Reduce Recycle Reuse
Positive change begins with us.
Every living being is making a difference to the environment in every moment. The question is how and in what way can it become sustainable.
With melting ice-caps, the collapse of vegetation and wildlife, and violent surges of hurricanes droughts and frequent wildfires are all concerns for our world.
And there is really not much difference in the apathy that is happening in the name of sustaining the future… only much similarity in the situation of corruption and deceit through politics of governing people whatever the part of the world we are living in.
Sustaining the world is each of our responsibility as we think of ways to nurture the earth and nourish souls.
It is time to take it upon ourselves to make a positive difference from wherever we are.
Reduce reuse and recycle … every tiny effort makes a better world!

Being content…
A realization
Of all that you have
In this now.
Being happy…
An appreciation
Of what you have
In this now.
Being grateful…
An acknowledgement
Of the gifts of grace in and around us.

Sensing the fragrance
Dinner under a lemon tree Capri
I saw this picture and paused…
For it spoke of abundance of being.
Of Sight, sense and smell.
Emoting in the sensing
Evoking in freshness of fragrance
Nature is abundance personified
Rewards aplenty, with fruits to share
The little joys of dining together
Socializing seem like a dream
With the world in its now from here.
Yet the picture paints cheer & hope.
Of giving and living generously.
Happiness is in the sensing
Have a wonderful weekend 😀

Harmony of Synchrony
Evolving with time
In the weft and warp of time
As the clock ticks on its own tune
The harmony is moving in tandem
To the beats of the marching song.
Time and tide waits for non they say
But to accept the changes happen
Exactly where you are , is to adapt
To the nature of the seasonal shifts
To begin to understand the dots
Is to connect to the bigger picture
Is to know there is more to every frame
Time to unravel the unundertood
Take the path of the envisioning
The construction, than destruction
Choose to decipher the genius plan
And trust the evolving patterns of life&living .
Growth creates changes along with opportunities galore
That can go out of hand…easily
For in the space of unprecedented growth
One needs checks and balances
To grow and evolve
Without losing control
The evolving world is no longer linear
But more viscerally attuned
To a multi dimensional phase
To synch in harmony
Tuning towards an evolutionary pathway.

On Acceptance
The Road to Acceptance has many challenges in the learnings… not often easy, but certainly transforming in one way or the other.
Like there are many aspects to understanding
In acceptance there are many perspectives
Acceptance is not giving up or being in the same place.
To me a practice of acceptance is an ability to respect the now and in turn acknowledge the transient nature of everything.
To accept then is to be able to have a feel or a vision of the situation as it is experienced in the now.
The Paradox of acceptance is being defenseless to yin and yangs of life and living. Yet to envision that acceptance comes from a place of strength, is to be able to understand that we are not one entity but made of many parts that matter to the whole.
So the stance of acceptance is about flow & movements in the stillness , in hope to evolve in time along with the changes.

Happiness
Why search for joy
When you have it all
You have power to create it
It rests with you.
Sense it in your heart
Express it with your smile.
If you ever feel unhappy
If ever you sense worry
If ever your sense of smell
Derails you and you feel lost
In a maze of confusion.
Relax and just put a hand on your heart
Know you have it all within.
For the way of heart is love
It will guide you back to joy!
A gentle reminder
To me and you
To smile from the heart.
And Live life lovingly!

Boomerang Effect
Love boomerangs
It is the very nature of love.
For love generates more love
In the sharing is creating
In the creation is the spreading
Of this heartfelt expansion called love.
Love is meant to flow
For life to be sustained.
Love flows its course
In its own time.
Such is the power of love
Love when channeled
In goodwill transforms the world.
In this love, life is lived
In this love writers write
Dancers dance, artists create
Poetry flows, Singers sing
All in the resonance of love.
Love envelopes the whole spirit
Without fear or favor
For love boomerangs
Such is nature of love.
Sweet Love!💙💜💙

Pool of Peace
Sharing my artwork here with my musings on Peace.
In the forest of your mind
Wanders many creatures
Of thoughts,
Great and small
Playing the game
Vying for attention
Fighting for Survival
To be heard and to be listened to
To be acted upon and manifest itself.
Your history and future
Dancing a tango with each other
In this present moment
But in-between and betwixt…
There is a space of quiet
Of all pervading calm
Within lies a lake of stillness
Or call it a pool of peace.
A watering hole of wisdom
A centering space of simplicity
As all illusory creations of the mind
Partake in a regeneration.
As the thoughts refresh themselves
The mind collects itself once more
All is Serene and tranquil inches now
Peace pools in and life evolves…

Breathe in Peace
You have it in you
The choice of what to do
You are your own master
You are capable to choose
What you want to do
You need to own who you are
Your passion, your purpose
Your life, your breath
Then you will breathe in peace
As you begin to own your own breath.

Gratitude for a place in the pattern.
Every piece of the universe, even the tiniest little snow crystal, matters somehow.
I have a place in the pattern, and so do you….
T.A. Barron WRITER
I loved reading the above quote and am sharing it here with great joy and a few words…
There is space for every place in the pattern.
Gratitude to the powers that are
In the spaces between
The two words, two beings or two breaths.
Between stillness and movement.

On Gratefulness
A forward doing the rounds on Social Media caught my attention today.
Worth taking a moment to read and contemplate.
💦 After the 93 year old man in Italy got better in the hospital, he was told to pay for the ventilator for one day, and the old man cried. The doctor advised him not to cry over the bill.
What the old man said made all the doctors cry.
Old man said, “I don’t cry because of the money I have to pay. I can pay all the money.” *I cry because I have been breathing God’s air for 93 years, but I never pay for it. It takes €5,000 to use a ventilator in a hospital for one day. Do you know how much I owe God ? I didn’t thank God for that before.”*
The truth of the news can’t be verified, but the old man’s words are worth our reflection.
When we breathe the air freely without pain or illness, no one takes the air seriously. Only when we enter the hospital can we know that even breathing oxygen with a ventilator costs money!
🙏🏽 *Cherish the time when we can breathe freely..!* 💐👏🏽
It is certainly true for we take nature for granted. The Sun, the moon, water, air, glaciers mountains trees rivers animals and humans all have reason to be.
Let us learn to live and let live.
Let us live life lovingly!
