wandering the world with a melody in my heart.

“Write it on your heart

that every day is the best day in the year.

He is rich who owns the day, and no one owns the day

who allows it to be invaded with fret and anxiety.

Finish every day and be done with it.

You have done what you could.

Some blunders and absurdities, no doubt crept in.

Forget them as soon as you can, tomorrow is a new day;

begin it well and serenely, with too high a spirit

to be cumbered with your old nonsense.

This new day is too dear,

with its hopes and invitations,

to waste a moment on the yesterdays.”

" Trees are poems the earth writes upon the sky, We fell them down and turn them into paper,

That we may record our emptiness."

[maslimanny]

The cosmos is filled with precious gems. I want to offer a handful of them to you this morning. Each moment you are alive is a gem, shining through and containing earth and sky, water and clouds. It needs you to breathe gently for the miracles to be displayed... Cherish this very moment. Let go of the stream of distress and embrace life fully in your arms..!

When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us...!!

Have a nice day my friends 🧡

[maslimanny]

When everyone has fallen asleep and

the house is empty and still, it is time

to enter the garden, pull the skirt

of the apple closer to the peach, and

whisper the rose's secret to the jasmine.

Spring, like Christ, murmurs spells that

bring back to life the martyred plants.

They open their lips in gratitude and the soul

becomes intoxicated with their fragrance.

From the glow emanating in the darkness

from the face of the rose and the tulip

I can see the hidden light within them.

A leaf quivers on a branch and my heart trembles

the wind stirs the leaves and beauty stirs my heart.

The ocean never tries to be noticed 🏄‍♂️

Yet it shapes everything...

[maslimanny]

It is the old question: Do you lock the door to keep others out, or to protect what lives within?

And maybe modesty can be understood in the same way.

Is it meant to prevent intrusion, unwanted attention, the crossing of boundaries?

Or is it also a way of protecting and preserving what is held within....the delicate, sensitive capacity for intimacy, and the ability to create and sustain a relationship in which intimacy still carries meaning?

" True love is made from four elements:

Loving kindness, compassion, joy and equanimity."

[maslimanny]

Everything happened the way it did for reasons you may not understand today. Make peace with what was, stop rewriting the past in your mind, and allow yourself to move forward. Healing begins when you stop negotiating with what can no longer be changed.

[maslimanny]

To love yourself means to stop resenting what made you. Even the pain had a purpose, even the chaos taught you something. You are not broken because of what happened, you are beautiful because you survived it. .!

— Dorothea.

The love of a single heart can make a world of difference.

Wishing you an amazing new day and week ahead overflowing with joy, love, kindness and serenity.

When we are constantly moving without stopping, our bodies become fatigued. When the mind is overworked it becomes worried, and worried causes exhaustion. Today, if possible, make some time for stillness knowing there is nothing to fix, nothing to change, and nothing to get. Be a gracious receiver of love and life today.

I have seldom allowed my mind to just settle and feel ease. I have always felt the need to be one step ahead, which never allows me to live in the joy and magic of the present moment. Being one step ahead and trying to figure things out is always living externally, and it was my way of navigating life growing up as I always felt I needed to prepare myself for what was coming next. I decided to change the story, and a new story has emerged that involves a lot more ease and joy, connection, and living in the magic of all the little moments of each new day.

When we cease whipping our minds into a frenzy, when we allow ourselves some time to chill and relax and be, the sediment can settle to the bottom, and then there will be some clarity and peace. Our job each day is to do our best to show up with a calm mind and an open heart, and allow.

May you notice and embrace all the little moments of today.

[maslimanny]

And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it..!

[maslimanny]

It is one of life’s great paradoxes....

how little we comprehend of ourselves, though we live inside our minds every hour of every day. We stumble through decisions, drawn by shadows of desires unnamed, reacting not to the world as it is, but as it mirrors our unspoken confusions.

Without a map of the self, we lose our way, into misaligned loves, hollow vocations, or the hollow thrill of things bought but not needed.

Socrates, with ancient clarity, whispered the simplest and most demanding of instructions: Know Yourself. But this knowing is not a straightforward path.

It is more like stepping into a vast and shifting story, one where every question is a doorway, every insight a new beginning.

This journey inward is not a luxury; it is a quest, a necessity, and sometimes a quiet rebellion against the noise of the world.

Good morning ..!

The older you get,

the more you realize:

Peace is priceless.

Nature is medicine.

Health is everything.

And happiness is simple.
