An unrealized dream…

An unrealized dream
An unexplored adventure
A challenging adversity
A twist of fortune
An unexpected detour
An unwanted influence
An undervalued feeling
A undermined self-esteem
A slew of slights
A spate of illness
A foreboding feeling
An unfinished business
An unforgivable mistake
An unfortunate moment
All may seem reason enough
But the reality is these are excuses
Remind your life happens.
Time is moving its course
Buck up and reset your path
For you know in your heart
You are enough for you.

The Mountain Beckons…

Across this desert of life
There is a mountain that beckons you.
That emits calm.
It invites you into its fold
Although the path is treacherous and tricky
You will lead yourself to it 
For in its wake,  the light of soul blooms
Your spirit awakens
And your body regenerates.
As you reach its pinnacle
You look onwards and upwards
You see the light of a thousand stars
Shining on you, their cosmic lights

There is nothingness
And yet everything-ness.
A feeling of calm and composure
Envelopes you in its presence
That soothes your soul.
The air filled with an ambient  pure fragrance
Of the mystical flowers  as you sense it in resonance.
Healing you
And empowering you,

With the strength of stability in its sureness.

Map in my veins

The map in my veins

Lead to those unknown paths

Across the world

To places and spaces

I was  meant to go

To connect with those

I was to meet

Its all ordained  I can tell

Now as I look back

Each relevant to whole

Emerging & merging

In this story of life

The pen with words I weild now

Yields through as witness 

To learnings  and experiences

Leaving an imprint

In the footprints of time.

Weathering the storms

Wither not yourself away

Weathering the storms

Every life finds itself

In the whirlpool of chaos.

And often unfortunately so.

Pick yourself up

Dust away the doubts

Don your best attitude

And look ahead

At a not so distant time

And trust in yourself

For storms precede the calm.

 

Sense the strength of spirit

Moving towards your purpose

Know every storm has one

Find yourself on your way

To fulfilling your soul purpose.

Valley of Reactivity

Between & betwixt  spaces

Of pause and activity

 In the thinking and doing

Overcome the challenges

Of the conflicts of being.

Move on from valleys of reactions

From impulsive actions

That stems from assumptions

Reach out in responsiveness

Being positively intentional

Leading to clarity

In the deeper listening.

Seeds of Consciousness

Seeds of consciousness

We are all born with them

Love, and kindness

Care & compassion

Our feelings and emotions

Our heart shows the way

In our thoughts & our actions

It’s upto us , in our lives

To find them & nurture them.

Seeding Wisdom

The seed bears wisdom untold

From humble beginnings

Emerges immense possibilities

What seems a non starter

Can be a gamechanger.

And yet…

Growth has many phases

In the course of its life

Through the ups & downs

The chaos gives way to clarity

From the immature to maturity

The tree stands tall

Embracing the changes .

The seed to a tree

Teaches the wisdom of patience,

As it bears fruits in time.

Power of now

Every minute is precious

Every now matters

Every moment is new

Make the most of it

Life is what you make of it.

Choose  well.

And reap well in time.

Thoughts matter

It’s not the words

But what we think

It’s not just the deeds

But how we do it

Our thoughts make us.

Or break us.

In every  now.

Thoughts matter.

What do you think?

A reminder

Digital Art : Savvy Raj

Great to have garden

Tending to each plant

Makes us happy

And yet the world seems lonely

For we have forgotten

The power of community.

Of strength in the interconnects

Of unity in togetherness

The bends without breaking

For in tending to our own garden

We forget the paths in between

The You and I

We forget  the give and take

We  forget care for one another

We forget  sharing the joys & woes

Of life and living

Instead we sit alone

In our self built fences & walls.

We think we are happy alone

Little realizing the effects

Of being lonely…

Wisdom Of Trees

Trees store secrets

Echoing in the echelons

In their barks and trunks

In the leaves and stems

In them is a wealth of wisdom

Of times gone by

To discover for the future…

Nurture nature

Save trees.

Fragility of life.

Life is like that

Fragile and fragmented

There is much left unsaid undone

There is much left incomplete

For we are not perfect beings

Fragility is a truth of our life

But life continues  ….

However much we may think we have given our best

There is always an expectation

Some how somewhere

That is yet left unfulfilled

There is always something more

That we need to have done.

A battle we need to have fought

A voice we should have raised

A devil we need to have dared

And annihilated

It happens in one way or another.

But we can only learn

By living our life forward

And while unfortunately we cannot go and undo all the past

We certainly can empower ourself

To rise no matter the storms .

And right the wrongs in time.

Leaving the world a little better  than before .

I wrote this as a heartfelt offering of support and encouragement in  hope to those going through or remembering a traumatic past.

While life is fragile

Hope is here to stay .

What is the colour of your thoughts today ?

Question yourself

Am I thinking well?

If I were to choose a colour

What colour would my thoughts  be in this now?

Are my feelings cold or warm?

Are my emotions overflowing or in balance.

Is my spirit shackled or free?

Are my thoughts racing or calming?

Your answers will speak to you,

Of your state of being.

If ever you feel the need to introspect and self regulate you can use these questions that came to me today to do a self check, as to where you are placed in this spectrum of life in the now.

Writing here every day on WordPress has drawn many readers who have messaged me their challenges and it is a privilege to connect, meet and also coach some of them.

As a writer and a life coach, I have been intentionally motivating with my thoughts over the years. I find joy in writing my heart out and yet be able to empower myself and my readers with positive thoughts.  I believe it makes a difference and I hope to continue making these small yet positive impacts through my works, be it  through art or words.

Feel free to share colours of your thoughts today here.

And I hope you have a beautiful  time wherever in the world you are.

On Wisdom

What to speak of wisdom?

Tommorows wisdom

Is open to learn

From the errors in this now.

In the listening, in the living

In the feeling in the sensing.

So much to understand…

Question remains are we open

to acknowledge  the misses,

as a part of being human ?

Are we ready to receive

from these experiences…

Seeking wisdom in the lessons.

Hope is here to stay

Today I share not one but two different scenarios as poems, I have written for the following verses on hope. 

Do share your thoughts on it.

“Her eyes wander to find him

Amongst a sea of faces

Knowing he is there somewhere

Hope is here to stay “

The first love

She was a teenager  in love

For the very first time

She felt the joy

To express with all her heart

The joy of being with another

Two hearts  so full of love

In a world all their own.

He wrote her poems

And read each one out loud

It was an idyllic love

Too good to be true

And in time life happened

And they parted ways

But the feelings still the same 

Etched in memories

And never forgotten

No matter the ravages of time. 

Yet life never stops for any one.

Life brings in beautiful moments

That makes life worth living 

People come people go

But memories, last at eternity…

The Mother

She is old and wrinkled

Yet oft her memories rush

To that fateful day

When a trip to the beach

With friends and family

Changed her life forever.

For as the sun set on that day

In that crowded beach 

She lost her only son

And the meaning to live on.

And to this day,  in every crowd

Her eyes look out

Searching for her little son 

In a sea of faces

No matter the river of time …

Life has its own challenges

For every life in the living

But hope is unending

For hope is here to stay.
