Patience in Perseverance

Sometimes after we have done our very best
We need þatience as much as perseverance
Time heals it all they say
In throes of torment
We need to trust time to pass to a better moment.
We need patience in waiting.

Time has all the answers

Morning Musings

How beautiful  it would  be
If good deeds prevailed in practice.
If altruistic ways can become  a norm
A way of life and living
If  healthy collaboration became a driving  force.
Yet…
Any change is never easy.

To change anything
It has to permeate the psyche
Of the mind in acceptance.
Then there is transformation.


Nothing lasting happens by force
For force gives way to another mightier force in time
Trust time in patience & perseverance.

Everything  happens in time.
Time shows the way
As time has all the answers.

Footprints

Leave footprints if you must .
On the sands of time in trust
Just remember ….
No footprint is permanent

All is a game
like the tides that tame
even the strongest surfer.
Eternal to all is time and nothing else
And sparking in the cosmos we are all just wayfarers.

Tread softly
Love authentically
Live lovingly
Behave empathically
Speak truthfully
Move consciously
Grow gratefully!

Choose well

Choose well
You are way better, way more,
Than what you think & understand of you.
There is much that only you can choose to do.
Choose to live your life lovingly!
Choose to be purposeful!
Choose empathy than criticism.
Choose self respect and freedom to be.

The faster you understand yourself And accept being who you truly are,
And choose to better yourself to be the best version of yourself…
The closer you are to being truly happy!

Vortex

Image Credits : A Painting by ©Savvyraj

Power of thoughts stirs a creative force

Of patterns formed in the dynamics of fluidity .

As they move towards a vortex in space

Still malleable in their pliability.

Random impression in the expression

Until the next emanating thoughts give a shape unto itself .

Suspended in the Vortex in time, in their own circles of conviction.

The vortex is a whirl, never static, an energy unto itself.

In the vortex of life … care to witness the patterns that emanate

From that great artist consummate

Creations so unique, in no cell is design that is a duplicate.

The simplicity of the creative flow that is so hard to emulate.

A free flow…

An experimental poem

Yesterday evening, I asked my mother sitting besides me and sipping her tea, to share a few random words that came to her mind.

These are what she shared in the same order as she shared.

Time, Eternal, Free, Freedom, Connection, Heart, Destiny, Love, Emerging, Twinkle, Abundance, Garnering, Gather, Depth, Stardust, Voyage Spirit

Here is what I imagined in the dance of these words…

When Love is Destiny

Emerging in eternal time
Destiny twinkles on stardust
Garnering connections of  hearts
Voyaging free in the spirit of freedom.
Gathering abundance in the
depth of love.

Make friends with time

Value your life value your time


Remember your uniqueness
Takes its own time to show up.

All happens at the right time
For time knows you..

Make time your friend
Meet it with all of you

Make your life worthwhile
Make friends with time

Inside

What is…

Inside of your mind

Is there peace?

Inside of your heart

Is there love?

Does it feel like a ocean wave

Is flowing through you…

Or a flame of hope rising like a phoenix

Can you hear the distant drums

And dream of hope in the yonder

Or the bells of divine chime within?

Where and how are you

Inside?

On Letting Go

Letting go is never easy

For we are often not ready

Letting go is a courage as much as a necessity

Letting go that which you can’t change

Letting go of yourself beyond the fear

Letting go of insecurity that is holding you back

Letting go of things that no longer serve you

Letting go to create space for something new

Letting go of unnecessary doubts that delay the possibilities

Letting go creates a difference with a lightness of being…

Learn to let your self go

And watch life transform in and around you…

All it takes is letting go

Think of letting go of the spurious

Like a breath taken

How long will you hold it?

Inhale and exhale are part of life

As you inhale, live life

In knowing the exhale

Is but a circle of life.

When Simplicity Speaks

This week for me seems to be a traveling one, for work and pleasure and I am right now in a country where it is both common and fashionable to wear a lot of black. Can you guess which one?

And while you are at it, sharing this particular poem about black and white photography and I think I am co- relating to it literally here. Read on…

On black and white photography.

What is it about the black and the white

That evokes much emotion

In all its simplicity and elegance?

Monochrome has a surreal magic

That captures your attention

Strangely beguiling almost misleading

For it blurs the truths that appear

In the vividity of colour.

Yet it provides a stark definition

Devoid of any colour, yet not lifeless

It emotes through simplicity

Through the play of light and dark

Creating sensibilities and sustaining drama.

Both evocative and enigmatic in its elements

Inspite of the hidden hues.

Retaining charecter.

Reminiscent of old world charm

Of a translucent transparency.

A simplification of the complexity.

A composure of composition.

A completeness of capture.

Ocean of Oneness

In the journey of life
At one point or the other
In arriving to acknowledge
our truths
Comes a realization of our Oneness
Of how we are mere living fractals of life and longings
We are simply waves of light frequencies of resonance & dissonance
Dancing to the tunes
Of the Ocean of Oneness

Life finds a way…

Life is strange
Strange is life
Just like that
Life turns around
Difficult becomes easy
Miseries come to an end
Problems find a solution
Trust in a deliverance
Hope against hope
Keep the faith
Life finds a way

What is travel to you?

To travel
Can be about discovery
Of the old in the new places
Leading you to pathways
That takes you back to your self

To  travel
Can be a sensing of serendipity.
A feeling of  dejavue
A memorable journey
Unexpectedly unto yourself.

To travel
Can be to witness
The stark reality of life
Perhaps a jolt of reality
Of places and people
As they are in comparison to what was once imagination.

To travel
Can be to learn and unlearn
To connect us to this now
With the truths of things
In places we visit
Know and unknown.

Keep traveling  far and near to find yourself a little more every time.

On Spirituality

You can’t talk Spirituality
You got to live it.
Often when life takes you far
Far away from it…


You got to know
The divine that you seek
Is with you in every moment
Your actions thoughts and words
Decides the distance between
You and your spiritual self.
