I wish 😊
To hold the mighty sun in a curl of my fingers
To bask in the warmth of the early morning sun
To delightfully witness the dancing rays of dawn😍
To sense the beauty of a brand new day!

Many paths lead us home…
All the questions come in living;
All the answers are in the living,
And life is happening to you as you strive
And you are sifted in the sieve of life
While you flow or reverse the flow
In every now and then, moving fast or slow
To gain a grounding in the sun.
Are you ready for the race you wish to run?
Care to pause and reflect on these:
Whose choice is it the way you are?
What chances do you have to have it your way?
Who should make the change to what can be?
When can it be the way you want?
Where do you want to be in this now?
And how you can reach there?
Step out your own way
To sense the unfolding of other paths,
To see the effects before the cause,
To choose to smile at destiny’s face.
And that makes all the difference
In finding it all!
One fine day in your own sweet way!.
Savvy
Explore your being!
Dare to explore the magnitude of your being.
Unlock the infinite wisdom you hold within, without knowing.
You have the answers you are seeking;
You are in the right place at the right time.
So, persevere and make the so-called trivial in you valuable.
Make every moment preciously accountable;
Strengthen your being;
Know you are sufficient and self-sustaining.
Just remember,
You are enough for you!

Poems & Emotions
Poems & Emotions
Is there a dividing line
Where both can stand apart
Poems are thoughts from feeling
In sensing is the emotion
Poetry cannot be senseless
For that would make it neaningless.
Even a limerick puts a lot of heart out in rhyme.
To feel and sense the humour in just fives lines.
Trust the verses to see you through life and living.
A rainy day or lazing with a book in the sun.
Writing is a pleasure reading is a joy.
Emotions dance in reading through the verses.
And the feelings wonderfully embedded
In the thinking between the words and spaces.
Yes like us, emotions and poems are inextricable by far…
There is no one without the other.

We will travel far…
An Artwork by Savvy Raj ‘Spectrum of Stars’
We need to come to a place of understanding where
We do not discriminate between man and nature.
We are humans, and we are part of nature.
Our nature makes us who we are as much as nurture does.
We are beautiful in our uniqueness.
We are breath-taking in our magnificence.
We are bound by the very same laws of nature.
We are challenged in its fervour.
We are sanctified in its glory.
We are crucified in its destruction.
We are celebrated for co-creation.
We are complex in our ways of being.
But we are no different from nature.
We are born, we breathe, and we are perishable.
Although full of life we may be, but we are totally accountable
As we are blessed with conscious choice,
Free will and intention.
And that makes way for infinite potential.
We are our own wayfarers in the choices.
We make our own present and future,
Like we made our past.
We are made of stars
And will travel far.

Speaking Pictures 2
She seems calm and composed and at complete ease .
A pretty picture of her face framed by her curly locks.
She seems to know more than she wants to tell
Her smile seems to sense much more as well
Her truth is hers alone, as her lips may seal
Oh! but what all a good capture can reveal.
Our personna is so transparent on the verge
Of Shadows thrown open to light
The inner and outer may merge
And unmask thoughts that may be shut tight.
Shadows of past out in the open today
And capture thoughts held at bay
All it takes to know is a shutters click
In perfect timing of what to shoot & pick

This picture was shared on one of my networks in Social Media and I felt compelled to take a second glance …. the picture spoke much and my pen had to flow to capture the thoughts on this pretty capture.
Light on the dark
Emotions unveiled
Of memories & musings
A photo reveals it all!

Dots to lines in the interconnection

Dots to void of the core in sublimation.

All of you!
What does it take to accept everything that is happening in life as an unfolding mystery?
All of you!
And when that happens,
No storm is unsurmountable,
No pain is unmanageable,
No hurt is unforgivable.
Yes, it takes all of you
To complete this circle of life and living.
And in every step you take towards realization
You are only another step closer to home.
To decide not to stress and focus on things that you may not be in control of is a step towards understanding the meaning of true acceptance as not resigning the self to fate but to accept it as part of the phase in the ebb and flow of tides in life.
A few reflections:
Acceptance is the key when life happens beyond your comprehension.
Action is the key when there is something you sense you understand enough.
Acknowledgement is the key while sharing goodwill in trust and hope.
Appreciation is the key to manifesting abundance.
Accept life as a mystery that will dawn.
All else is history that has gone in the dusk.
All is well in time, always.
This post has come as an afterthought when I came across a particularly poignant story shared by a good friend caught in turmoils of time and yet being brave enough to ease into acceptance and appreciate the good happening around by sending goodwill and hope to those around him in thoughts words and deeds.
I know there are many who put out ‘All of themselves ‘ to brave out the odds every single day …. My salute to such inspiring souls. Stay ever blessed!

Ease into Alignment
A life well-lived
Is more about being well and doing good
Than about doing much
and finding no time to be you
and all that you actually are.
Resonate with your own reserves;
Reach out with the knowledge
That you are enough for you.
Align your posture; let go of tension.
Acknowledge your needs in this moment.
Sense the potential in this now.
To alter the reality of this moment,
To make a positive difference in your ways,
To pursue your passions,
To love well, to enjoy life,
You need to create a balance between
What you can do and what you are doing.
Sometimes, the tilts are unavoidable,
And then, life takes care of itself.
But, it always helps to not tilt the balance
By overdoing, over controlling, overindulging,
Overstepping and overshadowing your own self.
Aim to balance the holding back and the letting go
With discretion and discernment
Of conscious intentions in awareness.
Modern maladies are mostly self-inflicted
Due to excess of thought, action and deed.
With awareness, your own free will
Can be your best ally in understanding
That freedom and responsibility go hand in hand.
And soon you will reach a level…
Where you feel grounded
And, yet, light as a feather in flight.
Make sense of the choices you make in every now;
It does matter after all.
You have one life.
Live it well.
Because you can!

Spectrums of learning
Keep Smiling From The Heart!
Keep Smiling from the heart!
It’s truly a wonderful way to live inside out
There is a lot in life to be thankful for
Sending such an intention outward
is an unending hope, that life never hardens
the living with all our heart & soul.
Savvy Raj
Nothing more nothing less.
In a world of assumptions and perceptions
In a world of make believe and gratifications.
In a world of false notions and proclamations.
In a world of judgments and contradictions.
It helps ever so often
To invest in our precious time.
To center our wavering thoughts
To balance our movements
To still our restless spirit
To calm our frayed nerves
To choose our own words.
If only to realise we are
Nothing more nothing less.
As we are truly in it all together.
Connected cells as different entities.
We are all made of the same matter
And all is a matter of energy.
Nothing more nothing less.
In seeing beyond the sheaths of skin.
In peeling of the layers of conditioning.
Moving flowing blending converging.
Sense it if you will, with a subtlety of being.
Nothing more nothing less.
What we speak can become our truth.
What we project can be our destiny.
What we assume become our realities.
What we think is perhaps who we are.
Nothing more nothing less.

Circle of Thoughts:11
A vision a verse by Savvy Raj
Steering of thoughts is a conscious movement
To choose the thoughts we wish to focus
Is discarding a lot of thoughts in deliberation
And finding the ones to concentrate upon.

Step out of your own way!
Often, we question our being.
Often, we wrangle with our past.
Often, we wonder about our future.
It is human nature to think and question.
Thoughts have a way
At times to get the better of us,
To stall the imminent possibilities,
To create unwanted confusion and chaos.
Allow yourself then
To step out of your own way.
Allow your purpose to unravel,
To unfold its path.
Steer yourself away from doubts and despair.
Arm yourself with hope and trust.
Arm yourself with assurance and appreciation.
Steer yourself away from false notions.
Arm yourself with power of positive actions.
Arm yourself with tools for a new direction.
And only then, the purpose of your being
Will begin to manifest in your way
As you learn to continue to
Step out of your own way!
The title of this poem comes from reading a contemplative article by my friend Deb Helfrich. She mentions the need to step out of our own way, at times, to appreciate what we have. So, thank you, Deb, for inspiring me to pen a few verses on a parallel thought.
