What color am I?

-

 I am Purple, a mix of red and blue. You can find me everywhere during Spring, the flower blossoms love to wear my color. I am a hue in the sky during sunsets, especially those magnificent AZ sunsets! I am the color of the liminal space, right before darkness completely takes over the space. I am a mix of red and blue, of passion and compassion, fire and water, anger and love. What do you get when you mix passion and compassion? You get purple - from passion and suffering comes compassion and from there emerges Love! Remember me, I am what comes to be when you go through passion and suffering in your quest to arrive at compassion.

I am Purple, the bright beautiful color of Spring, of skies, of flowers, of sunsets, of dark monsoon skies and the border of a rainbow! I look good on your walls, on your dress and on your hat. I am in yams and some in blueberries and dark nourishing smoothies. I can brighten up any landscape on your canvas.

I am Purple, a beautiful color on its own but when I mix with all other colors, I lose myself and become white - the color of peace, joy and equanimity!

I am Purple, the color of possibilities hiding in the liminal space, in the in-bet-weens. 

Purple is my color right now!

Power of Cinema

Today, I want to share my love for cinema and how it captures my heart with its authentic emotions and depth of feeling. When I find myself deeply drawn to something, I often ask myself a fundamental question: "What part of me is resonating with this? Which part of me feels complete because of it? And why, if at all, do I feel incomplete without it?" Since childhood, cinema has fascinated me. It transports me to another world, immerses me in its reality, and leaves me changed. Some films create such an impact that I feel unable to return to everyday life. Recently, two movies— The Idea of You and Red, White & Royal Blue , both on Prime Video—had that effect on me. The actor who captivated me was Nicholas Galitzine. His performance left such an impression that it compelled me to write this piece. Galitzine is devilishly handsome, with a chiseled face, expressive eyes, amazing hair, and a smooth, silky voice that he uses beautifully to sing. I watched him play very differe...

To Sid, With Love

-
My Dear Sid, Words can never fully express my love for you, Your beautiful face makes my heart skip a beat. Your eyes, so full of depth and curiosity, Call upon me to drown in their beauty. Who are you, and where have you come from To melt my heart so profoundly? Your lips, so perfectly shaped, How I long to kiss them gently. Your questions, endless and probing, Challenge me; in my mental captivity, I struggle to find the answers. Forgive me, for I falter and feel unworthy of your love. The way you look at me, Your gaze piercing my heart, Reveals that you are extraordinary, In every sense of the word. Your observations of life and truth, Your bravery in questioning my ways, Bring light into my life. I am thankful to the vast universe For blessing me with you, Even though I feel unworthy of such a child. Forgive my anger, My foolish belief that I know better. Mother, take me back, let me learn, To become worthy of this incredible being. I love you, Sid, More than I can ever express. May...

Matthew Perry's Memoir and the Search for Inner Peace

-
Matthew Perry, renowned for his portrayal of Chandler Bing on the beloved TV series "Friends," passed away on October 28th, 2023. As a long-time fan of both the show and his character, the news of his death hit me deeply. While I was aware of his struggles with addiction, I realized I knew little about the man beyond his public persona. That's when I came across his memoir, "Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing," available on Audible in his own voice. Hearing his story from him directly lent a profound authenticity to the narrative. The memoir delves into Perry's extraordinary journey to fame and success, particularly his iconic role in "Friends." However, it commences by exploring his early life and the childhood trauma that shaped his psyche. Raised by divorced parents living on opposite sides of North America, he grappled with profound feelings of abandonment, insecurity, fear, and constant anxiety. It's a narrative that resonates wit...
