Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to someone’s face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions. I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come.
Henri Nouwen
Came across these words which can serve as a great reminder.
Good thoughts makes way for a good day…
Think well.
Beauty is a very subjective term inspite of all the objectification that goes on in the name of beauty.
Beautiful you
Every age has a charm
Of its own doing
Every life is beautiful
In its own way!
What to speak of a lifetime?

Love life
Laugh more
Live vibrantly
Life is precious
Let there be care
In how we treat ourselves
As much as others.
A heartfelt forward worth a share…

Creativity thrves in an open minded approach with an ability to trust and try.
To take a chance is to take a step into the unexplored unknown dimensions of potential possibilities.
The creative spirit is replenished in such an atmosphere.The forays into the unknown can be a pure game of chance.
A dare unto beyond that may or may not pay rich dividends. But in those trials and tribulations a creative soul is nurtured. And new paths are created to journey on!

A share of profound thoughts from my mother
Life lessons
It is not about what we are having or doing.
It is about how we are feeling.
It is about how we make others feel.
It is not about where or how we are staying
It is about with whom we are staying.
It is not about where and what we have studied.
It is about what we are speaking.
It is about the tone of our talking.
It is not about the form or attire we are wearing.
It is about the approach n attitude we are having.
We live not with the luxuries of life
But with the state of our mind , our constant companion.
One word, or one stare has the power to change the whole state of mind, irrespective of the surrounding.
Being aware n having the right attitude in this ever changing life and making them Positive ones is within one’s reach.
All it needs is the effort to make even the harsh moments to consoling & soothing moments with the right words n approach.
Yes. It needs a lot of training n conditioning to change the mind set, to walk the right path.
Yet it is worth trying as it brings peace n happiness to self & others.
Ultimately it is what we all are seeking. Right?

Our vibrance
Our universe is full of waves of energy.
And all life is a dance of energy in varied forms .
In the subatomic level all is vibrational and moving.
We are all pulsating oceans of energy fields.
This very waves of energy is what makes us unique as we are in ourselves and in the way we move and interact with one another.
Savvy
There is always hope
For things to get better
There is always tommorow
Another day full of promise
Keep the faith and trust
It will feel just right.

Power of humanity
Is in the uniqueness
Of free will that innovates
In creativity and expression
As much as in the unity
Of collaboration that resolves in resilience
The way of the future
Is in the converging
Of hearts and minds
Towards resolution
In kindness and compassion
In humane ways
To construct than destruct nature & the world at large.
Let’s respect ,value & acknowledge this super power of humanity that we have within each of us and apply this in the world around us.
How to see the good
When bad is doing the round
To bring the good in focus
Perhaps you need to search
For it in their way of being
In the visible & hidden nature
There is much that happens
In the circumstances
And much that goes invisible
For it cannot be expressed
For it is seen as a weakness
To be vulnerable
To be sensitive & emote
Are qualities that are negated
For it makes ones life difficult
But life has many shades
The very weakness for one
Can be a strength for another
It’s all in the way we see it.
Every life is precious
With many gifts of nature
It is in us to acknowledge.
Savvy
Have you ever wondered
About the purpose of being…
You come into this world bearing gifts
To live the life you have.
Your soul your spirit, your energy
You have the power of thoughts
These gifts are yours
Use them well in life
You are blessed with uniqueness
You are ordained to manifest all you deeply intend.
Your soul is fired by your spirit
Your passion is fired by your purpose.
Simply trust your heart
It knows the way!
Savvy
You are greater than your circumstances
And powerful than you can ever begin to imagine
And in all having faith trust & self belief by your side gives you the confidence to take a step towards your dreams and say yes to life!
Savvy
In any organization
When leadership listens
Empathy is nurtured
Safe space is created
Conversations connect
Teams bond in trustfulness
Productivity rises
In balanced motivation
Both intrinsic & external
Work becomes less dense
In collaboration & cooperation
Valuing diversity of potential
Possibilities are explored
Challenges gets simplified
Structure becomes systems
Protocols are in place
Change is acknowledged
In faith goodwill and trust
That we are stronger together
There is unity in diversity
As respect becomes culture.
Trust becomes the way.
Savvy Raj
How do you fill your cup of life?
How often?
What makes you happy?
Filling the cup of life cannot happen
Without making space to enjoy life’s moments
Let the cup of life overflow
In the sharing of joy
The cup of Now:
Create space in your cup of time
For solitude and reflections
Allow yourself to make sense
Of moments without overwhelm.
Take a moment to pause…
And begin to enjoy the sip of this cup in this now.
For life is in this cup of now.
Savvy
It’s the way of love to accept and allow
It’s the way of love to empower with hope
It’s the way of love to sense pain and pleasure.
It’s the way of love to share from the heart.
It’s the way of love to shine through a smiling heart
For love is the gift of life.
And it’s the way of love to be filled with gratitude
