Seeing double
When is that a good thing???? I see people do it a lot. Out of their mind, adding in another perspective. Double up. I know the benefits and I also know the risks. I have a sensitivity to iodine and shrimp started to bite me back. I know to back off and let it be a part of my past. I can not live in two worlds down here effectively. No one can. I see these good people say I love you, and then I hate you, in the same year or even the same day! Double talk. I have to smile at the indulgence of such duplicitousness. Look up and see one thing, then look down and see another, then with the gift of the double, the polarity of choices given here, look ahead and form union and community with ONE vision. That is true love that will save you and this world. Nothing less will do.
Nothing but smooth sailing ahead
Earth and her children have come through some rough seas. The storms of choice and freewill are truly book worthy. I know my life is very fun to re-examine, and I marvel at the greatness of the consciousness I embody, even when it is lying quietly beneath the surface. That consciousness is now fully activated, and raising itself to the position where it can do it's best work. My family is healthy and happy and loving, my partner is well and strong and ready to work. My farm is a lighthouse for those seeking a vision from a higher prospective, handy that I have a herd of horses to assist with that. It is time to say thank you and see you again on another sunny day to many. It is time to sail on into the warm winds and beautiful sunsets. I am so glad I made it, thank you Creator for this is truly what you promised.

Date night
Do you do that? Take time to just do YOU two? I heard about it for years, although I finally just got around to trying it. It is so healthy! Letting the phone go, the computer and the TV stays off, the chores left to a trusted person, and off on an adventure together you scoot. Being in this world is busy, very busy. Being together with someone you adore takes that busyness and settles it in to a peaceful place. You can not change the things that are not yours to change, you can change YOU. If you have a friend, a partner, and a good idea, get gone. Vacations are too few and far between, date night is right here, right now and RIGHT ON!

You are your own Goliath
Funny how we struggle and fight and think somehow it is something or someone else doin' it to us. I love the way humans use each other for the growth of spirit that is only needed from within. It is consensual and that makes it forgivable. It is one of the clearest ways we have of seeing our own truth. I personally have used horses that way, the mirror of me, for my whole life and that made it easier for me and on those around me too. When I am healthy and balanced and fearless, I can ride like the wind and do. When I am stressed or confused or frustrated, guarantee I will have a buck or a fall or a nip or a foot crush to wake me up to ME and my Goliath. I know we are in transition and ascending very quickly now, and that is the greatest gift humanity has ever manifested. Knowing that the Goliath way of life and the seeing our problems as colossal is coming to a very loving and beneficial conclusion now. Slay your inner demons, shine a light on every single truth you know for sure, speak it out loud and own every detail of your experience here. YOU are divine in everyway, never forget that, and as you do, embrace the Goliath YOU, you are massive energetically and loving and sharing that with us all will speed this along nicely.
Magical words rule
HALLELUJAH. is one of those words. David wrote it to please the Lord, and it stuck. People use it still today and it raises their spirit. Our words have great and amazing power, spoken with energy which ever kind you use to promote it will create your reality. I love the hallelujah reality of my life. I say it a lot. I sing it out loud and I love the reality that forms here from it. So today Hallelujah, my love is solid and my life is worthy and my future brighter and more inviting then ever before. How about you, say it and see it and be it.

King David was a man of contrasts. He was singlemindedly committed to God, yet guilty of some of the most serious sins recorded in the Old Testament.
David lived a frustrating life, first in the shadow of his brothers, then constantly on the run from vengeful King Saul. Even after he became king of Israel, David was engaged in almost constant warfare to defend the kingdom. King David was a great military conqueror, but he could not conquer himself. He allowed one night of lust with Bathsheba, and it had disastrous consequences in his life.
Although King David fathered Solomon, one of Israel's greatest kings, he was also the father of Absalom, whose rebellion brought bloodshed and grief.
King David's life was a roller coaster of emotional highs and lows. He left us an example of passionate love of God and dozens of psalms, some of the most touching, beautiful poetry ever written.
He killed many of Israel's enemies in battle.
Despite several opportunities, David refused to kill King Saul, God's first anointed king, who was pursuing David out of mad jealousy.
He became friends, like brothers, with Saul's son Jonathan, setting a model of friendship that everyone can learn from.
King David is included in the "Faith Hall of Fame" in Hebrews 11.
David was an ancestor of Jesus Christ. Jesus was often called "Son of David."
God called David a man after his own heart.
He was loyal to Saul, despite Saul's crazed pursuit of him.
David loved God deeply throughout his entire life.
He took a census of the people, willfully violating God's command not to do that.
King David was sometimes lax, or absent as a father, not disciplining his children when they needed it.
God always offers forgiveness for our sins, but we cannot escape the consequences.
God highly values our faith in him. Despite life's ups and downs, God is ever-present to give us comfort and help.

1 Samuel 30:6
David was greatly distressed because the men were talking of stoning him; each one was bitter in spirit because of his sons and daughters. But David found strength in the LORD his God. (NIV)
2 Samuel 12:12-13
Then David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." Nathan replied, "The LORD has taken away your sin. You are not going to die. But because by doing this you have shown utter contempt for the LORD, the son born to you will die." (NIV)
Psalm 23:6
Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever. (NIV)

The gifts of health, happiness and HORSES! OPEN HOUSE March 2nd
My life is here at the ranch, my love is here too. I have practiced being better for 25 years and sharing what I learn and live along the way has been one of my gifts. I have another gift too. It is the restoration of the human spirit using my 11 beautiful horses as energizers and illuminators. They help us on the road the NEW NORMAL to reestablish power and balance and raise us up to a vision we could not see from the ground. Faces in the dirt have a hard time envisioning their next step, let alone their new normal. We share that gift with those in search of it. This Sunday afternoon we are hosting an open house. This will showcase our program and our ponies!! The Redemption Cowboys will be here, sharing their first hand knowledge of their 12 week program here. Come on over and visit if you are looking for the vision we offer. Clubs, halfway houses, kids, families, and injured people love this work, ask our friend Billy! It is from 2-5 pm, come for tea, or a snack and chat with us, I bet you will love it! Hawk's Ridge Ranch, 457 County Road U, Hudson, WI 715-426-7350. See ya then! Dr. Su and Michael too!
