Inside Outside

Today I thank in gratitude

The power of the mind

The heart and the spirit

Our body is blessed

With many gifts of the soul

Which we are yet discovering

The strength of intentions

The power of intuition

Of conscious awareness

In practice of mindfulness

Of possibilities in our potential

In the movements of stillness

In the stillness of moves

In the silence of meditation

All, in this journey within

Betwixt inside outside & beyond…

Hope is here to stay

Today I share not one but two different scenarios as poems, I have written for the following verses on hope. 

Do share your thoughts on it.

“Her eyes wander to find him

Amongst a sea of faces

Knowing he is there somewhere

Hope is here to stay “

The first love

She was a teenager  in love

For the very first time

She felt the joy

To express with all her heart

The joy of being with another

Two hearts  so full of love

In a world all their own.

He wrote her poems

And read each one out loud

It was an idyllic love

Too good to be true

And in time life happened

And they parted ways

But the feelings still the same 

Etched in memories

And never forgotten

No matter the ravages of time. 

Yet life never stops for any one.

Life brings in beautiful moments

That makes life worth living 

People come people go

But memories, last at eternity…

The Mother

She is old and wrinkled

Yet oft her memories rush

To that fateful day

When a trip to the beach

With friends and family

Changed her life forever.

For as the sun set on that day

In that crowded beach 

She lost her only son

And the meaning to live on.

And to this day,  in every crowd

Her eyes look out

Searching for her little son 

In a sea of faces

No matter the river of time …

Life has its own challenges

For every life in the living

But hope is unending

For hope is here to stay.

Miracle of Autumn

Miracle of autumn

Colours changing season

Rich burnt orange rust

Fill leaves of green as they fall

As if announcing arrival of fall

Signaling animals and birds

To prepare ahead of the cold

Of winters frost on the anvil

To brace the changing weather.

A season of love & embrace

Of  long walks with loved ones.

Of long nights and shorter days

That heads through to winter.

Make the best of the changes.

Strength of the soul

A glimpse of the intangible

Is often visible through signs

Like the strength of the soul

Appears in true forgiveness

In letting go of  fear of failure

In ability to start all over again

In letting go of negativity

In ability to center the self

In letting go of revenge mentality

In the ability to share kindness

In sensing the lightness of being

In awareness of the bigger picture.

The strength of the soul shines through.

Haste makes waste

There is always time

Time never is lack

Lack of patience

Is lack of time management

In lack of time

There is hurry

To make things happen fast.

Without deliberation

Confusion and tension sets in

Building up pressure

Creating doubts & distress

In the lack of coordination

A recipe for hasty decisions

Creating more waste 

Of time, energy and resources

Along the way.

So think through

Haste not waste not.

What’s your energy like today?

I came across these lines this morning…

We either make ourselves miserable ,
or we make ourselves strong.
The amount of work is the same

— Carlos Castaneda —

Questions for the self

What are your thoughts like?

What is the work you do making you feel?

What is the energy  you sense ?

Are you  feeling strengthened by it?

Your answers will reveal much to you.

Listening is healing

Often we are so full of ourselves.

So focussed on our thoughts

On our ways and deeds

That we forget to pay attention.

There is a world beyond us.

That’s full of promise

Of possibilities  in it’d potential

To help and heal us

Only if we truly take our time

To listen  well and be there .

Listen to understand and care

Listen to learn and know

Listen to explore the unsaid

Listen keen and deep.

The answers to many of life’s challenges is in listening

Listen  well, it  heals one another.

Share

The way you move,

The way you write

The way you dance

The way you talk

The way you live

Share much about you

Express without fear

It’s good for you.

Remember…

Sharing at times can make you vulnerable

But it can open you up to the strength within.

Timeless thoughts

Our thoughts make us

Who we are

The way we think

Becomes us.

Our thoughts are powerful

For they travel far

Thoughts make all the difference.

Think well

Live well.
