It starts with a dream.
Believe it. Speak it out loud.
Share it with those near and far.
Send a sense of gratitude,
a feeling of ease and knowing deep within,
all IS as it needs to be.
Repeat.
Blessings dear ones.

Awakened to the knowing that we are wholly taken care of.
Consciously aware that the Universe has always been guiding us to our highest and best.
Peacefully rested in this knowing.
Blessings to you dear ones.
These words are for all mothers…..Whether you are of the female or male brand….Whether you are young or old…Whether you are with us or watch over us. This is for all the mothers on this day, as we pause, as we honor and acknowledge our mothers.
With deepest and most sincere gratitude for all you do. In particular, all that no one ever sees. No one ever knows. For all of those days and nights, months and years you stood, you stand….for our grandness, our brilliance, our happiness with your grandness, brilliance and elegance. Blessings on this Mother’s Day!
Inspired by my heroine, my mother.
I adore and cherish you maman jaanam (my dearest mother).
Mother of mine. Of Earth and of the skies. The journey of hope. The pleasure of life.
Mother of mine. The oceans abound. The delight of love is all that’s found.
Mother of mine. The vast breath of sacred joy. The devotion of your heart springs tears from the eye.
Mother of mine. Our soul is bound, our spirit is one, our bodies enjoined.
Mother of mine. Your breath pure of infinite ecstasy. Your voice eternal with the spirit of the Universe. Your words, your sight, your embrace are hungred for by all.
Mother of mine. Of beauty and grace, of treasure and gems, of reward and gift.
Mother of mine. Whether present or past, near or far, by blood or by choice, you provide.
You are adored oh mother of mine.
What plans do you have for yourself, your life, your legacy?
These arise from what we consciously, mindfully, set-out to create.
We produce the end results or we allow circumstances to dictate them for us.
Either way, at the end, we are responsible for the life results we have before us.
So go out dear ones, with the purest of intentions, to dream enormously,
to speak about your plans with full faith and to create your life boldly in the most unabashed way you know how.
And then, simply sit back every so often to take in your master piece.
It’s glorious, isn’t it?
Blessings upon you and your creations.
Compassion.
I’ve been looking at the state of Compassion. I find where I lack Compassion for myself and others in the most subtle of ways, to the most vivid of expressions.
Finding myself working through those spaces, where Compassion is not present, I strive to regenerate it within myself once more. This state of existence tends to be illusive at times. Clearly present in one moment, easy to maintain, while in the next encounter where the matter is close to my heart…new subject, new person, new exchange…. the inability to maintain Compassion for the whole sneaks away.
It is challenging and am I challenged when righteousness comes to the forefront. You know…. It’s those times where you know that you know, that you KNOW, you are accurate in your thinking, speaking, and actions.
But to what end?
I find myself asking:
Does making my point bring me closer to the other, or does it create distance and loneliness?
Does it create intimacy and surrender, or does it create distance and defensiveness?
Does being right create the ultimate outcome of unity and inclusion, or does it wedge a space deeper between you and the other?
Now, I know there is a necessity to speak and be heard. It is critical in fact, to the foundational health of any relationship. When engagement is infused with Compassion a sense of partnership, understanding, and kindness…..love blooms.
Yes, kindness.
When coming from this tender place with another, well….my being right, your being right, can both co-exist.
We can both co-exist inside of our own truth, while hearing the truth of the other without a sting or reaction.
We gift allowance to ourselves and to others through the state of Compassion. It is the juice of life.
Blessings of Compassion to you and yours, dear ones.
The moment when the convergence of the all events before this moment, become crystal clear.
They occur earlier in time, sometimes years earlier, to guide you to this moment.
Sometimes you are guided gently, sometimes guided with struggle, nevertheless guided.
And then in the present moment, when looking back at the path behind, all the events (joyful and not) make sense.
You speak with someone who is ready to open the door to the next phase of your existence.
It feels like magic. It feels like a miracle.
But it’s simply the divine guiding the experience having readied itself for you.
Blessed be the path before us.
Blessed be all of it.
We tend to believe that if we “Do” what there is to “Do”,
then we will “Have” what we want,
which is to “Be” what we seek.
We tend to go through life with the Do-Have-Be formula.
I would like to propose, should there be a formula to this rich and dynamic life, it is rather Be-Do-Have.
Arise from what you seek, dear ones.
If it is Being Happy, Be Happy.
In Love, Be Love.
Successful, Be Successful.
Content, Be Content.
Peaceful, Be Peaceful.
Alive and Passionate–simply Be Alive, Be Passionate.
The state of Being will call you into actions consistent with that Being.
The results which are produced will flow from the Being originally launching the path and your actions.
This muscle takes time to strength.
It takes patience and awareness.
It takes a willingness to go beyond where you have known yourself to go before this moment, and the next after this one.
It is possible and freeing. It is a life gift.
Blessings on your Be-Do-Have day, dear ones.
You ARE the One!!!
May you find yourself in flight today and soaring in this knowing.
May you experience yourself newly.
May you locate within You that voice which champions you, nurtures you, and loves you.
The power of this day arises from your point-of-view.
Align your perspective with the truth that you are whole, perfect and complete.
Like the ray of sun rising to brighten our day, so is your spirit rising to brighten our day.
Blessed day to you, dear ones.
The radiant flickering moments of our lives.
It may be from a joyous occurrence. It may be from a challenging one. Nonetheless, they occur and at times in a short span, within an hour, a day, a week, a month. Allowing all our moments to shine brightly, grants us the freedom to embrace the whole of our lives, our very existence.
Blessings to you and your radiance in this moment and the next, dear ones.
