SPHERES 
F LIFE.
the quiet unity between life, nature, mind and soul
An evolving constellation of poetry, writing, philosophical inquiry, music and live experiences, begun in nature’s silence and still unfolding.
echo
What if we are each a star in the Universe, yet find ourselves moving along the outer orbits of consciousness, identified with the egos and personas we have created for the world?
What if our life on Earth is the gift of opportunity… to notice, to learn, to journey inward, toward our ever-present true Self?
And what if our collective wisdom exists to make us aware of our deeply inherent interconnectedness… the very essence of peace, love and humanity?
first published work
soul whispers
Thirty poems, written across more than two decades of listening, unfolding into a single arc of life.
One·Dawn of Two·Zenith·Autumn Mirror·One, a Remembrance
These are poems in an older tradition than most contemporary verse. The Sea speaks. Mother Earth replies. A butterfly remembers a life from 1921. A boy's soul dreams of oneness. Each is a small mystical moment, and a real memory of a particular instant of noticing.
Short, unhurried, written to be returned to: a book for the nightstand, for the walk by the water. Open it anywhere. The whispers have always just been there.
With reflections by Kyriacos C. Markides, Richard Boyatzis, Artemis Evangelidi, Thales Panagides, and Aleen Andreou.

Floating…
Like a leaf of a tropical palm tree
On a transparent crystal sea
Where no one may reach
except for the Soul to whom this dream belongs
This imagination of reality
with no galaxy of time!

the author
Walid Khabbaze
Walid writes in nature's silence, often by hand, and usually when something arrives that he cannot quite explain.
Since he was a boy, whenever something was on his mind, he would walk alone, especially by the sea, knowing, somewhere deep inside, that the answers would come. They often did. The first book he ever bought was on astronomy; and in those years of wandering and wondering…
Four poems arrived, without his understanding of where they had come from, or why. The very first was titled ‘Life.’ Writing became a way of listening: of exploring the subtle patterns that shape our experience, and the quiet interconnectedness between life, nature and mind.
In time, these reflections flowed into the talks he gave and the themes he curated for mindX, a purpose-led speaking platform he created to connect people on a deeper level. Soul Whispers is the first published work within Spheres of Life, an evolving constellation of poetry, writing, philosophical inquiry, music and live experiences.
In gratitude,
SoL music
the poems, rendered in sound
An orchestral, cinematic embodiment of Soul Whispers: the same arc, also carried by music.
Created with Chris Cara, a lifelong friend, musician, composer and producer. Twelve movements drawn from the collection.
life’s loop
the pattern beneath the poems
A philosophical inquiry, still unfolding, into how life organises itself through recursion, relation, and return.
If Spheres of Life is the poetic cosmos, Life’s Loop is its hidden grammar: the intuition that being, knowing, meaning, and world continuously arise through relation. An open inquiry, surfacing as essays.

“The water begins to ‘perceive’ the rock,
and the rock ‘perceives’ the water…
Is nature creating its own reality,
just as we are creating ours?”

The work has always been meant to be felt together: read aloud, heard, shared in one space.
The first Spheres of Life live evening brings the poems and the music into the same room for the first time.
