I’ve been sitting about a lot the last few days with a bad back.

One advantage of being forced to stop and sit still is it gives us time to think

So I’ve been thinking about how I can get better at communicating with animals, maybe learn new techniques to help them.

This led me to think about what path I need to take to grow more and I decided that I would speak with my first Bernese Ty, who passed away in 1992 and who helps me with my communications.  I was sure he would have words of wisdom for me.  Before I had a chance to do this I was guided to ask my friend Heide’s dog Diesel instead of my Ty.

Here is my conversation with Diesel

Me: “What do I need to do to grow more?”

Diesel: “First, sit on your hands”

Me: “Can you explain please?”

Diesel: “Stop what you are doing and be still.  You’re never still enough”

Me: “Do you mean meditate?”

Diesel: “No, not necessarily. Think! Really think, about who you are, who you want to be and how you can get there.  The path can’t open before you until you identify it.  You are too vague.  Be precise”

 

Thank you so much Diesel

You’re quite right of course, so now I know how I will spend this quiet time.  I will be working out the direction that feels right to go in so that I can learn more and grow.  I am truly blessed to be able to ask these wise animals for guidance.
