Trust is what holds us together
Faith leads our way
Belief begets action
Hope brings limitless optimism
Care creates consideration
Truth brings credence.
Love bonds boundlessly
Each creates the values of being.

Values Of Being
That little extra
A little more in compassion
A little more gentleness
A little more in consideration
A little more consciousness
A little more awareness
A little more connection
A little more conversation
A little more communication
A little more alignment
A little more in care
All it takes is a little more
To make a meaningful difference.
That little extra effort
In time & space
Turns ordinary to extraordinary.

Every me
Compassion towards the self is a critically necessary part of self acceptance and acknowledgement through self-expression, channeling and releasing emotions constructively.
A note in gratitude to the self.
Every me that lived and loved
Every me that lost and gained
Every me that helped & healed
Every me that fumbled & failed
Every me that connected & cared
Every me that was tried & tested
Every me that trusted & trained
Every me that learned & learns
Every me in every movement
Every me of my past to present
I love with all my heart
In compassion & kindness.
I am grateful to all of me
Of the past present & future
being all that was,is, and will be.

On growth & grounding
A garden full of blooms
And books filled room
One where growth blooms
Another grounds us in the reading.

Life echoes
Life echoes
In the space between & betwixt
There are patterns of existence
Mapping itself in the shaping .
Sense the sounds of life.
Affirming itself in the living
Echoes of resonance
Circling in the experiences
Spiraling and swiveling
Bending time & spaces
The magic of interconnections
Creating order in the chaos
Threading in the inter weaving
All in a stringed consciousness.

The River Within
There is a river within
That is flowing
On its own path
Coursing through the veins
Drawing from the souls well.
The well of the infinite
Unfolds many a paths
For the river to take
The river chooses its way
To flow on…
There is strength of the flow
In the movements
In the flexibility
In the adaptability
In supporting the body.
There is a journey onwards
Towards acknowledging
The purpose of the flow
The river perseveres
Until the moment of fulfillment…
When the river meets the sea.

The above AI imagery was prompted by me a while back in time… I just found a new interpretation to it today.
Tending & Nurturing
Tending & nurturing
Are deeply intertwined
Birthed in care
Having immense possibilities
In seeding compassion.
Healing the spirit & soul
Have you ever wondered
What is it in your life
That needs tending & nurturing?

After the storm
The magic of first steps
The chaos of the chase
The applause of hitting milestones
The struggles of staying afloat in crisis
The highs of flying on the tailwinds
The lows of facing the headwinds
All lessons for life
There is no mountain
Without a valley to across
The struggles of the climb
Amplifies the success at the summit.
Reach beyond knowing
Every step leads the way
Trust the self in every step
Let the clouds roll in
For the view is truly worth it all…
After the storm.

The hand
The hand that rocked your cradle
The hand that fed your hunger
The hand that held you as you took your first step
The hand that holds you steady in your heartbreaks
The hand that holds your hand as you begin to write.
The hand that claps in your every success
The hand that blesses you with unconditional love
Is the hand of your dear mother
A hand worth kissing in gratitude and respect always & forever.

Infinite time
Time knows
Time reveals
Time heals
Time allows
Time continues
Time ticks
Time spaces
Time delivers
Time tunes
Time shapes
Time changes
Time is time after all
Time exists
Before, betwixt and beyond us.
Isnt. time then more than a measurement?
Time is infinite.

Books
I wonder…
What constitutes a good read?
A prose, a poem
A verse, or a couplet
A stanza, a paragraph
A page in a book
That begins to draw our attention
Compelling us to read more…
Books 📚
Somewhere in our hearts
Emerge words of emotions
Birthed in feelings
We begin to identify with words
In the pages of the books we read
It starts to make sense
To connect us with ourselves
For a fleeting moment at times
Or it makes us linger on
For it takes us places & spaces
That matters much to us
Somewhere in our hearts 💕
Somewhere in our mind
We know a good book
We appreciate the substance
We allow the words we read
To touch of thoughts
To influence our life
It makes a difference
A positively impactful difference.

Stringing words
I came across a set of some very fancy words today …
And I immediately couldn’t resist finding the string of connection in them.
It all began, having a little reverie
Laying at early dawn, sensing the peiskos.
With open French windows
It was a gentle, zephyr morning
My heart was in a fika state.
Feeling the munificience
my thoughts were aliferous
As a philocalist of nature
It felt as if there was redemancy from nature
In the querencia of my being.
I enjoyed this little creative writing practice for today.
Yes,I must add some of these words were completely new to me that I checked their meanings. And some I have come across earlier .
I have highlighted all the words .If you enjoy this, feel free to string your own versions of verses incorporating all these words and share them below. Would love to read.

What would you remember?
A story makes it easy to put things perspective
For stories can reach the heart of man.
I am sharing such a story from my social media forwards this morning…
A guru asked a married young man to stand up during one of his speeches.
The Guru said:
“Imagine you are walking on a beach. A young, beautiful woman is walking toward you.
What would you do?”
The young man immediately replied:
“I would look at her, admire her personality and appreciate her.”
The Guru asked:
“After she walks past, would you look back at her?”
The young man said:
“Yes, if my wife isn’t with me.”
(Everyone in the crowd laughed)
The Guru then asked again:
“How long do you think you’ll remember that beautiful face?”
The young man smiled and replied:
“Until I see another beautiful face… Maybe 5-10 minutes.”
(And he smiled again.)
Then the Guru said to him:
“Now imagine this… As you leave this place, I give you a package of books.
I ask you to deliver this package to a wealthy man who lives 75 kilometers away.
You reach his house to deliver the books. From the moment you see the house, you realize he’s a billionaire.
There are 10 cars in the veranda of his mansion, and 5 security guards standing outside.
Once you send word of your arrival, the honorable man himself comes out to welcome you.
He receives the book package from you.
As you’re about to leave, he politely invites you inside.
He sits beside you, offers you hot tea and food.
He treats you with kindness and thanks you sincerely for delivering the books so quickly.
As you get ready to return, he asks how you came.
You say, ‘By local train.’
Immediately, he calls his driver and asks him to drop you at your destination in one of his luxury cars.
When you reach your destination, the billionaire calls you and asks,
‘Brother, did you reach comfortably?’”
The Guru then asked:
“Now tell me, how long will you remember this man?”
The young man replied:
“Guruji, despite being such a wealthy man, because of his humble and loving behavior,
I could never forget him in my lifetime.”
Addressing the room full of youngsters, the Guru said:
“This is the reality of life.
A beautiful face will be remembered for a short time.
But a beautiful character will be remembered for a lifetime.
Instead of focusing on the beauty of your face or body,
focus on the beauty of your behavior.
That’s what will make your life interesting, unforgettable, and inspiring to others.”
Moral:
Outer beauty fades with time, but inner beauty—your character, your kindness—leaves a lasting impression.
Cultivating purpose
Every time you spend
In cultivating purpose
In patience and passion
With a dedicated perseverance
You are inviting an earnestness
That helps you discover yourself
You are far more
Than you choose to believe
Or give yourself credit for.
As you find your purpose
You find yourself evolving
And closer you are to contentment
In living life lovingly every day.

Let yourself fly…
Go with the wind & fly free
Unafraid of the uncertainty
Sometimes, the chances you take
In going with the flow
You find yourself
Lost at first, maybe,
Yet, right where u are meant to be.
Think about it this way
Every way seems to make sense.
Fly free.
