On positive transformation

At times, I have noticed that some people ‘gang up’ against goodness, united by a subconscious sense of threat of being surpassed. It is my personal observation that the most successful cultures, systems and institutions out there are the ones that identify, harness and publicly encourage goodness, and not turn a blind eye towards itContinue reading “On positive transformation”

Btw, being a part of the bloggingContinue reading “Transitioning into the new year”

One liner Wednesday

I survived because the fire inside me burned brighter than the fire around me🔥

One-liner Wednesday ~

Take care of your thoughts when you are alone; take care of your words when you are with people.

Razor’s edge..

Don’t look down into the deep
Inching forward to where
Effort meets its destiny ~

Footprints..

Footprints on the sands of life;

Many may cross paths for a season,

But may or may not parallel yours

In direction, intent or reason~

Letting go is an art..🎈 Your future needs you; your past doesn’t ~

~Turn to that, which is eternal~

The serenity was only interrupted by occasional small jolts, from behind the boat. But since we were at the shore and the scenery was so captivating I didn’t lookContinue reading “Seaside Steadiness🌊”
