You Can!
If you only could see the myriad patterns and colors of life you will live to create
If you could believe in the vividity of the moment
If you could only sense the magic that life is meant to be
You will…
Paint your life with joy in the flow!
Unwrap this gift of life lovingly!
Just believe you can.
You can!

Each of us create Circles of being
As our life changes
We create new circles in living
We are constantly recreating
The interpolation of circles
Every circle interconnects
Somewhere somehow.
In these circles of being
Is a sense of community
Creating camaraderie
Creating the ease of flow
Creating confusion and chaos
Of life lived along the edges
Of life lived protected in the core,
Of lives transacted in the transitions
Of lives lost and gained.
Let us know the strength of the circle
Let us respect its flow in the flexibility
We are, but dots in these circles of being
Every dot matters & completes the circle
And can begin a new circle of being.

If you ask for peace in and around you,
Make sure to co-create the conditions for peace.
Let go the dramas that may arise in time
Every one has a battle we know nothing of.
If you want to help make a difference
Make sure … to move from your soul
Speak from the heart
And connect in the spirit of benevolence.
Care genuinely, be truly concerned
Make sure to ask about another’s wellbeing
Not for the sake of asking
But from the place of love and empathy.
Then sit back watch your world
Transform itself in front of you
Encourage Appreciate and be Grateful
Respect, believe and keep the faith
In trust and hopefulness
For your deepest intentions do come true!
Savvy
Thinking is open to possibilities
Thought is already channelled
To be fair and square
Thinking is about the now
Emerging in this moment
Thought is the past
Over and done.
Yet every thought matters
As it may enable new ways of thinking…
And so it goes
Until these loops form a pattern
And hit a sweet spot of light
Illuminating a new pathway!
Savvy
When you sense a saddened heart
Say I am going to share some care.
When you meet indifference & antipathy
Say I am going to spread goodwill in empathy.
When you encounter a dull day
Say I am going to make it joyous
When you are faced with despair
Say I am still hopeful of change.
When you are feeling lost in a maze
Say I am going to find out a way
For there is always a way out
Keep your cheer about you
Know you are enough for you
And you will begin to light the way
Just by the way you are.
And because you truly can!
Stepping beyond the comfort zone
Is a dare to trust the given chance
A step is all it takes to get on
As the soul readies for a spirited dance
Knowing nothing that is beyond this now.
A blind conviction
To reach the unknown and how
Is a story of guts and gumption
The moment is all there is at hand
To test the strength at bay
And explore far away land
Flowing along with a heart that shows the way.
All this life is a test of will
To transcend the levels known
As you climb the mountain and hill
Being in touch with natures own…
Life may be a challenge at work and play
Do love this life to connect with care
Every moment is given in every night and day
To live in this now and heart fully share…
Your life is a pattern of living
That you choose on your own
So rise to the unique moments
Sharing the joys you have known.
Savvy
Every moment is full of potential
While in thinking about this moment
It may move on to the next moment
That is full of hope again!
No moment is empty
It holds the truth of the creation.
Every moment is precious
Enough to never to take it for granted.
Savvy
Looking at the fan like spread of this plant
Got me thinking of how wonderous
Are nature’s way of showing
Us how to live ….
In its arrangement of structure
There is a trustful abundance
Of spreading and expanding
Without fear and constraint
Yet deeply rooted to the core .
I just felt like cherishing this lesson.
I decided to take a photograph
In inspecting the picture closer
I was inspired to see the beautiful flow
Of so many shades and hues of colours
In those unassuming fan shaped leaves.
How much more subtly can nature say
Live life flowing in such a graceful way.
Savvy
In a place where the ego rests
At ease with nothing to prove
Where learning flows along
With nothing to suppress.
Where movements arise
In the grace of energy
Where time moves on it’s own pace
Without no hurry and worry.
When understanding manifests
With nothing to lose or gain
When every moment is lived in the now
With no reservations and notions.
Where there is no place for fear or favour
There is no clamour for success and fame
Knowing change is the only constant
And all is fleeting through in time.
In this journey of life and living
In learning and unlearning
In doing to nondoing
When dedication and discipline
Create the way for itself.
Without pride and vanity
Without assumptions and judging
Without claiming and complaining
Without imposing and refuting.
Life evolves in such focus.
Where wants reduce in reflections
Then desire sublimes itself
To nothingness in time.
Where wisdom rests in subtlety
Where there is no seeking
With no questions to ask
All the answers manifests unto itself.

Aren’t we often biased about our brain’s workings?
Is creativity only by the so called right- brained?
Is attention to detail only by the logical left-brained?
We need to see beyond these narrow definitions
To broaden our sense of the spectrum of creativity.
Our creator has bestowed us variety in creativity.
We can be lyrically logical.
Analytically artistic and much more.
There are scientifically proven facts
Spouted from words of poets
And poetical manifestations
Of empirical evidences by scientists.
The proof of concepts
Lies in our own nature,
In the fractals of life,
Myriad and mystical
Yet mathematically coherent.
Our brilliance may shine in one field
Because perhaps we haven’t
Yet truly tapped and glimpsed
Into all of our own potential abilities.
Let’s never belittle the true self
For beyond the facade and ego dramas
Our every cell vibration is deeply tuned
To the forces of nature and nurture.
We are far more than we could ever know
We have all imbibed it well in our subconscious
It’s just a matter of time before the awakening
Of the stream of conscious energy in the flow.

As a dance educator I have very often come across statements like ‘Mam, I have two left,’ which meant they were so clumsy that they cant dance . Or that they have no balance.
This is truly just a perception…
If only we can understand there is a dance and a dancer in every life. And the dance goes on!
After all we all have a heart that is beating right now!❤
I have heard people often talk of the students of arts as right brained as they are more artistic . Or a science student classified as left brained and logical.
However there is so much more to people beyond these biased compartmentalization. When we begin to see beyond our limited beliefs we open ourselves to the potential within .
Our innate potential simply needs awakening to realise, the truth of who we are and what all we can be….
Savvy
You are not the same
You are changing
In every moment
The change is creating you
That changer is within you !
You are the change, the changer and the changing you seek.
The wisdom is in…
Seeing the structure in the chaos and relate to the rhythms in nature.
Following along the infinite beginnings all leading to the same place :’Your true self’.
And in a knowingness that allows you to exercise choice in free will to be who you truly are.

Life is beautiful and yet challenging in itself!
We define our life
In how we respond to life.
In moments of merriment to melancholy.
The changes bring along the challenges.
And in it is the wisdom of the now.
To remember the interdependence
And know we are not alone!
To know life is simpler in the letting go!
Many deep-rooted issues that we choose to bury within manifest themselves in time as diseases of the mind and body.
We are better off in the sharing…
When things are too tough to handle
There is no point in holding it all.
The remedy is never in suppression.
But our world is happier wearing masks
In its facades the truth submerges
Only to rise like a Phoenix
Unexpectedly at the most inopportune of times.
Time to accept our vulnerabilities,
And find the strength from it.
Commend a share from the heart.
Support and appreciate their efforts.
Build a sense of community to help
For the truth is we are all in it together.
The healing is in the sharing
In the very ability to share
The first step of healing begins
For often in brushing under the carpet
The debris gets collected in time
And manifests grief in unexpected ways…
In the very vulnerability of life
Is the strength of living.
Kudos to ‘Brave-hearts’ for sharing their stories.
For it can inspire hope to someone somewhere…
Who needs to know, all is well in life and living
And hope is here to stay!

What would you teach the child of tomorrow?
Teach tomorrows child
To co-exist and cohabit
To know that none can be an island for too long
Teach the ability to adapt and not just tolerance
Teach them how to cope with life’s changes
Teach them gratitude and thankfulness
Teach them to maintain the dignity of being
That life is to be valued and respected
Teach them, the value of empathy and love
Teach them compassion and kindness as a way of life.
Teach them humility is not demeaning
Teach them honour and integrity
Teach them resource management and
Teach them to share & sustain the world.
Teach them the art of self-management
The world is increasingly self-absorbed
Teach them manners to be social and civil.
For beyond the gadgets and convenience of modern living that help us thrive
There is a human out there who needs to survive.
Savvy
Just for this now…
Keep away assumptions,
Move beyond self-absorption,
Steer clear of judgement
And ease up in acknowledgement.
Just for this now…
Stay still enough to understand
The dance of life as it unfolds;
Step to the beat of the distant drums;
Listen and move to the cosmic rhythms.
Just for this now…
Dwell in the spirit of this moment;
Let go of what needs to go in the giving;
Allow the flow in the receiving.
Just for this now…
Sense the truth that is eternal;
Know there is much beyond;
Fathom the mystic of this moment;
Live this life lovingly!
