Yesterday the flower was in full bloom
Filling the senses with unabashed beauty
Today it gently wraps into itself
Knowing it’s deed is done
Letting itself move into the background
Retreating as a way for another to bloom.
There are moments in the sun
For one and all
Such is the circle of life
How gracefully the flower accepts
The truth of life and living
Every flower leaves a lesson behind
As it disappears into the sunset
You are born to bloom
Life life lovingly!

To dance is to move with all of you.
To dance is to have hope in the living.
To dance is to feel the spirit of life in the movement.
To dance is to know the value of time.
To dance is to feel the rhythm in the beat.
To dance is to sense the subtlety of life.
To dance is to acknowledge the life in every moment.
I am thankful…to the art of dance 💃

There is more, always more
Than what meets the eye.
It is the way of abundance.
We are infinite beings
With impressions across dimensions.
Yet, our illusory perceptions
Confine us to limitations
Of thinking and knowing.
Awareness of possibilities
Changes our experiences
As well as our expectations.
In fact, even the narrative
That we tell ourselves.
In allowing ourselves to make way
For furthermore in understanding,
In between and betwixt
And
Beyond the boundaries of being
We know
All is a matter of perspective.

In the quantum level
In our cosmic consciousness
Our energies, transforms itself
As a pattern in the making
Charting us along
the evolutionary pathway.
Our imagination is energy
Of the source code
Dancing in all its uniqueness
Yet energy at its core is oneness
For all is interdependence
In the interweaved tapestry
Of life and living.
Collating confounding concepts Conundrum of collectives
Of creative connections into
Coexistence in collaboration
Of potential into the possibilities
Modifying thoughts to morphing ideas
Energy may alter in shape and form
Yet the truth of energy is omnipresence.
Savvy
Balancing on the edge of balance
Our lifes, hopes and aspirations
Have a different meaning
For they are sensed in vividity
Tethering, quivering in the now
To the preciousness of time.
Silent in the stillness of being
No matter the applause of achievement
Success takes on a fresher perspective
With all at stake in this now
So very embedded in the vulnerability
In the river of time.
Savvy
Nature of nature is abundance
Giving is a mark of awareness
Of awakenings to the truths
Of life and living.
No authentic giving is wasted
In fact giving spreads hope
And hope is unending
For its here to stay…
Yet those that give without expectation
And those that receive with grace…
Make way for a conscious shift
In awareness and acknowledgement
Creating an evolved world
That has deciphered the magic…
Of the strength of the interconnects
In this interdependent world.
Savvy
We explore it in unique ways
Some of us lookup at the sky
Admiring the infinite vastness
Of spaces above and beyond
Some of us look down at the ground
Preferring to dig deep into nature
To witness the foundation of living
Exploring the very roots of the life
Some choose to dream and envision
What might be, in hope for the morrow
Some sit in stillness witnessing their breath
Knowing all the truths of life is within.
Some prefer to dance with life
In this now as it unfolds
Accepting nature as it appears
Preferring to make best of its moments.
Savvy
Every time you find yourself
In a bit of a tussle
You need to adapt to the situation
A little bit of flexibility
Goes a long way
Where you bend but do not break.
Like the reed of grass
That bows down with grace
In the wind of changes.
Like water that flows to fit in
Until it shapes unto & settles itself
Like a lithe cat that braces itself in a fall.
This ability to turn adversity
On its toes and dance with it
Is a valuable lifeskill.
This quality of adaptability
The way you adapt, adjust or modify
Says much about you as a person.
It speaks of your capacity
To be receptive to new ideas
And new ways of thinking
To step out of the box.
And perceive with fresh eyes.
Without prejudice.
To understand what is feasible
To be willing to respond than react
To the changes, in flexibility.
And the ability to be non judgmental
Speaks of your unflappable nature.
In responding with composure.
Adaptability is a necessary skill
To overcome any situation in life
To adapt is to survive.
Heal the world
The stories of the bygone are contained in the stone
For within, it holds the secrets of the past.
The fragile flower owns its freshness to this now
The Blossoming of the bloom is the present truth of time.
How delicate is life and yet so very powerful in potential
One life has the power to transform lives…
But our life carry us on, not backwards
But further into the future.
The good we can do today will impact the life we have in future.
Touch a life positively & make an impact.
Intend with the goodness of your soul.
Treat yourself and others well
For you are creating goodwill in every action
Speak well and share kindness.
Enthuse yourself and create cheer.
Smile through the moments
Live love laugh.
Help heal a life and you have helped heal the world .

Every ask has a reason.
Every give fulfills a reason.
What reason it fulfills is another story!
Joy of giving & sharing
When can you give and share with joy?
And what happens when you give and share …
When your cup is overflowing !
A state of abundance
This is an extreme state where you are having so much to give. You are overflowing with possibilities in the potential.
When you give from here,
You may not miss anything.
You may not know the joy of sharing and giving as you have so much more.
Maybe you are giving because you want to get rid of whatever you are giving.
Maybe you want to self balance.
Maybe you want to share with those unfortunate.
Sharing the good always helps.
But do u know if the one you share it with truly wants it or uses it well.
Or do you give no matter
Even if it goes to waste
Because you are overwhelmed. Then that is not giving but discarding.
When your cup is half full!
When you are having some and then you share some, then you are sharing from your heart and brain.
Youunderstand and feel for those in need.
You share because you have something to share, may be not much but you know in your heart
That as you keep sharing you create space for more to come. You are balancing yourself between needs and wants.
You are careful in what you give but you give from your heart, from a space of love.
Such a giving arises from equanimity.
When your cup is almost empty!
When you give from nothing much to give maybe you are hyper extended already.
You may know but choose to ignore it
Else you may be unaware that there is not much left.
In both these cases the giving takes more out of the giver, so much so that it may soon cease.
What can u give when there is nothing to give?
You will give may be beyond your ability but then you will tire soon, feel used and exhausted.
This is a state of tilted balance not a great way to give.
We all may have experienced this at some point or other in our lives.
While giving from a place of love and trust it never goes wrong. We do need to feel the joy in giving. As long as your heart says go on, you must, else notice what’s making your hearts feel different and pay attention. You may learn something more on it!
When the giving & receiving complement each other it is truly ideal. But most often that is not the case.
However, giving is best shared when it comes from a place of trust faith & confidence in the giving that there is always going to be something to give.
When giving is mutual there is a flow and there is abundance.
When giving is from contentment there is gratitude and vis versa.
When giving feels enough it’s best to assess why it feels so!
In greater understanding, the giving flows…
Life is never stagnant
Its meant to flow
Be a giver
Giving always finds itself receiving
Life is a circle.

Our thoughts and our intentions create the possibilities and our will manifests it . Truly then awareness of actions its approach and the consequences start to matter. Every bit of creation has a purpose and the trick is to steer it towards the purpose of being . But the path is the journey of our life and is rife with challenges along the way.
Common sense, balance & equanimity of our thoughts & intentions, all begins to matter then. Yes, moderation is the key but be mindful of moderation as well.. You never know how things slowly get out of hand .
There is not much time that passes
When the glass in hand reaches the lip
The sip becomes a gulp
What’s one becomes two
And two becomes four
And so it goes…
Or when the thoughts in our heart gets spoken
When old habits surface & shape out of no where
Without your intentions, inspite of you
When what’s in you gets truly out of hand!
Be aware to be mindful
Be mindful to be heartful
Be mindful to be moderate
But be conscious to be mindful.
In throes of life and living
Emerges many facets of being
From meagre to excess
Both, two ends of the spectrum
To live life well
Is to understand
The necessity of discernment
Between what is need & what is want
Anything in time can become excess
Everything in time can become redundant.
Something always changes
Nothing stays the same
A life of excess
Will never find contentment
For you will tire
Sooner than you know
A life of lack
Will keep you in dearth
In angst for a silver lining
In the misery of poverty
But again what is little to one
Is much to another
What is complex to one
Is too simple to another
What is beautiful to one
Is ugly to another
What is extravagance to one
Seems a norm to another
What is a subject to one
Becomes an object to another
What is absurd to one
Becomes perfection to another
To each his own really
In this life that is given
Sometimes it’s easy
At times it is truly challenging.
So if in life you are ever flummoxed
Just remember
Nobody is perfect
But you are almost there!
Savvy
Dance Baby Dance…
As simple as that!
Delight the soul
Lighten the heart.
When you move freely
Beyond fear and apprehensions
Beyond self doubts & restrictions
Beyond assumptions & judgements
You are in tune with the spirit within.
Stay tuned in & keep dancing!

On black and white photography.
What is it about the black and the white
That evokes much emotion
In all its simplicity and elegance?
Monochrome has a surreal magic
That captures your attention
Strangely beguiling almost misleading
For it blurs the truths that appear
In the vividity of colour.
Yet it provides a stark definition
Devoid of any colour, yet not lifeless
It emotes through simplicity
Through the play of light and dark
Creating sensibilities and sustaining drama.
Both evocative and enigmatic in its elements
Inspite of the hidden hues.
Retaining charecter.
Reminiscent of old world charm
Of a translucent transparency.
A simplification of the complexity.
A composure of composition.
A completeness of capture.
Savvy
Touching the nerve of truth
It is not an easy task to confront
Cause to confront is to be ready for conflict
Be it any kind…
From mental social or physical and more
Conflicts are always unwanted.
But change is the only constant
And life moves on creating itself.
In any art and creative endeavour
Say even speaking & writing for that matter, there is much scope for influences and perceptions.
It is the nature of truth to transform
But not without chaos and confusion
Such is the nature of human frailty.
There in lies the strength of human spirit. (Contd)
