Beautiful soul
Where art thou?
Hidden amidst
Illusions in the reflections
Mirroring through the dimensions
Magnitude of your brilliance.
Beautiful soul
Thou owns the key
To know yourself
Reach beyond your limitations
Trusting your intuitions
Exploring the truth of your potential.
Sense the truth of your being
Reflect in the light of your possibilities
Unfurl the wings and fly free
Your beautiful life awaits!
Savvy
Knowledge speaks
Wisdom listens.
Almost to invisibility in subtlety
Humility blends
And becomes nothingness.
Transporting the self to spaces beyond
Transcending what seems impossible.
Sensing the vibration in between
And living life in every now!
Knowing the value in the ordinary
Letting the unnecessary go
Being alive to the present
Acknowledging everything that is as it is
Engaging with this now intensely!
Savvy
We are made of matter.
Matter is filled with energy
Our life is full of changes
Manifesting itself in so many ways.
Sometimes these very changes
In our lives bring out
Redistribution of our energy
Creating a lack or overflow of energy.
Our life patterns can cause a rift
Between thoughts and action
Between emotions and behavior
Emerging in imbalances
Yet we are each at our best
When we have our unique mix of energy
A concoction suitable to our nature
In proportions of sublime precision
As we give we receive
In receiving there is giving
To balance and counterbalance
The emerging inadequacies
All a matter of movements
That heal in the doing
That restore our spirit
And align with our soul.
This dance of chaos and order
Balance and imbalance
Are part of the same source
Maintaining our energy equilibrium
Savvy
A good dancer invites you on a journey
You choose to flow along if you wish
Never in compulsion but in emulsion
Of the spirit of the moves
In unison from the heart of the art
In emulation of the joy of the dance
That frees you into acknowledging
The rhythm within so divine.
Listening to the melody in reverance
Tuning to the beat of the distant drums
Movements in momentous vibrance
Then all is harmony in the symphony.
Savvy
From time immemorial
Existence equaled spaces
Life equated space as a given
All a matter of life and death.
Our history is a witness
Of the story of spaces
Fought for, on and upon
Mauraded or harvested
The mystic and majesty
Lies in the significance of spaces
Spaces breathed and birthed
Spaces nurtured in nature
Spaces in and around us
Breathtaking magnificent
Stark manifestations
Of ground realities
Spaces in time eternal
Spaces bygone
And yet to be encountered
Spaces lived and loved
Spaces taken for granted
Spaces usurped and owned
Spaces pursued and protected
Spaces encroached and freed.
Gratitude to the powers that are
In the spaces between
The two words, two beings or two breaths
Between stillness and movement.
Savvy
So much for spaces
Gained and lost
Conquered and abdicated
Sensed and enjoyed
Or relinquished in the letting go!
In mindless efforts & attempts at attention one loses track of what truly matters!
Sanity of being and most importantly sensing of life’s moments!
Savvy
Gratitude rocks and how!
I happened to read somewhere that…
If you can find three things to be grateful for every day
And are able keep at it for say at least 21 days or so
You just might find yourself in a happier space
Try it for yourself!
Here are a few entries I feel like share from my own personal gratitude journals.

A picture that is open to so many interesting interpretations…
Is this a stairway to heaven
The path that sets you free
Steps that lead the way
To the light of eternal truth
Your life is given to you
A knowing is bestowed upon you
In hope that you will seek
And find the truth of your being.
All answers are within you
To sense and understand
Life is both hell and heaven if you wish.
All it needs is a stairway to the within.
In the rigours of life and living
Find those moments that move you beyond simply existing!
Search not the whole world over
In confusion and chaos over the emerging illusions.
For in all the facade of perceptions
The truth is simple and visible
If you choose to actually notice.
Seek if you must
The truth of your own life.
The purpose of your own being.
Choose to be responsible.
To acknowledge the wonder you are
Make friends with your inner self.
Treat it with care and consideration
Align your thoughts and action.
You will soon find within yourself
The stairway to the heaven in you!
Savvy
Creativity abounds
Artist delivers
Critiques interpret
Art flourishes.
Every piece of art is a creative signature
Of the soul of the artist
Artworks retain its interpretation within
As they leave the chamber of creation.
Once the art is set free and open
Making it visible and vulnerable
To reviews, critiques or applause
It is open to manifold interpretations.
The inference is never complete
Nor is it free of judgements in assumptions
For how can it be so?
It is nature of art to manifest counter views.
These very varied interpretations
Give life to the art
For as new meaning is born
The art flourishes in its wake.

Miracles happen.
You see it around you
In willingness,
In the strength of faith,
In a shift of perspectives,
In envisioning beyond,
In refusing to give up,
In never losing hope,
In allowing to be guided,
In seeing possibilities in the impossible,
In keeping wonder alive,
In sensing the evolving miracles,
In knowing the fragility of every now,
In living life’s every moment
As if it is a miracle in itself.
Either there is a miracle for you
Waiting to happen,
Or you are the miracle for another
Waiting to unfold.
Both are inspiration for one or the other
For out of difficulties
Miracles are born!
Whenever and wherever, there is hope, faith and love, miracles happen.

My reflections on the stunning capture of the Cherry blossom Tree on Mount Fuji in Japan.
On the razors edge , there is poignant elegance
Beautiful poise, precariously in balance
Amidst the fury of the fire raging beneath
She stand resolute in her calmth
Not helpless but in knowing Nature’s ways
That in time all is well back to base
Beauty on the outside burns off into the ember
Leaving an ashen pile of dust to remember
Yet deluding the fury in being uprooted
In the strength of the grounding firmly rooted
Leaving an evergreen picture of poise
She has that stoic stance of grace
A pose of composure on destiny’s face
In spite of a life abruptly denied
She is the beauty of Grace personified !

Why Practice Matters?
Learning any skill requires disciplined and repeated practice. Skill Development is an art itself .
Without the effort of practice , skills cannot improve or sustain.
While practice may not make every person perfect it will certainly better them gradually.
Practice makes you learn until you start to work instinctively.
To reach the level of an expert, practical training is a progressive module which creates challenges as you go along. Every stage a bit tougher than the earlier one.
What is important to remember is that practice is not only necessary but it is necessary to practice efficiently and effectively.
Does practise makes it perfect?
Practice is to engage and rehearse repeatedly in order to perfect a skill to mastery , but not all who practice acheive the level of an expert even with structured and deliberate practice standards in place . So we can safely say practice makes one better gradually.
A consistent practice of any talent or skill will begin to show results for sure. It could be tangible jump or it could be a little step according to the amount to time, focus and energy given to practice. In time the results could be exponential in its rewards as well.
Practice can be truly rewarding and a great source of confidence.But practice needs not only consistency but also determination in perseverance.
A few tips to improve and implement a practice routine..
Be ready to self reflect so as understand why you are motivated to continue practicing.
Be willing to develop the learners mindset and maintain it.
Be mindful of your behavioral changes as you improve and work on it positively to sustain you.
Be engaged proactively to adjust your practice levels as per requirement.
Be focused to set short and long term goals and work on achieving them.
Most of all…
Continuity of practice is important after achieving a set goal…
Keep your practice going!

Every life is unique and in that lies our greatest strengths.
The potential lies in our knowing the value of strength in the differences for that is what gives birth to new possibilities.
In between the rigidity of structure are the infinite possibilities of potential waiting to be discovered and understood.
Perhaps all it needs is a sensing beyond the looking.
To be inclusive and expansive in our approach.
To understand in humility, there are great lessons waiting to expand the consciousness of our being.
To respect the self and the manifest self similarities as much as the apparent diversities.
To being aware of the immensity of possible outcomes in thinking beyond the self.
To know all is connected in the grand plan.
Our unique differences is what moves us forward as it is necessary to move the wheel of life in balance.
Think of our life as pieces in a mystical puzzle that is meant to fit perfectly together… like parts serving as a whole.
