What The Highlander Taught Me

First it’s good to be back. We’re having a lot of wind today. Crazy wind. I’ve always thought of wind as God. I love the wind. Caleb’s all in, as long as he’s being carried. And Shannon loves it.

Let me introduce you to a friend of ours. We see her regularly on our walks. 

She’s pretty beautiful , for those of you who don’t know, although I know many of you do, she’s a Highlander Cow. And she’s got friends that hang with her. But she always has a special nod for those that go by her. 


I of course always talk to and wave and nod to all of the Animals that I see. The other highlander cows told me I talk to much, make too much noise and movement trying to get their attention.



So one day Caleb, Shannon and I were out. I was upset that day and so I had stopped and she was looking at me with that beautiful strong gaze and then I felt it. I felt and saw her Love Light Spirit expand out of her and move towards and into me. 

You know that way Animals make you feel good. But she was showing me how to do it. I’d forgotten I used to do that years ago. 


You can start by closing your eyes and feeling the energy/Love Light God, Breath, Your word, inside of your body then you think of it expanding in your body and then out of your body. And once you’ve done it a few times, it takes a bit of practice it feels really good. I’ll do a blog post on it  another time and explain it better.

She expanded her love and light spirit outside of her body to make me feel better. And to teach me how the Highlanders like to be greeted and understood. Thank you good friend.

As I work on living from that still small voice inside of me, I AM. I realize I’ve spent a great deal of my life not living that way, though thinking I was living that way but actually being the proverbial bull in the china shop. Maybe it should be the proverbial human in the china shop.

I AM / YOU ARE God Love Light Holy Sprit Inside. I am working on living from the God, your word, inside of me every moment of everyday. Like my friend the Highlander does.

And like my Kids do

Out With The Old Allowing I Am

We’re taking November off from the Blog. We’ll be back in December. We’re making some changes in our life. It’s time for me to clear out my old ways of doing and thinking and learn that I AM. You ARE. Be Back first week of December.

The Spirits All Showed Up In My Backyard

I’d Never Seen This Before

‘The Spirits All Showed Up In My Backyard’ 11″ x 15″ Acrylic paint on paper By Christine Kowal

I walked out my side door and my back yard was filled with spirits. It was a rainy morning, and a group of them were huddled in and around and the gazebo. This was a first for me. I didn’t really know what to do. It was a bit shocking and a bit exciting, so I just asked them what they wanted? I figured they’d found me or rather God had sent them my way so  they’d found me for a reason.


And by the way, if it wasn’t God Love Light Jesus Christ the Holy Spirit that had directed them my way, they weren’t staying.


Apparently they had some unfinished business. They wanted me to do something for them. It was very simple, I can’t remember what it was now. Anyway first I asked God if this was alright since my experience with spirits on their way home to God up to this point had always been one on one. And he said yes it was fine. I had to get in my car and go to the shopping mall next door to deliver what ever message it was and by the time I got home they were all gone.

Why am I telling you this weird story right now. Well life is kinda weird right now. It’s certainly very weird for me or has been, I’m starting to understand that I have to shift gears. The life I had once imagined for myself is going to be very different. The world has changed and is changing. And at first I was terrified. 

I read The New Testament and Eckhart Tolle one after the other. The Bible is a living document that speaks to me and teaches me about Jesus and how to live through him. Eckhart Tolle’s book teaches me how to go deeper and understand how to listen to The Kingdom of Heaven Within that Jesus left inside of me and everyone else.

When I can put myself into that place of presence, into the now, take myself out of my mind and all of the things that have happened and everything that might happen and focus on The Kingdom of Heaven Within me, the all knowing Consciousness within, the Holy Spirit, your word, I can feel the stillness and I know I’ll get there from here, where ever there might be.

This is my friend Zalman after his physical body died he/ his spirit is going down a big orange corridor with a big bright yellow white light at the end. Change is hard for me. I like a certain amount of stability or constancy in my life. I will also say I was not always this way. I use to love a great adventure. So I guess this is not our choice we are all on this Great Adventure together. I am finding the key for me is I to believe and have faith and I practice being present and living from The Kingdom of God Within, Consciousness, your word.

Although this kitty looks like she’s almost done. She actually got a few more staples and stayed up for quite a while longer. The Animals Believe and have Faith. I get a lot of my strength from my Animal Family.



These are my two books:

‘The Bible’  NIV  New International Version

‘The Power Of Now’  By Eckhart Tolle

There is a reason that the world is the way it is right now.  I don’t know why that is only God knows. But what I do know is that we’ve gotten off track, I’ve gotten off track. And I’m working very hard to listen to that still small voice inside of me now and in each moment and live on track. 

Love and Light
