Will Smith

Wills Wisdom...


Some of my favourite lines...


Skill is only developed by hours and hours of beating down on your craft
While the other guys are sleeping, I am working...
Dedicate yourself to being better everyday...
Believe that something different will happen no matter how ridiculous the idea is.
Don't be afraid to die on the treadmill.... hahaha
Don't let anybody tell you can't do something.
You got a dream, you got to protect it.

Out Of Suffering...

"Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.”


~ Kahlil Gibran

Michael Jackson

As a legendary musical wave lands on the shores of silence...
His beats echo and break across the bass of the ocean
For eternity the pure sound vibrations tap into your very life force
While the message in the rhythm takes over like its your only source
~ Pranishka


Michael, his Genius, his immensity was not meant for this world.. We have been blessed and gifted to have him in our lifetime..

How can you thank someone for instigating your love of music, for giving you the beat while infusing and instilling so amazing messages and values through this medium!

I just hope he can now feel how much he meant to us all..

Attached is something my father wrote for him.. Being in South Africa, MJ meant alot to people of colour back in the 80's.. Because he was on the first black man on MTV, to break so many records and was doing amazing things in the world.. He gave us South Africans hope.. :)

  

Lost Beats

People!

We are becoming desenstized

Equlized and synthesied

Living contridictions

Socially conditioned

Making Auto-tuned decisions..

Stop being a sample

Amplify and be an example!

The Golden Leaf

Floating beneath the surface of a harsh reality

The inner universe becomes your source of solitude and sanctuary

Claustrophobic clusters of disenchantment and fractals of frustration

Leave a stale scent of pervading cynicism

And as it lingers in the air

You exhale a sigh of disbelief

Wondering what the world could have been  

Painted on a golden leaf...

~ Pranishka

Free At Last

As the long days behind me blur into even longer days ahead
I endure with a focus that never fades through a tempest night
My awakened ambition drives,
Searching for a street named freedom amidst the moonlight
A journey only beginning its transient twilight.
For I know that the evening eclipse will break at dawn to igniteAnd in the sunshine of success I will blissfully bask
His dream, a reality, God Almighty, Free at last.

~ Pranishka

The Guardian

The guardian of righteousness has began his journey
Graced with amazing dreams
For he who travels at the speed of light
Can only be like a lighthouse
A navigator of inspiration
A beacon of vision and change
Guiding all through even that darkest moment in life.

~ Pranishka

 

The Deviation

Widespread and growing by the day.

Thoughts of you make their way

Like the sun you blaze through the clouds of grey

Illuminating even the darkest moments, filling the world with radiant rays.

Change is not coming, it is a constant vibration,

And you my friend are the deviation.

As your will and opportunity face off in a daily duality of reality

You realise that living in hope alone is not good enough

That you, yourself have to stand tall and uphold your truth and value

And fight with non-violent feats for every one of your dreams.

Only than will life articulate its vision and sight through eyes of freedom and righteousness.

And the universe...

The universe delivers on your so called life of grand.

Where kindness never fades from your serving hands.

~Pranishka

The Young Phoenix

The ancient nightingale's message from the universe pierces our very sight.

 Our eyes close with calmness, as we face daily calamities and battles

Urges to conform to societal pressures and the spicy flavours of the day besiege us

Tempt us, blur even our judgement, and subdue our heart to reach those distant starred dreams

We find ourselves taking the easy way out and end up on a lonesome desert road

Filled with mirages and an oasis of transient charm

Like a tempest that hauls gale force winds across the land with its feather touch

It to craves the sense of belonging and to feel humanity

Burdened by gravity,

Even the high Himalayan Mountains of happiness and the low valleys entrap its freedom.

Relentless, the seeker howls as it burns through the tunnel of fury,

Until a tiny window of opportunity presents itself.

Unlike the many falsehood of choices that had previously beckoned unfruitful desires

Or like the Eden apple that led us to a Mayan empire of yuga proportions

Nor is it like a black hole of ignoramus oblivion.

No, this is a growing star of truth

Of pure Light, luminous energy and magnetic magic

Which never undulates in the magnitude of darkness and space

The so called “negative and positive” forces collide transforming and evolving the core of the being.

And in that moment, blazing across the sky, the young phoenix spreads its fiery wings rising to meet the glorious morning sunshine.

~ Pranishka

Make Change

I find it exhausting
When people complain
Yet all they seem to do is go around in circles
Coining only phrases,
Expecting change...
As the inertia of ignorance and fear captivates their futile chants of no I cant's,
I wander past their wishing well and throw in my 2 cent grants
Like nurturing a growing seed into a beautiful plant
I hope that little ripple of belief becomes a wave of inspiration
A life savings plan to invest in happiness
For that should be our first business.
Let it become a currency of common sense
Not a liability or an expense
Make change to make a difference.

~ Pranishka

 

 

The New York Alchemist

An ancient Samaritan

Strolls down the sultry streets of Manhattan

Lighting the way with his verve and magic lantern

The cold concrete and cobblestone road

Transforms

Into a heavenly path paved in gold

His gentle glances

Revealing a spectrum of experiences

Juxtaposed through history

Captivating

And full of mystery

The immensity on his face bares great scars and the wisdom of time

Yet a plethora of people walk on by

Blind-sided by their own ego

And looking for the next dollar sign.

When the avaricious caste finally catch a glimpse

Of his vibrancy, calm disposition and indifference

They try and squeeze every drop of blood out of him

But he knows their game

Those loitering, money hungry, leaching types

And remains unaffected by their glut and temporary bites

His quest and journey taking precedence

Focused and unwavering without incident

He speaks a rare and unspoken language

Translating everyday limitations into realisations

Living his values through real life situations

Graced with insight

He foresees that his dreams

Live beyond those Calvin Klein jeans

So he embraces the moon and the night

By distilling the haunted darkness at every sight

Traversing obstacles,

Worldly temptations and red lights

Emerging with freedom

And an awakened heart

He's now on an omniscient path

The universe blessing him with the aurifying art

A life force effervescent and so prophetic

He floods the air with a pervading serenity, it’s magnetic

An altruistic ascetic

Can it be?

Yes, he is in our midst

A living, breathing Alchemist!

~Pranishka



Wake Up Warrior

Wake up warrior!
Your light awaits to meet the darkness
On the battlefield of consciousness
Stand with your sword of value and conviction
Or you will be the victim
As your Dawn breaks
Face your demons
For they will be your greatest teachers...
