing the positive side, focusing on the good in life journaling regularly and being thankful
Every day a practice of gratitude could include a variety of things that may feel right to you.
And of course you will have unexpected serendipitous moments that you can’t help feeling grateful for…
Today morning as I stepped to my terrace garden I saw a beautiful squirrel enjoying the food bowl and water bowl I have placed on the ledge there for birds. I watched with joy and happiness as this little guy munched and munched.
Feeling grateful for a great start my day… Feeling thankful the squirrel is feeding. Hope he is able to feed here every day.
Gratefulnness is a beautiful attitude with lasting effects through the day. Cultivate the attitude of Gratitude.

Life is what you make of it!
The very fact you are reading this
May change your perspective
All of what you interact or sense
Shifts and alters meanings.
You, as a reader & observer
Have the power in you.
You, matter to the whole
What matters to you
Matters to the whole.
Create a beautiful you,
You create a beautiful whole…
Here is why…
The core of particle physics
The truths of sacred geometry
The essence of prayer
The logics of yogic systems
The dynamics of integration
The beliefs of ancient wisdom.
The cosmic interconnects
Creation to destruction
Birth to regeneration
Order to disorder
Chaos to resurrection
Stillness & movements
Balance & harmony
Time , space & distance
All is a matter of energy.
The observer effects the observed.
All of life, the sun & the stars
The universe you are in
You are because they are
They are because you are.
Understand as an observer
You are playing a part
What you do with it
Is a choice in free will
The choice is with you.

Music & Creativity
Inculcating a habit of listening to music regularly, or even practicing music by learning to sing or playing an instrument, can improve your creativity.
Learning anything new can spark new neural pathways and bridge old learnings in associations to ignite unique creative expressions.
As far as music it is a holistic experience with benefits much beyond its entertainment factor. The right music can heal and regenerate cells in our body.
Music can be a healing medicine for the body, mind and spirit. Personally, like for many of you, I love many art forms, like music, dance and painting, writing and singing because they have an immensely positive effect on me. It makes me whole again, ready to face a new day… For instance, I am fond of different types of music at different times of the day…often I sense how refreshed I feel after listening or singing to them.
At home every once in a while my daughter and I find singing mashups of old and new songs together on the Karaoke very rejuvenating…One thing leads to another, humming or singing some melodies while going through the day, makes the moments feel light. I also find listening to gentle, soft instrumental music while painting very enjoyable.
What are your experiences with music?
When was the last time you heard your favorite songs?
When did you do something creative while listening to music?

On Peace
Wherever you are,
Wherever you go
Be a messenger of peace
Sense the hope that peace brings
In its wake, life regenerates.

I am Grateful
Gratitude is always worth it.
Cultivating it, changes your life
Moving heart and mind
To acknowledge the abundance
I am Grateful.
Reflections in Trees
Have you sensed the reflections
Of human life in trees?
Speaking metaphorically
The roots of the trees
Holding memories of the past
Buried in time, deep within
The tree trunk presents itself
To the world representing the now
Dreams and desires
Ambitions and aspirations
Are like the branches reaching out
And the fruits and flowers
Are like the rewards of success
So much truth of life in these trees
Let’s care to nurture them
And imbibe the learnings
From their deep rooted wisdom.

Have I?
A few questions to reflect on…
Have I made some one smile today?
Have I shared some good with all of my heart?
Have I written positive words and felt goodwill?
Have I stayed calm in my difficult moments?
Have I been a little more loving today?
Have I made me better than yesterday?

On Forgiveness
On Forgiveness
An action that builds bridges
Creates connections
Erases errors
And heals hearts.
©Savvy Raj
And I love this inspiration that I came across in my readings today…
Because forgiveness is like this:
A room can be dark because you have closed the windows, you’ve closed the curtains. But the sun is shining outside, and the air is fresh outside. In order to get that fresh air, you have to get up and open the window and draw the curtains apart. Desmond Tutu
What are your thoughts on this?
