What makes you more you?

In this mixed bag of life’s moments

Sometimes life offers moments when you are pleasantly surprised.

It brings out the possibilities in you.

Creating joy, trust & faith.

Where you look forward to greet the next moment with hope

And other times there are raging storms

Where you are numbed down beyond compare

Where you are unsure of your next move

Trust time to free your mind of doubts

For there is always a reason why

Take every learning as a lesson for life

And know you will learn to weather the storm

Every storm, leaves you stronger than before.

For it leaves a more resilient you…

More capable, more confident more conscious

For you begin to acknowledge your own potential.

As you dare to meet the moments, you begin to meet the potential in you

Every moment makes you more you.

Life experiences can move us as it makes us. Every one has some moments that makes us smile and some that makes us stop and rethink… And in time we realise it was all necessary to make us realise our self.

Do you agree?

Can you remember one moment that made you smile from the heart?

Can you also think of moments, that made you question to understand life?

Did you meet your own strengths along the way?

Do you feel you have evolved along the way?

Spirit Ablaze…

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,
And the fire ablaze, in the spirit of my soul.

The fire within, I nurture ,
As 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,
And I wonder of 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, awaiting the purpose of life.
With the spirit ablaze in my beating heart.

Power of a Seed

The seed looked up

At the mighty tree in awe

Wondering how it will grow to thrive

And how it will survive in time.

The tree rustled its leaves

In the gentle breeze

Sharing the tender touch

Of the nurturing wind

As if to remind the little seed…

Every mighty tree around

Was once a tiny seed

Blowing in the very same wind

That grew through the seasons

Weathering life’s storms

Learning how to bend and not break

So that it could grow one day

To its fullest potential

Testimony to the power of a planted seed.

Every tree is rooted with a message

Never underestimate the power within

Keep the faith and trust yourself!

The body never lies

Movements matter
For the body never lies
Whether you move
with your thoughts,
words or body.
 
It conveys the truth of you
In more ways than you know
Movements are unique to us
For they are imprints of life

The body never lies they say
Our movements convey the truth of our soul.
As words flow…
Writing reveals much about the writer
In the words said and unsaid
In the way the writer begins
& ends
In the choice of words itself…

But all said and done all writing, all creative arts can be cathartic experiences. The healing happens in the expression, in the letting go…

I write at leisure to relax and enjoy writing. It heals me. Perhaps if I am pressured to write I may not be feeling this way.

What are your thoughts on writing?

How has your writing helped you?

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.

All That You Seek Around You Already Have Within You

All the knowing
That you may need
You have enough

Already all is within you
Have trust hope and faith
Within you all is awaiting
You to know, You.

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 …

Learnings from a tree

Today is a new day…

Like a flowering tree blooming everyday, with hopeful buds

Make a promise to yourself to live and greet each day with enthusiasm.

Yesterday is gone by and today is a new day…

Let not your past
Come in the way
Of all that you are
Leave yesterday
And live today.

For your present
Is what matters
The past is lived
And this now
Is yours to live.

Friends

Taking this moment

To express my thoughts

Of Gratitude to all my readers

Friends known & unknown

Visible and invisible

In touch & at a distance

For visiting me, keeping in touch,

By caring to leave a kind word,

Or reaching out with a warm message

It truly is moments like these

That makes me want to continue

To pen my thoughts

With all of you out there.

For writing is a pleasure

With friends like you.

Seeing light

Your yesterday may have seemed very tough
Your entire body may have taken a toll
Your head and heart may have felt heavy
Your eyes may have welled up in tears
Your emotions choking you
Your breathing may have been constricted
Your muscles may have felt tight. Your steps laboured and dragging
Perhaps a sense of resignment may have reigned all through the day…


Yes it may have been more than you could handle
But handle you did
For you are alive and kicking.
Today your heart is lighter
And you are breathing easy
With a song on your lips
And a dance in your steps
Your body willing
And in enthusiastic spirit Looking forward to another day
To put in your very best
And make it another great day!

The question is then, what is  happening in you, one moment to another
And what are you doing to alter the effects of the moment.
And what actually alters everything.
Simply put, your own thoughts
And the power of your choice
Choosing one thought over the other.

Trust life to show many colours every day but know you have the choice in how you choose see and perceive it.

Every day can be good or bad day…
But it’s in the way you chose see it… That changes the day!

Power of Belief

What do you think you deserve?

The answer paves the way

To bring it to your life.

As you intend

You believe.

As you believe

You intend.

You manifest your intentions.

The universe gives you,

As you think and intend.

Your thoughts matter.

Believe well.

Think well intend well.

For it matters more than you know.

Habitually Angry?

When was the last time you got really angry?

Just a while ago, yesterday, few days ago, a week a few months or can’t remember the last time you were really angry?

There are many causes of anger and often, the root is in irritation, frustration neglect or abuse or even unfairness.

Often anger comes and goes…

But when you are unable
To let go of habitual anger
It’s a path of distress
That leads to self destruction
Anger poisons the  mind & body
Leading to rage when out of control.
Yet, its part of being human.

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
Buddha

When anger has an emotional attachment and it gets difficult to let go easily. Mindfulness then is the path to emotional freedom.

Seneca the ancient Roman philosopher had a very relevant remedy for anger… He said, the greatest remedy for anger is delay.

How you choose to channel your thoughts
And effectively manage anger
Is what makes all the difference.


How do you express anger?
Are you assertive or aggressive?
This is what matters more
More importantly when angry
Can you say what’s on your mind
Can you even speak in a clear way?
Or are you emotions clouding you?

Perhaps you are suppressing anger
Then chances are it may surge
And unexpectedly so.
So instead, can you channelize your anger?
For then you control your anger
Before it controls you.

Faith Love Truth

Master your mind they say

Before it masters you

Acknowledge the truths of life

For mind is full of thoughts

Creating 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 is this moment

Sense it and you breathe in it

Feel it and be alive in it

For the truth is in every moment

What you decide to do in this now

Has power to change and rearrange

Your state of being.

Life is precious

Have faith and trust

Stay hopeful in every breath.

For the truth is you can.

After all the mind works

On what you feed it.
