Renew your vigor, sharpen your sword

The lines that cause your heart to sing,

The beauty that makes your soul breathe;

The lyrics that get your insides to tingle,

The sheer joy making your day special;

These are your rewards, your brave medals,

This is your crown, your sparkling glory;

This is your Creator saluting to you,

This is nature smiling with you!

Roll in the luxury of pure bliss,

Absorb all the happiness, be sure not to miss!

There's a reason...

There's a reason why crows, no horns, possess.

A reason why rhinoceros, in the sky, fly not.

A reason why lions don't need to bark.

A reason why insects must toil to thrive.

There's a reason why pets, faithful remain.

A reason why certain snakes, venom spew.

We wish so often to be transported back-

To a younger age, to a different life.

We wish our days were easier still-

While longing to erase, pining to re-start.

Your happiness is in YOU

Get out of the computer.

Walk into the real world!

Spend some time with your close ones.

Talk to someone who you haven't caught up with.

Scream the lyrics of the song you're listening to.

Giggle over lame jokes, rewind and laugh again! :D

Give discounts to those who do you little favors. :)

Cling to the smiles and dangle freely.

Let your inner child play with reckless abandon!

The source and You

In the wake of the storm, with dedication you've fought.

The lull, thereafter, might have left you distraught.

When the energies don't flow, in your heart, no more,

When you're so sapped that you can't see no shore;

When you pray for your meditative peace to return,

When you wish to do more than just struggle and yearn;

Take a cue from the drop of water that falls,

The ripple in the quiet, the Light of faith calls.

Listen to the gentle breeze caressing your skin,

Whispered secrets, comforting your soul within.

Confessions are for the soul

In most people and their actions, you see God.

Some others cause you to doubt His very existence.

You know that your Lord is true though.

Each memory from the past reminds you of His mercies.

Ask Him the silliest of questions you may have.

Confide in Him when you think He might be unreal.

Pause.

Still the waters

On days that you haven't witnessed God-

You have been too busy talking.

You might have been speaking to Him.

But you gave no space for an answer.

Calm yourself.

Listen intently, in isolation.

Watch His expressions.

Notice the signs He leaves you everywhere.

He won't ever betray you.

Have the courage to believe in your faith.

Fire purifies the gold

YOU define your life.

Your presence makes it special.

Don't let anyone else change you.

You know that you've been working hard.

The uncertainty attempts to shadow your brilliance.

Don't hand over your ace card to the enemy- protect it.

Ignorance might walk tall and confident.

You don't need to be jealous, though.

You are SO much more!

You've been actively learning.

You're persistent in the face of hardships.

The rewards will come.

Patience = deep breaths in and out

When you're in the shower and the water runs out,

When you're starving hungry and your stock is empty,

When you're under stress and it goes on to multiply,

When you douse your head in coffee, yet it gets heavier,

Know that God is teaching you patience.

He wants to know whether you'll be like the others.

He checks if you, too will complain at the slightest hurt.

Will you?

Because I know you can

Your heart may flutter in fear.

You might be taken aback by the sudden attention.

But don't ever hide from the light again.

You're certainly doing something right, to be here.

You're capable of a whole lot more, I know.

This is just the start.

You've sorted all the material you'll need.

You have your goals pinned up in place.

Don't fumble while opening the lock.

You've got the world waiting, at the other end.

You rose from the ashes

I just heard the voice of a friend.

It reminded me of ME from a while back.

It touched a part of my soul that has stayed shut.

When life goes on, we forget where we came from.

No, we don't truly forget.

We just choose not to remember.

Remember all that you have tackled?

Remember where you rose from?

Remember the ashes that almost became YOU?

THAT is how strong you are.

Gift yourself your time

God cleans your slate out for YOU to paint again.

He undoes the evil, so you can believe again.

He brings unexpected calm, repelling the anxiety away.

He sits beside you, celebrating your life with you.

He wakes you up, reminding you to live, to breathe.

He gives you exactly what you desire.

All you have to do is ask, believe and say thanks.

Treatment for Brain Hunger

You don't like a slow-to-start computer, do you?

Your brain doesn't like it when you don't work.

It feels insulted to be sitting caged in a rusty body.

Time is your friend- cherish it.

Don't while it away in nothingness.

You're wasting a lot of your energy in that, too.

When breaks get too long, you fail to work, thereafter.

The logic is simple- you're tired.

Think of the stupendous feats you want to accomplish.

Melt into your Creator's lap

There is one sun, one God, one energy source.

There is one YOU.

Everything else can get confusing sometimes.

Remember where to go when you're lost.

God is kind to be sharing His plans with you.

He gives you your own time on lease.

He gives you extensions when you ask.

He cures your headaches when you can't think.

He soothes your eyes when your vision is a blur.

He says, "It is okay" when you can't forgive yourself.

Stay precious

Glow in the darkness through your positivity.

Create a bank for times that you run out of your own.

Focus on what goes on inside of yourself.

That is where your training on concentration begins.

Learn to set aside external influences.

It doesn't matter who appreciates or demoralizes you.

Do you count on your vote or theirs?

That is the heart of the equation, here.

Keep the space in your head pure.

Nothing can invade, then!

Progress has no full stop

The world is so full of highly intellectual people.

Learn from the greats.

Mingle with the best.

The key is not in kicking at the leg pullers.

Focus on climbing steadily up the ladder.

Glue your eyes to the goal and beyond.

One step at a time is a great way to go.

But don't ever become complacent with your pace.

Your destination can never be an end in itself.

When motivation is the need of the hour

Complete from scratch, a task that you're a pro at.

Feel the exhilaration gushing through your veins.

Evaluate your skills.

Grin with pride. :D

Stretch as much as you would like.

Spend some very special me-time.

Sit with your favorite possessions.

Enjoy feeling smug and happy for a while!

Call up a friend.

Monday, May 9, 2011

Your way is my way

I am sticking to my promise.

I've decided that I can be a better friend to you.

Relax- If the war isn't fun, it ain't worth it at all!

Learn and educate yourself to your heart's content.

Feel confident in your abilities.

We're going to get to our destination on time.

Relish the true richness of this fortunate experience.

You're blessed- take notice.

There is love in sternness, too

I realize that all I ever talk about now is of winning.

It becomes extremely challenging for me, too.

It isn't easy to say the same thing differently, each day.

But I do it, unfailingly-

Only because your victory has meant so much to you.

When you're not breaking off from your grounding-

It is YOU who is perennially dreaming of success.

Yes, I egg you on too much, sometimes.

Yes, you burn out occasionally.

But don't give up.

Don't be lax NOW.

Do the drill- chew up the dragon!

When you're under pressure to perform-

Stop and think.

You've got a glowing past behind you.

A lot is expected from you- by you.

You know you're capable of outclassing your best.

Will you let the fear of a lower outcome freak you out?

Or Will you snatch the coveted top notch for YOU??

Friday, May 6, 2011

Bear the torch, light up the dark alleys!

Take tone from monotonous.

Grab the route map from routine.

Where the flame on the candle of hope burns bright-

There is the certainty of every goal being completed.

What kind of person do you want to be?

Think of where your happiness stems from.

Imbibe each quality into every cell of your body.

Don't doubt.

God promises to walk you through.

Have complete confidence in His word.

Faith is You

You're working very hard.

You're extremely dedicated and sincere.

You've got an accurate and powerful memory.

You're a fast learner.

You are in control.

You have larger issues to concentrate on.

This is one of the many milestones you must cross.

YOU are the most important in this race.

God is guiding you every step of the way.

Identify your true self

You understand that something is different.

But you don't want to believe it to be true.

Don't let denial hold on to you for long.

Time is of the essence.

We have worked so very hard to get to where we are.

I could get down on my knees and cry with you, too.

But this is war.

There isn't an iota of space for any emotional drama.

I refuse to surrender for as long as I am alive.

It doesn't matter if we've got to start from scratch.

We will build a larger, stronger empire- faster.

Tuesday, May 3, 2011

Down is not out- Get up!

Where there is stress, paralysis follows.

What is the pressure all about?

Remember that you're doing this solely for YOU.

You train with all your heart for one big day.

It would make sense to be your best then, wouldn't it?

Constricting your airways in fear would be moronic.

You're doing a fabulous job and you know it.

Flaunt it!

No, not to anyone else.

Proclaim it proudly to yourself in the mirror.

Realize that without confidence, you're dead meat.

Take it, if you want it

Ever looked through swaying trees at the morning sun?

See the light sparkling through the lush green foliage?

The diamonds are a hint of what is on the other side.

The leaves represent the obstacles you must conquer.

The path might be full of struggles.

But your motivation rises steadily as you get closer.

Focus your vision.

The maze might be brilliantly crafted.

But there always is a way out.

Smile- your time is close!

You could have done anything else with your life.

You'd have long been where you've always wanted to be.

Watching the others up on that high pedestal hurts.

But there is a reason why your goals are different.

Don't let envy bite you in the face.

Eat up your surprise.

Aren't they serving as great examples for you?

Ordinary people have gone on to glorify their names.

Soon, you will, too.
