When you love deeply
You begin to respect life
In all forms that you see
You revere the omnipresence
You wonder about abundance in awe
Your life becomes more meaningful
For there is so much more to understand
About Life in the living
You become more present in the moment
Every now has immense potential
And you begin to live than simply exist
Live life lovingly!

Your happiness is a state of mind
You can change and transform
The way you feel with your mind
Your thoughts are powerful
Keep it positive and hopeful
Make your deepest intentions
Speak with all your heart & mind
For when it is in the right place
All is truly well with you!

Such a beautiful and inspiring share.
Yesterday I happened to read this share on social media. And I truly appreciate the mindset of these two beautiful people.
One who believes learning has no age or defined boundaries And goes on to prove it by completing her graduation.
Another who values the needs and heartfelt intentions of another and is accepting and inclusive enough to have no place for insecurities of any kind to seep in, while helping her accomplish her goals.
It’s truly fascinating to read this. And I do know the journey must have been one of those rare kinds as well as challenging on many fronts for both of them.
It’s truly not often that you witness such beautiful endeavors.
And speaking candidly…
How many daughters would actually want their mothers in college with them?
How many will be happy to accompany their mothers every day while in college?
How many mothers would have the thirst for knowledge and the passion, patience and perseverance needed to do something about it to such a degree?
Salute to both these spirited souls.
For sharing their learning journey. And showing age is just a number and inclusion is a matter of an expansive heart.❤

When we care to truly listen
We can hear our soul’s calling.
In the journey of life
Every one of us
Has a unique pathway
That is our reason to be
That makes us feel fulfillment
That speaks to us with all of our heart
That makes us see the signs
How far would you go
To find your pathway?

Truly profound distinctions between #Intelligence and #Wisdom
Sharing this beautiful read I came across
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 😀

Any good deed in time
Leaves a heartprint forever
Planting is a thoughtful deed
Reaping a harvest of abundance
A seed to a bud, to beautiful blooms
Shade from the leaves & fruits to eat.
Every tree is a blessing of goodwill.
Time knows it all
And time shows it all at the right time.
Gratitude for the grace of goodwill.🙏

Often the difference
Between mediocrity
And excellence
Is in the ability
In reaching beyond
To go the extra mile
For a cause, a passion
In dedicated perseverance
Towards a larger purpose
That is where life feels most alive.
Savvy
All is a matter of attitude
We create our lives in every now
As we choose to think and be
Our lifes moment aligns itself.
As each individual life begins to see
The value of self awareness and hopefulness.
Life evolves for one and all
Better communities to nations…
We as a world, are more powerful
Than what we choose to believe …
For we are our own changemakers
War or peace is a choice we have with us.
Savvy
We are nature and nature is us .
We are all made of star dust.
We all have our moments in the sun.
We all have our dark moments.
Its not easy for any one of us.
We need not profess to be…
Something we are not.
We need not behave as if we know it all.
Our life is created in every now.
We can alter the way we see life.
And how we choose to live it.
Our attitude is a game changer.
If we allow ourselves to be…
We would bare the truth of our being.
Yes we may be vulnerable.
But in that very vulnerability,
We will find our inner strength.
For truth is liberating in nature.
Savvy
Happiness may not bring gratitude
But it is gratitude that brings true contentment & happiness.
Count your blessings that life has put you in a position to give and receive from.
Beyond the darkness of the night Envisage the hope of light.
The joy of seeing the flower that blossoms in future
Give thanks for thats already yours
Gratitude heals and shields you from negativity.
Gratitude is medicine for your body, spirit and soul.
Show Gratitude in every way , everyday!
Thank you to all my readers for being here, every day and supporting my daily shares.
Think today from wherever you are…
What are ways I can express Gratitude?

Sharinge my earlier post again for this new year as it is deeply meaningful excercise in Gratitude and Positivity to me.
The Gift of Life …
“When I was a little girl I often have witnessed my dear father see and give great value and acknowledge every little good that is or happens , however small they may seem to others . It could be a with a gentle word , a tiny appreciation or a little compliment. He taught me one of most important lesson for a lifetime ….to notice, respect and reflect on the good in and around us … and to live positively and think of life always as Plus++++es .
Life is beautiful as it is and it is in us to see it so …”

There is space beyond
Beyond what is imagination
Thats awaiting your awareness
For its opening creative interpretation
All is not what is,
What is is not all…
In detattaching from notions and judgments
You may begin the journey to sense the now
But in the course of time gradually
There is a letting go of immediate conclusions and
In that dimensional awareness increases
Where our imagination is able to receive in acceptance than just
projecting…
In such a state of conscious consideration
Arrives profoundness beyond apparent realities
Association find new unique meanings
Therein beyond the boxes, imagination pirouttes
Beyond repetitions & recapitulations.
Creativity sparks in sensing the miracle of now.
Savvy
A world beyond
I see
A borderless world
Overflowing abundance
In the kindness of being.
Beyond assumptions
Notions & judgments
In fear and confusion
Over man made division.
The beauty of creation
Survives the human frailties.
The world without borders
Is one of awe and intrigue
Of the alluring mystic
Of all pervading consciousness.
Of manifestations beyond compare
Of artistry beyond words
All strewn for us to sense
In the tapestry of life.
Interweaved interconnects
Unraveled in interdependence
Such is the true nature of elements
Of Creation at its best!

Here is a beautiful story from India…
During one of his travels, Kalidasa (the Great Poet) felt very thirsty and looked around for water. He saw a woman drawing water from a well.
He went up to her and asked her for water. She agreed to give him water, but asked him, “Who are you? Introduce yourself.”
Now Kalidasa thought that an ordinary village woman was not worthy of knowing who Kalidasa was. So he said, “I am a traveller.”
But his lady replied, “In this world there are only 2 travellers – the Sun and the Moon. Both Rise and Set every day and keep travelling perpetually.”
Then Kalidasa said, “Alright then, I am a guest.” The lady promptly replied, “In this world there are only 2 guests – Youth and Wealth … both are temporary and hence can only be called as guests.”
Intrigued Kalidasa said, “I am a Tolerant person (sahansheel vyakti).” Now the lady replied, “In this world only 2 truly know the meaning of Tolerance – Bhoomi (Earth) and Tree. How much ever you stamp the earth or throw stones at the tree (for the fruits), both continue to nurture us.”
Now Kalidasa was completely perplexed. He said, “Fine. I am a stubborn person (hatavaadi).” The lady smiled and said, “There are only 2 truly stubborn personalities – our nails and our hair. We keep cutting them non-stop, but they continue to grow.”
Kalidasa had been patient so far, but now in anger he said, “I am a fool”. Now the lady gave a wide smile and said, “There are only 2 kinds of fools in this world – a King who rules without having any capability or knowledge & a Minister who is a sycophant to such a King and lavishes praises on such a useless king.”
Kalidasa realised that he had been outsmarted. He fell at the feet of the lady and when he touched her feet and then got up, whom did he see?
Mother Saraswati – the Goddess of Learning and Wisdom. She said, “Kalidasa, you are wise. But only if you know yourself do you become a Manushya (human being). A person without any awareness of self has not reached the pinnacle of being a Human.
Note:
The Guru who recounted this story in His Teachings said, “Children should become a Manushya & know themselves. More than teaching them how to earn more money and become rich, parents should teach them to become aware of themselves and become better Human beings.
Wouldn’t you agree?
What do you think of this ancient story and its relevance to our education today?
How far have we really come with the so called knowledge?
What legacy will we really be leaving behind for our children tomorrow?
When can we bridge this growing gap between learning for knowledge and learning for understanding?
How can we transform our methods of education where we educate not just the mind but also the human heart?
For the truth is that…
Humanity needs us all to be humane more than ever before to survive!
