Making sense of it all
Chase not the bird
Attachment is the root cause of suffering.
If love is a bird
And the bird has chosen to fly
Chase not the bird
For the bird has already flown
When you encounter a love
That chooses to fly
Chase not that love
For it has left your presence
Detach yourself from it
And let it fly
And thank the bird
For the change that it brought…
It was meant for you
To clear space in and around you
To grow and evolve
And transform yourself.
For the better.

Affirm the good
On Managing Behaviour
Whether as a parent, a partner, a teacher, a manager or leader, we all come across challenges in behavior.
Here are few pointers…
Being critical is easier
Being an example is what matters
To pave the path of positive change
Affirm the good with consistency
Appreciate a deed well done
Behavior transforms in time.

Lightness of being
Lightness of being
Sense the lightness of life
And you begin feeling lighter
And lighter in every now…
Enough to flap your wings
And express yourself
From where you are…

A time for you
Then & Now
Then and now
Then I had manicured hands
Fingers always maintained
With perfectly painted nails 💅
Now I like them as they are
Functional and neatly cut.
Then I wore high heels
To make me feel more stylish
Now I have a style I call my own
High heels I no longer need or buy.
Then I was yet to experience life
Too sensitive to a fault…
Now I have come of my own
Upholding my health over stressors
Emboldened enough to stand by me.
And today, another solar cycle older
Wiser or not is left for you to say,
But this I know from living
Half way and more in life.
No matter the then & now
What is, is what matters.
In you, is what you need.
Life is what you make of it.
Every now is precious enough to fill it with gratitude.
Savvy
All of you
Each day of life
Brings forth many moments
Like no two waves are the same
The good tidings of your life
Come and envelope you
When you least expect it
Surf them with joy
Know they come to you
As and when they are meant to
Be present in the moment
Enjoy them wholeheartedly
Bring all of you to sense the good.

On Mentors
Good mentors
Guide people to mend themselves
At best they teach and nurture
Showing the pathways and gaps
To be adaptable and agile
They don’t break people
They build them up.
With empathy and goodwill
For those yet on their way.

Truths & facades
There is much going on behind a smile or a tear
As much as there is behind an act of aggression or care.
Truths that lie just over the bend
Masked in a show of strength
A veil may cover the apparent
But the body never lies.
It leaves imprints of expression
In every moment of now .
Truths that cannot be shared
Truths that needs to be dared
The body wisdom takes over
To make it through
To the truths over the facades.

I came across this interesting link share in my feed today. Do check
On Nature
The vibrancy of nature
The adaptability of creation
The constancy of change
The arresting colours
Unshackling of spirit
The inter connections
Soulful vibes and sounds
Imparting wisdom profound
And not to forget
The enthralling views
Are all things I love about nature
What about you?
Learnings
Learning never ends
It grows new pathways
Awaiting your awareness
Discover the joy of learning
You will find your purpose.

The mirror speaks
Has the fire died in me?
I ask, looking at the mirror
The mirror answered
Look again dear,
Perhaps you have missed
The simmering coal in your gaze
Like molten magma…
Perhaps tears you cried
haven’t dried as yet
Misting the view.
Am just a mirror dear
A reflection at best
But even a mirror cannot miss
The smoldering eyes of passion
The demeanor that speaks
Of resilience no matter
The ravages of time.
Yet the warrior in you burning bright.
The scars etched on your face
Are a testament of times
Of standing tall in adversity
As the storms passed by.
You ask, “Is the fire in you gone “
I say, I see them in all of you …
In your face and stance.
In all of your body, spirit and soul.
Speaking with all of you.
The fight is not over
As the day is not done.
I saw this line ‘the fire has died ‘ and I was inspired to write this poem.
Your thoughts are welcome .

Shine on

Acknowledge your being

Awareness of Oneness
Universal Oneness is an awareness
In reflections of the truth of the being
Interweaved and interconnected in every life .
Strength shines through the vulnerabilities.
As a power in the very fragility
Touched by divine grace
Enmeshed in the senses
Comes a consciousness of the flow
In and around us
Beyond the illusion of separation
Is the dance of connection.

Paradox of Emotions
Every moment is a cornucopia of sensing Fleeting thoughts in the making Feelings and emotions reveal themselves. Between action and inaction And in the stillness in between Like the ebb and flow on the tides While at times amplifying & complicating situations By tilting the tuning of the body and mind. Sometimes overpowering almost self […]
