WHY DO WE WRITE SONGS?
They are the language we use to share our deepest emotions! When feelings are just too big for ordinary words! Maybe you feel like an eagle flying over the forest below? Try putting that into words!
A SONG IS A POEM OF SPECIAL
THOUGHTS WRAPPED IN MUSIC!

MUSIC FROM
THE SOUL
(Arranged by the 'hit man', the best ever, David Foster)
Unlike a song, a poem has no musicians or instruments so the music has to be in the words. They have to be shaped in a way that wakes up the musicians inside us and they play the music with the instruments of everything we are, our whole beings, our hearts our minds and our souls. We read the words, and how we respond and let them mold us, that's the music. They are word-songs. And what does science say about music? Albert Einstein said:
"...we are souls dressed up in sacred bio-chemical garments and our bodies are the instruments through which our souls play their music."
So according to this musician of physics we have non-physical souls writing the music and our physical lives are the words.
Like the monarch butterfly, we first sing songs on the earth and after we die, we sing songs in the sky. And how we sing our lives now gets us ready for later.
WELL GUESS WHAT? MY SOUL DID NOT WANT TO WAIT UNTIL LATER TO GIVE ME SOME OF ITS MUSIC.
During my 10 year mystic period, it shared 226 thoughts like poem-signposts to guide my way. I hope they will also be uplifting music in your life as they were in mine. Here are two reviews:
Such an amazing book! Christian is one of the best writers of our generation!
I am blown away at how amazing this book is! These poems could have only been inspired by God and I think they will touch and inspire people in all sorts of ways! Each one speaks to me in different ways depending on what I am feeling that day. Christian's words will live on for a very long time and I'm so thankful for his heart and willingness to share these poems with the world! I truly believe they will inspire and touch many people for generations to come!
5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite book of poems! Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2023
I absolutely loved these poems. If it weren't for the fact that I had to stop and contemplate the poems at times, I wouldn't have put the book down. Christian Howard is a remarkable writer, infusing his thoughts with such grace and love that they jump right off the page. The poems of love and devotion are my favorite, but all of the poems made me stop and think and added such beauty to everyday experiences. Although written in the 70s, it doesn't show. The words and thoughts are timeless and very relevant today. In fact, the poems regarding social circumstances and happenings are as fresh as if written right now.
SO WHAT'S THIS ABOUT? LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
Nothing lives without love. And during my ten-year mystic period when my Soul gave me these poems, I was in love with God - not some bearded senior citizen but the God who invented butterflies, love, quantum physics. time and gravity - eternity's CEO, and these are like one of the love-songs of our relationship. I hope they will also be like love-gifts to your life as they were for mine.
AND HOW IMPORTANT IS LOVE? Jesus said God is love and he who lives in love lives in God and God in him.
And some quantum physics - "I am in ye, ye are in me and we are all together in the Father". We are all part of Eternity.
EINSTEIN WROTE.
Love is God and God is love. If we want our species to survive, if we are to find meaning in life, if we want to save the world and every sentient being that inhabits it, love is the one and only answer.
HERE ARE PHOTOS THAT SHOW ANIMALS AS WELL AS HUMANS NEED AND ARE NOURISHED BY LOVE.
THINK OF THESE POEMS AS HUGS FROM MY SOUL TO YOURS
to inspire you and open some pathways to your soul as they did mine. Both Jesus and Einstein said God is not a person but a FORCE. And what is that? THEY BOTH SAID GOD IS LOVE . Everything needs love so this would mean that everything that lives anywhere in a physical world or the spiritual world of our souls needs God.
AND SPEAKING OF WORD-SONGS, OUR COUNTRY IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LOVE SONGS EVER WRITTEN!
It was composed by my favorite song writer, the CEO of Eternity where our souls come from, the Force that existed before the universe, before night and day, before up and down.
Our beautiful planet and its life are songs without words we see, hear, and feel with the eyes, ears and heart of our souls. And we never had to ask!
EVERYTHING CAME FROM LOVE and for all of us here, life is all about finding love because that is the only fuel for our journeys home after we die. SO FOR ALL OF US HERE, WE HAVE TO BECOME A WORLD-TEAM SPEAKING THE SAME LANGUAGE!
FROM HUMANS TO ORCAS, ORANGUTANS TO DEER AND RACOONS
everything needs love. And if God is love, this means everything needs God. So remember -
GOD CAN'T RUN OUT!
And we can never get too much love!
Thank you for letting me share my soul's love with you!
