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!

All that is visible
May be just an illusion
Or tricks and perhaps a facade
In the name of reality.
There is a maze running through
Of potential possibilities
Of fears and failures
Of success in endeavors.
Perceptions can create deceptions
Perhaps scripted and meant to distort.
And create a illusory reality
That can confound the smartest minds.
Humans are a work of art
Of mesmerizing magnitude
Each with a heart and mind of their own
Uniquely endowed beings…
Between the white and black
Are so many shades of grey
What appears right or wrong
May have so many layers to it.
Know such is the manner of life and living
Care to take note of emerging perspectives
And understand the shifts of behavior
Before you decide or draw a conclusion.
Savvy
The power of choice rests with you … always .
Whatever irks you in the moment
Whatever seems too disappointing.
Whatever brings you down
Take a moment to think if its worth your energy and time…

And here is nice little message worth a read on anger management.
I once asked a very successful Man to share his secret with me. He smiled and said to me.. “I started succeeding when I started leaving small fights for small fighters. I stopped fighting those who gossiped about me…I stopped fighting with my in laws…I stopped fighting for attention…I stopped fighting to meet public expectation of me…I stopped fighting for my rights with stupid people..I left such fights for those who have nothing else to do but fight…And I started fighting for my vision, my dreams, my ideas and my destiny. The day I gave up on small fights is the day I started becoming successful.”
Some fights are not worth your time. Choose what you fight for wisely…..
After deep pain arrives a great blessing
After heavy rain appears the rainbow
In toughest moments arrives a breakthrough
Through the biggest wave shines through a light.
The longest night awakens with the hope of new dawn.
The longest tunnel opens to beams of sunlight
In deepest silence may be hidden utmost reverence.
In deepest gratitude lies a heartfelt prayer
What is visible may be an illusion
What is invisible may be the truth!

Here is a beautiful story that is worth a read and share.
A young woman was sitting at her dining table, worried about taxes to be paid, house-work to be done and to top it all, her family was coming over for Thanksgiving the next day. She was not feeling very thankful at that time. As she turned her gaze sideways, she noticed her young daughter scribbling furiously into her notebook. “My teacher asked us to write a paragraph on “Negative Thanksgiving” for homework today.” said the daughter, “She asked us to write down things that we are thankful for, things that make us feel not so good in the beginning, but turn out to be good after all.”
With curiosity, the mother peeked into the book. This is what the daughter had written:
“I’m thankful for Final Exams, because that means school is almost over. I’m thankful for bad-tasting medicine, because it helps me feel better. I’m thankful for waking up to alarm clocks, because it means I’m still alive.” It then dawned on the mother, that she had a lot of things to be thankful for! She thought again… She had to pay taxes but that meant she was fortunate to be employed. She had house-work to do but that meant she had her own home to live in. She had to cook for her family for Thanksgiving but that meant she had a family with whom she could celebrate.
Moral:We generally complain about the negative things in life but we fail to look at the positive side of it. What is the positive in your negatives?
Look at the better part of life this day and make it a great day”
Gratifying to know…

Life’s lessons for one and all!
To learn anything profound
That gets you changing the self
That transforms thoughts
To transcend the mundane
In contemplation and reflection.
To response and action
Practice is the best teaching.
To teach is to engage whatever the age.
Teaching the young
A child is reflexive and responsive
And absorbs in the new like a sponge.
To teach the young is no easy task
It can be a task that is daunting
And yet very rewarding at the same time.
To truly change the world for the better
We need to teach them, love for life and living.
We need to speak with compassion for them to follow suit
We need to share and express ourselves
We need to treat one other with kindness.
We need to be caring and considerate consistently.
We need to share more of ourselves
We need to honour our commitments.
We need to reach out and help another.
We need to encourage and appreciate
For these are what gets imprinted in their hearts
For acts of goodwill leave a lasting impression.
