A little lake
Meets the river
The river meets the sea
The sea meets the ocean.
All in its own time
In its own way.
Think of the ocean
As an ocean of abundance
Likewise in this journey of life
All that which you seek
Finds and meets
In its own time
In its own way.
Live life lovingly
Trust and Believe
In the way of abundance..

I like the moments of morning calm
Before the world wakes up
I find the time for reflection in gratitude
For nature in and around me.
The night helps settle the density
Of racing thoughts in time.
Like water becomes clearer in stillness.
The calm and quiet of early dawn
Surfaces peace and clarity.
Mirroring the truth of the moments.
Emerging in the space of stillness.
As all the agitations drop as sediments
To repose the restless waters in calm
Realising the value of patience
Therein is the grace of effortless ease.

Life takes us many paths
We walk many roads
We experience many bumps
We feel this too shall pass
And wait for the better.
But what if we realize
The bumps and boulders
That come in our path
Are the pathways for clarity
They are the kind of roads
We have to pass through
To become who we are.
Everything has a reason
Nothing is accidental
So next time you find
A bump on the path
Acknowledge the wisdom
That it brings along
In the path towards clarity.
If these lines resonate with you and you would like to listen to more such reflections on life’s subtle wisdom and find meaning that every day moments offer, feel free to tune in to my podcast The Path Of Clarity on Spotify.
It is a work in progress, yet I look forward to reading your responses and learning more.

Meet not force with force.
It is futile and destructive.
Meet force with fluidity and flexibility,
In quiet perseverance.
In adaptability than rigidity.
For even brute force buckles in time.

Who is our type?
Why does our brain become immediately choosy, including some as ours and excluding some as others?
What makes some our type?
When we meet and connect with a new face, what is it that immediately draws or repels?
Is there more to it, than first impressions, communication skills or body language?
Does our brain genetically program itself to select on auto pilot?
For we often classify and categorize subconsciously as a way of choices we make.
Who is our tribe?
Who is outside ?
We are hardwired
With the safety metric.
Our mirror neurons simulate
emotional states of being
in others we meet.
When inner rhythm sense resonance
there is a instant vibe
aligning us in a circle of unsaid understanding.
Such pattern recognition is primitive,
a tool for survival
for flagging safe and unsafe connection.
A lot happens in a split second …
A combination of sorting
Processing the past connects
Sensing and interpreting
Gut feeling & intuition
Simplifying complex somatic movements markers.
In recognizing the effortless ease and comfort
Or the discord that creates repulsion.
Categorizing a stranger
Is a matter of survival…
Would u agree?

Today I came across one of my favorites from my mothers artworks and poetry.I felt like sharing…
Wheel of Life
The wheel of life moves on,
The path is never the same.
Smooth and pleasant,
Or rugged and rough
It never stops.
Our likes and dislikes
Can never hold it back;
For destiny chooses the path,
And diversions intersect
Along the way.
If wisdom prevails,
Every choice becomes right,
And the journey
Is filled with light.
The path is endless.
When it will end,
We are clueless.
So,
Make the journey meaningful.
Make every step count.
For change is eternal,
And the wheel
Must move on.

I enjoy simplifying complexity
For I do believe simplicity
Is just complexity turned upside down
And perhaps knotted and twisted at times.
All it needs is an untangling.
In thoughts words and deeds.
While the mind may play games
Simply speaking from the heart
Seeing with the heart
Feeling the sensations that emnate from the heart
Will release the unnecessary knots
And create a path of clarity.

From the darkness of night
Emerges the light of dawn.
From the brink of despair
Rises a ray of hope.
When all feels lost in a maze
A way out appears somehow
When doubts creeps in the cracks
Trust opens the heart in faith
When you realise how much can be at stake
You value the gift of another day.
What a difference a day can make…

Being tender in the toughest of times
Being gentle and generous with the self
In times of chaos and conflicts
In and around us
Is the way of weathering-the-storms.
Being caring and compassionate
In thoughts words and deeds.
With empathy that empowers
In light and goodwill.
Is the way of gentle heart
Flowing in loving kindness.
Everything is in this now
Who am I in this now,
Matters more than ever before
For tomorow that is yet to arrive.
Instead of mulling over
Uncertainties of life
Disappointments & falls
Rise in this moment.
Ask the self
Who am I in this now?
Whatever and however this moment presents…
Am I able to look at what is?
Meet it with composure?
What are my kind of choices ?
Am I reacting or responding
In this now of my life?
Perhaps in this vulnerable space
With the truths of my being,
I sense myself growing
From and out of every experience.
That teaches me to listen
Allowing me to flow with life
Making sense, along the way.
Knowing in my heart
That I am not a stagnant pond
Nor a stone refusing to roll.
For rolling stones gather no moss
I flow with lightness
Living life lovingly.

Conscious compassionate thoughts within become embedded in the core structure of the being, and what is powered from a strong core radiates outwards with the magnitude of faith and strength.”

A moonlit night
The beach glows bright
Silvery waves, sugary white
As the last of the seagulls take flight
Evening dusk shadows the skylight.
To behold, what a sight
To remember, what a night.

Chase not, the shiniest
For it often lose their sheen
Choose consistency over hype
It makes a mark in time.
What shines today
May become dull tommorow
What perseveres every day
May turn reliable in the long run .
Chase not, the loudest proclaims
It often ends up as a whimper
Choose the steadiness of approach
That often becomes substantial.
Chase not, the charmer
They often turn out fake.
To smile without heartbreak
Choose the one with humor…
And keep humor alive in your heart…

Meet?
Meet where?
You tell me
Is there a place
That is better than here?
A place that’s inviting called WordPress.
An inclusive space for creative minded souls
So meet we will, right here
In this wordy writing space
Time and time again
You and me
Sharing words
Heartfully…
💙

Any fellow writers up for this fun challenge.
Simply write in this
syllable structure…
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Looking forward to reading it.
Every living being,
And every part of our beautiful world
Has survived through time
Overcoming many obstacles
For some it is nature at its worst.
Storms and calamities
Hurricanes and floods…
For others it may be personal
And professional…
The human grit is plain to see
For we are part of nature
Persevering to preserve
Aspiring to evolve.
Remarkable is the spirit in resilience
It finds the wisdom in the challenges
To not just survive but thrive
My salute…
To the human spirit.
