Ladders that lead

I wrote this piece with respect for so many entrepreneurial spirits and their enterprise. Who catapult to fame and recognition but then often find themselves unable to sustain themselves. And the heart-wrenching truth is that not all have the resilience and the capability to bounce back.

But life is a circle and change is the order of nature.

In the toughest of rounds

Keep the faith and patience

And trust time to show the way…

Ladders that lead

The climb is a chase, but the fall is steep.
So persevere on beyond just the achievement.
Be tenacious in ascent & resilient in descent.

Ladders that lead you higher in the name of career success, fame and glory lead you to so much more than just that. As you climb each step gradually, you inch closer to your dreams.

You are chalking your life in every move. And then in the pinnacle of your success…
You realize you have reached your goal.

Here is the point of discernment
As you observe, check the signs around you
Are you ready to play the game of survival?
You will receive less warmth here than ever before.
Your colleagues will change their minds
Think twice before supporting you.
Fear not and keep on going
Stay mindful in the moment.

Ladders are meant to go up and down. If you have climbed up you must know to establish your survival modes else there is the ladder that brings you down.
But it’s twice much harder to bear, on the way down than the challenges you face on the way up.

What do you do when ladders do the disappearing act?

Sometimes the ladder vanishes
And there is no clear way to step down
Except for a blind leap of faith.
There may be darkness and uncertainty
Sadness and silence
Shame and blame
All devastating effects
Of loss and failure
Yet the trick is to go on
Correcting your ways
Learning from the experience
And letting go of past foibles.

Mistakes make you more aware
Hurt a little and you are cautious
In pain there is understanding
It’s what to watch out for!

Paths that may seem easy
May get you embroiled in complexities.
Watch yourself along the way
For the journey takes all of you!

You will encounter much support on the way up
But once you are catapulted into the halls of fame…

You will find many critics and judgments
From those watching with interest
How you are managing it from here.
With all those judgemental eyes on you
One slip is a sure fire miss and costs a lot!

Watch your every stepand move
For you are being followed
Here is where your resilience is tested!
Stay true to who are.
Look ahead as you trust yourself.
Paths can appear out of nowhere.✨🙏✨

Journey On

This poem is truly special to me. For one it was written during my first solo trip to Greece.

I am thankful to Spillwords.com for publishing my poem.

Much of what I describe here, I felt while I was there, as if I had been there, and I deeply sensed it all in that journey.

Journey on… 🙏

There comes a time

The Dance of the Self Arranging Universe

How intriguing are the intersections in interconnects…

In synergy of the energy
Of the harmony in the synchrony
Of life and the living
Of spaces between the steps
The spectre of the spheres
The realms of the cosmos
From one to another dimensions
And what is beyond the known
The illusions in the making.

Yet to understand more
Is to acknowledge the dance
Of patterns of possibilities
Shape shifting formations
Arranging and rearranging
In the infinite potential.

Watch this spectre of the spheres, the dance of the planets Jupiter and Mars around the sun…

On Silence

Silence is the language of the mind in introspection.
It is the language of self analyzation .
It gives one time for self improvement.
The pauses in between can change the course of the situation.
It has many meanings.
Silence is so powerful

When the mind becomes still
Learning to silence even this silent language
Then it fills the soul
With bliss n harmony.
It becomes
A celebration of Silence.

Travel on…

The journey of imagination
Takes me into the beyond
From nothing to something
From something to everything
And in this travel is limitlessness
In the abundance of possibilities
The unreachables & unattainables
Becoming sublime along the way
Traveling on, with the inate potential
Of infinite beginnings of imagination.

Journey lines

Every path is unique to itself
Every journey creates it’s own pathways
Each phase and stage of life
Enveloping in itself creating patterns and yet,
Embedded and enmeshed
Are the journey lines in the flow..

Sky above, earth below, and fire within…

As I stand here,

Under the canopy of twinkling stars in the sky,

Sensing the nourishing earth under my feet,

The fire ablaze, in the spirit of my soul.

The fire within, I nurture

In passion that fuels, my soul

A purpose that ignites, and a will to succeed,

A heart that beats, a dream to be freed.

Watching the sky above, clouds floating by,

Like a bird soaring, I choose to fly

I wonder awed by infinite possibilities,

Until the setting sun, draws the moon at night.

I feel the fertile ground

Sense the abundance of nature

A garden of life,

In every breathing life, is a universe within,

Bountiful beauty, to inspire dreams.

Sky above, earth below, and fire within,

A journey of life, with a prayer in hope

To meet the mornings, the awaiting purpose of life.

With my Spirit afire in my beating heart.

Cosmos

Countless spheres of infinity
Rotating revolving in their preordained path.
The hows and whys still remaining a mystery
Curious minds continue to decipher

The pieces of mystery from eons unknown
Solved n unsolved puzzles of Nature.
From the stark to the  subtle
From everything to nothing or
The other way round
The search is on…
In this journey on.

Ease into the moment

Take that well deserved break  

There is really nothing at stake 

Take a moment to just pause and not lead 

To breathe in ease ,and not rush without heed

Have a seat … relax and chill 

 Watch the world  go by  savouring this moment now at your will

You rushed enough, to more than keep up with time

Time is eternal … is wisdom sublime

Sense the moment that is the Now.

Future will be fine ,every moment just care to love

It as it is, knowing  that it is this present

That matters in this very moment …:))

Beneath the Orange Sun…

Inspiration for Intention

Beneath the orange sun
I see rays of possibilities
Clearly forming patterns
That speak to me to draw
Out the truth of my soul.

Beneath the nurturing tree
I witness the quiet calm
Feel the gentle breeze,
Am hearing the buzzing bee
And the rhythm of my beating heart…

Beneath the golden moon
I sense the vividity of my heart
Of love that bonds boundlessly
As gleams of hope shines forth
Evoking abundance in my soul.

Beneath the infinite sky
I am open to receive
All the good that is,
And cross paths with it today
I choose to live with intention.

A Spread of Cheer!

Sharing one of my earlier paintings today,
‘A Spread of Cheer! ‘

I personally love seeing it once again for its vibrant bouquet of colours.

Paintings have a way of depicting the emotions the painter carries…

Can imagine the joy and recreate the moment of bliss and wonder while I was painting it years ago.

Here’s to Health, Joy, Love, Happiness and all the positives in life …

A dot called now

Sharing Words of wisdom … from my mother Anjana Radha… A beautiful thought for the day 🙂

‘The “Now” is a dot. in the line – of life. Without touching the dot we cannot connect the past to the future. Just Be in the Now to witness a beautiful connection.The NOW is always present . Like so many dots form a line so many’ Now’s shape life to a beautiful past and a hopeful future. Our conscious awareness gives it meaning and purpose.’
Enjoy the moment:)

Unique pathways

We are uniquely ordained by nature yet so very interconnected that we can find versions of ourselves time and time again as reflections in the resonance.

For what we see in another is a reflection of our own lives, that is unique yet self similar in manifestations .

We all duel and pass through these reflections in our lives at different times in our own special ways.

Every life has its own reason to be. A purpose of being. Every life has its own story Every life unfolds in its own way.

What is it to dance?

We dance to let go, To enjoy this now. And celebrate it and find ourselves again.
In awareness is a flow, that merges in harmony to synch in with this now, in artistry of the moves… this is the truth of what it is, to dance!
