Your tribe is a place where you are a big deal

How would you know you have found your tribe ? When you don't have to be asked to be made a priority. When you don't need to question if you are a big deal. When you don't even have to think twice whether they will hold space. When you know there is no chance of being missed or forgotten. And, celebrating you is so loud and vocal in word and action. That's your tribe. Everything else is breadcrumbing.

Reaction & Response

We cannot heal through avoiding triggers. We heal through our fresh responses instead of reactions to triggers. And, the measure of our response is a measure of how much we have healed.

Manufacturing defect no more.

It took an awful lot of hard, hard, hard lessons from the universe to din it into my head that you can only choose one.

Listening

I refuse to see anything but the highest in you. Even when you cannot. Even when you have lost sight of it. Even when you are yet to see yourself like that.

All that love to pour ...

All the pain in the world is held by all those who pour easily for others only to find one's own cup emptying, who wish others notice their cup depleting the way one noticed when others were running low, to receive the same generosity, grace and ease which one extended when another pours, to not be shamed for the asking, and feel worthy of notice to receive a generous pouring without asking.

Shine or Scar ?

The most special people in my life remain are those who say ... Scars, what scars ? All I can see is your bloody shine.

With some rare people that we are lucky enough to meet, you already belong.

Every moment of life ...

Declutter

My system rejects breadcrumbers in love now with a clarity and utterness that I wish I had earlier.

Celebrating the men of the world ...

You give a lot of yourselves to the world, your partners, women, children, siblings, families, workplaces and the community and most often not given your due.

Inspiration

I do know that if there is something in me that inspires you, there is going to be something in you that will inspire me, for we are all nothing but mere sparks to light each other. It takes one to know one.

Happiness. That's it.

Be happy. That's what I do. That's it.

The cup of Aliveness ...

The art of savouring everything, big and small. Everyone you meet can only add their bit to it or take away what you choose to pour.

Stepping up

We need more women stepping up. We need more men stepping up to meet those women. There has to be more grace about both these journeys.

Bharat Jodo Yatra and the Urgent Need for a Second Awakening of the Spirit of India

At a time when the country is bleeding with hate and bigotry, the march was like a preemptive band-aid. A balm of love in a country that is brimming with hatred.

Manifestation and Alignment

It is the only real work there is. If we stay true and committed to our powers of manifestation, we can create anything. Summon anything.

Taking Care

You will never tell me if you are okay. Because you know that you are guilty of not nurturing the parts of me that you own.
