I dream in vividness of vibrance
Of colours in all shades and hues
All things bright and beautiful
Of beauty & lightness of being
With the joyful spring in my step
And a grateful heart, I choose to paint
My thoughts today…
Sending Hope & healing
And Good energies to one and all!

In the living is the learning
As knowledge builds its foundation
Life keeps changing its path
In the living is the acknowledging
Of the unknown truths of life & living.
In the living is adaptability
To the changing tides in time
In the living is the sensing
Of what makes life worth living
In the living is the engagements
To living life to its fullest potential
And therein is the wisdom from living.
Savvy
Engagement is an involvement
It involves committment.
Engagement is an action
It involves doing in action
Engagement is a focused interest
Engagement can be a moral obligation.
To do whatever is possible.
And be genuinely involved.
What are your daily engagements?
What keeps you engaged in them?

Have always fancied the flight of birds
Dancing with the winds soaring the skies.
To far off lands & destination unknown.
With th spirit and soul free
And yet…
What has mere wings got to do with flying?
To most it would seem everything
For without wings there is no flight
But then to truly fly is to reach beyond.
Free of being bound!
Beyond knowing is imagination
Imagination is a journey without wings
For with your thoughts you fly free
And tirelessly into infinity
For wings may sense the weight of the journey
But heartfelt intention can take you afar
As far as you aim to go
Across dimensions of space & time.
Exploring possibilities and more.
So it’s not what you have
But what you do with what you have
It’s all in your passionate will & intention
What you choose to accomplish in time

Life life Lovingly!
Someone asked me what advice would I share with my child…
I would simply share the below two pieces of advice that I came across, not only with my child, but to anyone who cares to follow.
As it will go a long way in the journey of life .
Two simple
formula of life
“Don’t make any
close relation
without full understanding…!
And don’t break
any close relation
with small misunderstanding..
Very thoughtfully said!
Life is beautiful in consideration & responses than kneejerk reactions.
Life is all about taking time to live and love but also to understand.
Life is precious and every relationship has a reason to be. Even if it’s just for a season it is meant to last its time.
Let’s never forget that…
So let’s value life, value relationships
And live life lovingly!!
Savvy
Like the sky above,
Be expansive,
Unfurl your imagination,
Extend yourself, reach beyond knowing.
Like the earth below,
Be connected,
Yet stay rooted to the ground,
Have the steadfastness like the earth.
Like the fire within,
Be spirited,
Let your passion speak,
Explore life and give it your all.
Savvy
Life is a mystical journey.
Every now is as fresh as never before
And yet deeply rooted in yesterday.
In fact, every now is embedded
With the bygone and the future.
What I learn in this now
Is interweaved in eternity.
In these waves of understanding
Is life’s evolving ways for the being.
In letting go of the unnecessary
Is the space and freedom to be
All that one can be.
Every lesson that comes by,
Makes an imprint that matters
Somewhere, somehow.
Savvy
They say it’s what you do that matters
But it’s the thought that counts
Can we choose one thought over other
Yes we can in mindfulness
Being aware is the first step
The choice rests with you
For you are your thoughts
As much as your deeds .
Savvy
Between the then and the yet to come
Is the moment of now.
Honour this space.
The bygone no longer matters;
The future is yet unknown.
Be present in this moment
Of infinite possibilities
For what is unfolding is in this now;
Life is truly here in this now.
In thoughts, words and deeds,
Attend to this space that is —
Honour the beauty of the betwixt.

Whenever I come across a heart touching action, or a prose ,a poem or quote I will be sharing it here in this series…
Some people make the world a better place by their thoughts words and deeds...
Sharing a touching story of truths of life and living…
THE HAPPIEST MAN
When Billionaire Femi Otedola in a telephone interview, was asked by the radio presenter, “Sir what can you remember made you the happiest man in life?”
Femi said: “I have gone through four stages of happiness in life and finally I understood the meaning of true happiness.”
The first stage was to accumulate wealth and means. But at this stage I did not get the happiness I wanted.
Then came the second stage of collecting valuables and items. But I realized that the effect of this thing is also temporary and the lustre of valuable things does not last long.
Then came the third stage of getting big projects. That was when I was holding 95% of diesel supply in Nigeria and Africa. I was also the largest vessel owner in Africa and Asia. But even here I did not get the happiness I had imagined.
The fourth stage was the time a friend of mine asked me to buy wheelchair for some disabled children. Just about 200 kids.
At the friend’s request, I immediately bought the wheelchairs. But the friend insisted that I go with him and hand over the wheelchairs to the children. I got ready and went with him.
There I gave these wheel chairs to these children with my own hands. I saw the strange glow of happiness on the faces of these children. I saw them all sitting on the wheelchairs, moving around and having fun.
It was as if they had arrived at a picnic spot where they are sharing a jackpot wining.
I felt real joy inside me. When I decided to leave one of the kids grabbed my legs. I tried to free my legs gently but the child stared at my face and held my legs tightly. I bent down and asked the child: Do you need something else?
The answer this child gave me not only made me happy but also changed my attitude to life completely. This child said: “I want to remember your face so that when I meet you in heaven, I will be able to recognize you and thank you once again”.
What would you be remembered for after you leave that office or place?
Will anyone desire to see your face again where it all matters?
Think! Live your life in a manner that others desire to see your face again.
When we care to truly listen
We can hear our soul’s calling.
In the journey of life
Every one of us
Has a unique pathway
That is our reason to be
That makes us feel fulfillment
That speaks to us with all of our heart
That makes us see the signs
How far would you go
To find your pathway?
Savvy
No matter what paths life takes you
No matter the circumstances you are in
No matter how tedious the journey
It’s all in you, and the attitude you have
And choose to cultivate in time
Life can challenge or you can change
Your way of seeing life
You can create joy or sorrow
As you choose to see life.
As you wish to live life
It’s all in you!
Savvy
If you are a leader…
Credit your teams wins to them
Celebrate their individual wins
Appreciate their work
Acknowledge their perseverance
Applaud their dedication
Empathize with them by listening well.
Encourage their efforts with training
Reward them with recognition.
Value their perspectives
Be a guide so they can follow
For without a follower there is no leader.

Beyond the sum of our senses
Exists a field of potential,
Embodying possibilities.
Beyond fear and doubts
Exists a space for courage,
Emitting energy in hope and faith.
Myriad thoughts may fill our minds;
All is an illusion in the imagination.
If we wish to see it so,
There is always more
Beyond the dark; envisage the light
Unlearn the lessons taught,
Invoke the curiosity of your inner child,
Step back and see the bigger picture.
Rays of light will find their way!
