Twilight

Twilight expresses the moment of change
In the most gentle of ways.
Change that allows
Change that accepts
Change that acknowledges…
that transition takes time.
It also holds moments of awe and wonder.

Yet change is rarely felt this way…
For change can be the difference
Between the dark and light
Of the night and day.


Humans are hardwired
To fear change in doubt and  uncertainty
But change is the only constant.

However… humans are also wired in hope
To trust transitions of change is hopefulness
And hope is here to stay.

River of time

How far have we come
From the many versions of ourselves
In this river of time
Where like water, that flows onwards
Time can never be visited backwards…
Only in memories
Held within the hearts & minds
Reminding us of the paths traveled in time.

Life continues to evolve in every now.

As life flows on …

Colouring  itself

Along the way.

I share this above digital artwork here from back in time…when AI  prompting and image creation was very nascent.

Way Of Peace

The way of peace is not in war & conflicts

The way of peace is in heartful awareness, as much as in mindful living.

And for peace to sustain itself…
We need to evolve with awareness
We need to recognize the truth of our interdependence.

We need to adapt ourselves
To the changing times.
It will take a realization of the interconnects between
individual well being & collective wellbeing.

Anf it certainly needs acceptance and aligning with the dynamics that peace brings forth …
For peace needs embodiment through conscious choice & practice as a way of life.

Make the way of peace

A way of life.

Birthing in the now

Your birth is not the only time you are born

You are born in every moment of awareness

You are born in every  conscious breath.

You are born in the pain and the pleasures of living life.

You are born in every deed of compassion & kindness.

You are born in the joy of both inclusion and expansion.

You are born in the moments of heartfelt connections.

The truth is you can birth yourself in every now.

Align your breath with presence.

SPARKS OF LIGHT

There are times we sense, how words are sparks of light.

From life and lifetimes lived

Of learnings from being you

That is actually meant to light hearts

Near and far…

We simply need to trust, for words know and find their way.

Keep sparking & sharing your light ✨️ 🙏

Books are life

This morning I started my day with a beautiful book gifted by my daughter to me called… ‘Light from many Lamps.

I was inspired just sensing the light of life in each chapter…

So yes, ‘Books are life’ and I have, had and hope I continue to have all the energy to read some more…

What is your recent read?

Who are you?

Beyond the name, I am the space between the breaths, the sum of my senses.


Beyond words, a witness & the resonance of infinite possibility.

Beyond deeds, I am the dance of life…
Beyond  speech, I am the breath that experiences life.


Life is a gift, granted in this lifetime.
I ground myself in gratitude to simply be.  🙏

Join in with me for a  moment of  alignment…
With the body, mind, heart, and spirit
That houses and helps in evolving the soul.
Infinite thanks to the parts
That weaves us into a whole.  🙏

Ask the self, ‘ Who are you?’

What are you feeding your mind?

Master your mind,” they say,
“Before it masters you.”


Acknowledge the truths of life,
For the mind creates
Countless thoughts.


Know the value of mindfulness.
Being mindful is about self-awareness…
To master the mind,
Master your thoughts.


Become aware of this now.
Whatever this moment is,
Sense it, and breathe in it.
Feel it, and be alive in it.


For the truth lives in every moment.
What you decide to do in this “now”
Has the power to change and rearrange
Your state of being.


Life is precious.
Have faith and trust.
Stay hopeful with every breath,
For the truth is, you can.
After all, the mind works
On exactly what you feed it.

Making sense of it all… 

Experience eats degrees for breakfast.

Technology tosses experience and degrees topsy turvy.

Al turns skills redundant and age immaterial.


Wisdom turns knowledge into learning.

For learning never stops.

Humility allows for growth…

Making sense of it all.

The Art Of Noticing

In every now

There is so much to note

Notice the bigger picture

The grand plan of nature.

Notice the sky

Holding the sun & the clouds,

The moon & the stars.

Notice the transitions

The fleeting nature

The pain & pleasures of life

Appear and disappear.

Notice the expansive infinite

Widening in your thoughts

Notice your breath dance,

Finding its rhythms.

Notice how the movements

And the stillness therein,

Are all part of the dance.

All in time

Every thought has its own flow
Every word finds its own space
Every space has its own synchrony
Every sound its own frequency
Every element, its own energy
Lets enjoy the space between the steps.
And acknowledge the  harmony in the synergy…

All in time.

Meet me in the middle

This poem will resonate with those in strong relationships  that stands the test of time and yet may find themselves challenged and at crossroads with differences in thoughts and opinions. Pretty much most who have experienced life together will find themselves in such predicaments time and time again.

In relationships when you are unable to see eye to eye, where past misses surfaces or future  expectations sideline the precious present, perhaps this poem can be a reminder of how far you have traveled  together to reach here.

All is not lost just yet… if you could only meet in the middle. For the strongest relationships survive in empathic understanding of each other through the thick & thin.

Meet me in the middle,
With an open mind,
Set aside differences,
We’re the same kind…

Today we may be at crossroads
looking with a different lens
But our hearts beat as one
Like it used to, years ago.
The feelings just the same…

So dearest one, sense it all
Memories are meant
To be revisited in time.
Think of how far we have come
And meet me not in the past
Nor in the the future
But right here in the middle
Of this present now.

Inside outside

Inside outside

Quick fixes  are only a band aid.Temporary ways are not the answer. It is about creating a simple routine that is consistent.

Zoom beyond small niggles. See the bigger picture to understand the truths of  reality.Distil it all for a take away.

You are not the problem.

Care for yourself. You can build yourself. Be kind to yourself. Overdoing anything  overwhelms. Choose consistency over intensity.

Change your life for the better by doing something good for yourself .Through small changes that change your relationship with who you are.

Savvy

In reflection…

Real growth isn’t a battle to be won through self-punishment. It is a relationship to be nurtured through self-kindness. In shifting how you relate to yourself through small, daily, consistent choices,perspectives change.

Life transforms from inside out.

Dear Reader,

When things feel out of balance, what is that one quick fix you find yourself reaching for?

And would you choose consistency  over intensity?

And if so in what ways… do share.

Ripples of Reflection

Like drops of water

Creating circles upon ripples

In the vastness of the  ocean of life,

One thought leads to another,

One word finds another,

One deed creates a momentum.

What is common is the energy,

In the ripple of reflections

Sparking creative flows

That finds its own purpose.

For nothing is accidental

Every thing connects

In its own time.

Savvy

From the standpoint  of physics, a ripple doesn’t actually  move the water forward, it moves the energy  through the water…

Likewise our creative and spiritual practices are simply  conductors for channeling deeper universal energy.

This perspective shift acknowledges that timing and alignment  are natural laws  and not coincidences thereby  discards the unnecessary anxieties in trying to force outcomes…

After all we are both the drop of water and the ocean itself.

So if every thought word and deed creates ripples in the vast ocean of your life, what is the nature of the wave you are setting in motion right now?

What happens in space, stays in space.

​Space…

is what I make of it.

​Space allows,

and restrains

all at once.

In every now,

space is filled with infinite possibilities.

​Abundance.

Potential.

All truths,

as I perceive them in space.

​Space is fluid.

Space is alive.

​Space…

is what you make of it.

​What you sense in space,

stays in space.

What happens in space,

stays in space.

​Space is wonder.

An expansive phenomenon.

​The feeling of space

for you,

for me

is deeply different.

So is its need.

​Is there a divide at all

between physics and metaphysics?

Aren’t they interwoven,

deeply interconnected?

​It is only a question

of how open we are

to understanding space,

and the possibilities

in its potential.

​It is all

In, around,

and beyond.
