Every night sky
Infinite stars twinkle
There is wisdom in their light
To shine from wherever you are
Each star emits their own starlight
Together they fill up the night sky
With the wonders of a starry night.

Wisdom of Change
The Desert Wisdom
With the singing sands
Below the feet
Where the winds blows
Tuning in to the changes
Slipping in through
The sands of time
Dancing in the dunes
Is the wisdom of the flow
Nothing is what it seems
The desert tests the spirit
To transform the being
The desert teaches…
The many ways of survival.
Through the wisdom in change.

Souls Purpose
A writers soul emerges through the words written .
A painters soul emanates from between the colours in the canvas
The potters soul is afire in the fingers shaping the clay.
The singers soul breathes in the sounds created by the voice.
The dancers soul flows through in every movement in the moments.
The Soul is a restless wanderer
It breathes free not in captivity,
But in every movement of creation.
It cannot be fathomed or even sensed
Other than in the light of passion in the being.
For then the soul shines in its own light
For it has found its purpose of being.

Power of Sounds
There is something about sound
That the world again is waking up to these days…
Wherever you go
You hear the sounds of music
Healing through harmony
And the magic in the melodies.
Reviving and regenerating us
All is in the energy of the sounds.
Sounds that move us within & beyond
All effects of resonance in our cells
Sensing the sounds in stillness
Sensing in the movements too…
Music heals the spirit & soul.
Such is the power of sound.

Unbound…
Borders marked on maps
In time get etched onto our minds
But our heart knows not borders
Hope the heart leads
For then, the way appears
To bond without being bound
To fly free like a bird.
Unbound…

Sometimes comments to your posts can be a fodder for thoughts in synthesis…
I thank my good friend Fredrick from Katiemiafrederick.wordpress.com for the inspiring comment 🕊️🙏🕊️ on my yesterdays blog In flights of fancy /
A part of this poem began as a reply comment that turned into a post.
In flights of fancy…
A flying bird’s perspectives are different from the ones on land.
Here is one such inspiration from up above…
You see states and nation across
I see endless land from up above
You see borders with rivalry
I see nature in different forms
From up close and afar.
I see humans with humanity
And at times without it too…
All of my life I have travelled
Across many a continents
In flights of freedom
High up in the air
With the wind in my wings
The sun moon & stars
And the sky for company
Flying high and low
A wanderer I am
And whenever I am tired
I choose to land
When and where I please.
There is no stopping me…🕊️

Finding You
When you lose your sense of Self
You find yourself
©Savvy Raj
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.

Part of something bigger
Every time you connect
With nature in any form
You realize…
You are part of something bigger
That there is so much more
Of spaces between the steps
You acknowledge…
The light of life and living
The strength of the interconnects.
You become aware
In feeling & sensing the mystical in you…
And the potential of you in the universe
How much you matter…
You are part of something bigger!

Strengthen your feet
Sitting for long hours at work can be rather stressful for those who have sedentary work. In such cases taking good care of your feet health is very important for your heart and overall health.
What can you do besides wearing comfortable shoes, soaking your feet in warm salt water after work,
massaging your feet from time to time.
However when at work you can
incorporate a simple practice of taking a short walk every one hour to break monotony and reduce the impact of long hours of sitting in a chair.
As a Ballroom dance teacher I used some simple props for my students to help strengthen their feet.
Elevating your feet when ever possible, can reduce pressure on the blood vessels, lowering fatigue and release stress.
One is simply rolling a tennis ball under your feet for a few times in a day to release the strain and
tension.
Another easy way is to
have a small terry towel under
your feet and to try to lift it by
scrunching your toes.lt helps
tone, stretch & ease your feet
muscles.
They are both easy to carry and can help you do a feet workout as you work.
Do try and let me know if it helps.

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

Nurture Trees
When you plant & nurture trees
You nurture the world
For trees nurture life.
In thankfulness for nature
That survives all odds
The living trees
Are our pillars of support
Towards sustainability
Releasing oxygen for the planet
Every one of us owes everyone of them so much.
Thankfulness & Gratitude 🙏
To the kindred spirit of the soulful trees.

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
