I choose LOVE - Versespace

💓💖💕💗💘💛💚💙💜💞💝   Have you ever truly loved? Have you ever looked deeply within and felt your heart expanding to infinity? Have you ever witnessed your heart walking outside? Have you ever hugged a feeling? How is it that no one chooses love? How is it that people shame love and embrace hate? How is it wrong to love but Ok to hate? How is it that this world has not drunk on love enough? What will make us happy to be in love no matter what the outcome? When will we choose love over anything else and be convinced that this is the bestest way? Why do we wait for someone to give us permission to share and show our love? Why are we afraid to trust this amazing love which will surely guide our way? Why do people hide their love and show their hate without any remorse? Why do we believe love weakens while actually it is hate that brings us to our knees? WHERE do we go to LOVE and not hate?   Let me tell you this: Go to Love for Love empowers Go to Love for Love enables Go to ...

Dragon of Hope - Versespace 17

  Diving into the depths of my past, Remembering moments of response, As I navigate a world of my reflected meaning making, I become aware people are always responding: In ways that are not obvious, In ways that you may label as unstable, In silence that speaks loud, In inaction that holds me from exploding, In resistance that makes me fight back in miniscule or mighty ways, In passivity that makes me want to lie down In withdrawal that makes me step back In self sabotage that debilitates me In imposter syndrome and inability to trust myself In body harm and shaming In addictions In deep sadness In ferocious anger In swallowed pride In anger that turns inward In inabilities and self doubt In smiles and people pleasing I also become aware people are always responding In boldness and courage In actions of justice and accountability In kindness and compassion In stepping out of boxes and crossing lines In navigating absolutely new waters with curiosity In musical and poetical musings ...

The Land tells me .... ( a poem) - Versespace 16

  The land offers me a memory, intangible as it can be, A memory of royal, benevolent Rajas. I wonder who his Rani was and then I slip into the memory again. Land is granted, temples built, and priests brought in from faraway lands. I wonder if the Raja and his escorts come back today to witness what they bestowed, Will they know it or even recognise it?   Lord Ganesha is the guardian of this temple, He is still worshiped in his own little shrine, placed at the entrance. Yet the main deity lies forgotten somewhere in the nether regions of the temple, While their replacement is feted in the sanctum-sanctorum.   Human memory is so fragile and ephemeral. Old is lost and abandoned, While New is painted and polished. We forget stories of the old and wish to reinvent every wheel again.   It is time to Remember the past and acknowledge it. And let go our greed for new and nearer things. It is time to Reclaim all that we already have...

No Lotus without Mud - versespace 15

  I feel restless even when I am with soothing nature I feel tired even when I am with calm nature I feel bored even when I am with tranquil nature I feel burdened even when I am with breezy nature Thoughts from the past and my future anxieties collide in my self and create a tornado I tell myself.... The Mind must rest in this absolute moment to feel at peace The Breathe must be my focus in this moment to feel the peace The Body must let go in this moment to embody the peace The Whole must be present in the Now to be in peace. There is no lotus without mud Om Shanthi, Om Shanthi , Om Shanthi
