Our words breathe the truth of our souls The way we feel deep within Somehow find a way to breathe in and out To find their own sense of balance
The words we speak, the words we think and the words we write. We have a mind, body, spirit connect with our words. In fact our words can be both… The energy of our emotions Raining relentlessly And also the signature of our souls!
As the threads of time ties us In a tapestry of weaves We make our choices We chance upon our paths Lighting it up, in our own unique ways…
Painting our dawns with hope And the dusks with dreams Brushing light of the rays & beams… Cherishing our moments in this now Colouring our dreams with intentions that matter Living loving Giving receiving We shape our lives… Acknowledging our thoughts Accepting our errors of judgements We all evolve in the tapestry of time
Embracing ourselves in self respect Embodying our faith in trust Unfurling our passions in time Unveiling our purpose on earth Until we find our truths of being.
The day you realize Your potential You begin to explore possibilities And you even make The impossible possible
Care to ask yourself… Are you safeguarding your boundaries Or being too accepting That you tolerate more than you truly should. What are you hoping for? Is it approval and validation Are you waiting for another To love you? Perhaps you need to celebrate Who you are!
I am better than yesterday… Because the Universe Trusts me to make a choice In free will I take my decisions I am responsible for my life I am choosing to be all I want to be To trust and flow In this now
I am making time for me To be self aware and familiar with my truths I am letting go of the unnecessary thoughts I am thinking better in this now
My self belief is that my day is going well And I am having magical day and am deeply grateful. And I continue to love life & am making the moments matter. I am better than yesterday!
Some times life comes to a still. That may be be Him testing will.
When we are low, When we feel let down, When we feel desperate, when we feel alone, when we feel all doors are closed, When life seems to have no meaning, Never loose hope.
The master plan of Nature, Is beyond our cognition. The way will open up, In any form, any time. All we need is hope n faith. Patience n perceverance. The effort will pay off. For He knows the right time and the right way. Cos that’s His Master plan.
Sharing this message of hope penned by my mother Anjana as a testement of faith and trust in the divinity providence.
“When a cat falls out of a tree, it lets go of itself. The cat becomes completely relaxed, and lands lightly on the ground. But if a cat were about to fall out of a tree and suddenly make up its mind that it didn’t want to fall, it would become tense and rigid, and would be just a bag of broken bones upon landing. In the same way, it is the philosophy of the Tao that we are all falling off a tree, at every moment of our lives. As a matter of fact, the moment we were born, we were kicked off a precipice, and we are falling, and there is nothing that can stop it. So instead of living in a state of chronic tension, and clinging to all sorts of things that are actually falling with us because the whole world is impermanent, be like a cat.”
Secret of success A ten year old Japanese boy dreamt of becoming a judo champion. But he didn’t have his left hand. Judo is hard to learn even for a fittest person. What will this disabled boy do.
He went to many masters in vain. Atlast one master agreed. The training started. He taught him a single attack for days together. Months went by. The teacher didn’t teach him anything else. He was disheartened. Master how this one attack is enough. Pl. Teach me more. Master replied, you become expert in this one attack, that is enough. He can’t disobey his master. The training continued.
The championship tournament started. First round. A fully trained opponent n this boy who has learnt just one attack. The boy won to everyone’s surprise.
Second, third, he won till the semi finals. He won that too.
The finals. The opponent has won many championships. He felt pity n rediculance on seeing his one handed opponent. First round started. The boy couldn’t stand the champion’s attack. He fell down. All took pity on him and wanted to stop the competition. The master said, no, he will fight the second round. The champion became overconfident. He removed his helmet and started to fight with a little laid back attitude . The boy attacked the only way he knew with full force. The champion fell down. The boy won the championship. None, even the boy couldn’t believe what happened.
Later, the boy bowed his master and asked him how he won knowing one single attack. Master smiled and said, two reasons for your success. One , you have mastered one of judo’s most powerfull attack. Second, there is only one way to defend this attack for the opponent. He has to catch your left hand, which in your case he can’t.. Your weakness became your strength and made you a champion. The boy stood in wonder and bowed in reverence. If we all know how to turn our weakness as our strength and learn to face life with its challanges success is not far. Life has given every individual a uniqueness. Use it wisely.
A translation of a Tamil forward by my mother Anjana
These words above are deeply interlinked in the flow of thoughts that arose after I read a translation by my mother from a Tamil quote forwarded on Social media.
Interesting to note it is from a divorced husband after 10 years of realization.
‘Don’t show your pride before your wife. She came to you just believing in you Not your relatives.
My property My earnings My will Then who is she? What is the meaning of her life with you?
Can’t she have her dreams, her desires, to be fulfilled with you?
