*I LOVE THIS ANALOGY* - When *Yahweh* wanted to create *FISH*, he spoke to the *SEA* - When *Yahweh* wanted to create *TREES*, he spoke to the *EARTH*. - But when *Yahweh* wanted to create *MAN*, he turned to *HIMSELF*. - So *Yahweh* said: *"Let us make man in our image and likeness"*. Note: - If you take a *fish* out of the *water* it will *die*; And when you remove a *tree* from the *ground*, it also *dies*. - Similarly, when *man* disconnects from *Yahweh*, he *dies.* 🔆 *Yahweh* is our *natural environment*. We were created to *live in HIS presence.* - We have to be connected to *Him* because only with *Him* does LIFE exist. - Let's stay *connected to Yahweh.* 🔆 Remember that *water* without *fish* is still *water,* but *fish* without water is *nothing* . 🔆The *soil* *without* the *tree* is still *soil,* but the *tree* without soil is *nothing* ... 🔆 *Yahweh* *without* *man* is still Yahweh,* but *man* *without Yahweh* is *nothing* (John 15: 5) 🔆 If this message reaches you and you share it with others, that is called: *EVANGELISM* Yahweh Bless You All🙏

I have to show you this picture. This incredible moment comes from our ranch, @elestriboranch. In this picture, you’ll see one of our mules standing next to an unexpected companion—a wild hog. What’s the story? We believe this hog was orphaned at a young age and, seeking shelter, approached our ranch. Over time, it began spending more and more time with one of our mules. To our amazement, the mule seemed to adopt the wild hog, and they became inseparable. But here’s where it gets even more incredible—when it’s time to gather the cattle, this wild hog joins the mule, acting just like part of the team. It works the cattle alongside the mule with an energy and focus that’s as if it’s one of them. Today, December 28th, is celebrated as “Día de los Santos Inocentes” (Innocence Day) in many countries. While this day has a somber historical origin, it reminds me of two beautiful truths: 1️⃣ Innocence isn’t limited to humans. It can be found in every living being—in their pure, genuine connections and unspoken bonds. 2️⃣ Friendship transcends differences. These two creatures couldn’t be more opposite, yet they’ve formed a bond that defies expectations. They’ve found a way to help each other and thrive together. This story from @elestriboranch is a reminder that no matter how different we might seem, there’s always room for understanding, collaboration, and friendship. Let’s carry this message into 2025: embrace innocence, celebrate diversity, and nurture the friendships that make life extraordinary. What unique bonds have you seen in nature or life? I’d love to hear your stories. #InnocenceDay #UnexpectedFriendships #RanchLife #ElestriboRanch #WildHogAndMule #NatureLessons #CelebrateDiversity

The Manipulating, Consenting, and Truthful Spirits of Disclosure Each of these spirits can be inferred from the expressions and the postures in this image. The woman looking past the others is wondering how she can refrain from disclosing anything that counters her interests. The man looking at what is going on is questioning how well justice will be served in her pledging to tell the truth. The lady looking into her eyes while holding the Bible and pointing upward to its spiritual origin is conveying the importance of truth in our understanding of affairs.      Evidence of the evolutionary origin of the manipulating, consenting, and truthful spirits of disclosure have long been present in the animal kingdom. The manipulating spirit is encountered when a peacock spreads its tail to attract a mate and when the crippled walk of a kildeer leads us away from its nest. The consenting spirit is revealed in a migrating flock of birds and in the hunting behavior of a pack of wolves. We recognize the compelling nature of the truthful spirit when we hear the sunrise crow of a rooster or are awakened by the buzzing of a rattlesnake.      The pros and cons and many forms of each of these three spirits is worth discussing. To that end a more detailed take on these guiding spirits surrounding our disclosures can be found on my webpage https://lnkd.in/dQyamq2B in conjunction with this photo. #OurTruthGalaxies #LeadershipAndTruth #EthicalDisclosure #PhilosophyInPractice

The so-called black sheep of the family are, in fact, hunters born of paths of liberation into the family tree. The members of a tree who do not conform to the norms or traditions of the family system, those who since childhood have constantly sought to revolutionise beliefs, going against the paths marked by family traditions, those criticised, judged and even rejected, these are usually called to free the tree of repetitive stories that frustrate entire generations. The black sheep, those who do not adapt, those who cry rebelliously, play a basic role within each family system, they repair, pick up and create new and unfold branches in the family tree. Thanks to these members, our trees renew their roots. Its rebellion is fertile soil, its madness is water that nourishes, its stubbornness is new air, its passion is fire that re-ignites the light of the heart of the ancestors. Uncountable repressed desires, unfulfilled dreams, the frustrated talents of our ancestors are manifested in the rebelliousness of these black sheep seeking fulfilment. The genealogical tree, by inertia will want to continue to maintain the castrating and toxic course of its trunk, which makes the task of our sheep a difficult and conflicting work. However, who would bring new flowers to our tree if it were not for them? Who would create new branches? Without them, the unfulfilled dreams of those who support the tree generations ago would die buried beneath their own roots. Let no one cause you to doubt, take care of your rarity as the most precious flower of your tree. You are the dream of all your ancestors. - Bert Hellinger

A bestiary is a collection of descriptions or representations of real or imaginary animals which was especially popular in the Middle Ages. In my recent work, I am using the idea of a bestiary to compile a contemporary field guide for developing and drawing Fantasy creatures based on the human figure.

🌟 IF WE WERE MORE LIKE WALLABIES! 🦘 Did you know that Wallabies, those charming relatives of kangaroos, have unique ways of asserting their identity within their groups? They use body language and vocalizations to communicate, maintaining complex social structures and relationships and they all have their own unique personalities. 🦘💬 Drawing from my time working with wildlife, this fascinating fact about wallabies teaches us a crucial lesson about the importance of expressing and asserting our own identities. In human society, much like in the animal kingdom, communicating who we are and what we stand for is essential to our social interactions and personal development. 😎 So, what can we learn from these marsupials? Embrace your unique voice and express your true self. Whether in your personal life or in your career, being clear about your identity and your values helps you forge stronger, more authentic connections. 🫶 Let's be like the wallaby: confident in our place in the world and unafraid to show who we really are. It’s not just about being seen—it’s about being understood on our own terms. 🌟🌈 Stay tuned for more #FunFactFriday where I bring you more inspiring lessons from the wild world around us! #TransformationalCoaching #ManifestationCoach #PersonalGrowth #ExpressYourself #BeAuthentic #Identity #Empowerment #WildlifeWisdom #PathToPurpose

The Wonderful Sack is a legend of the Cheyenne nation and one of the Wihio tales, featuring the trickster figure Wihio, similar to the Lakota Sioux character Iktomi (also known as Unktomi) of the famous Iktomi tales. Although the date of composition is unknown, it is the last of the narrative cycle of Wihio tales. Buffalo Jump, near Ulm, Montana Naawada2016 (CC BY-SA) Wihio shares similarities with many other Native American trickster figures such as Coyote of the Navajo, Nanabozho (Manabozho) of the Ojibwe, and, as noted, Iktomi of the Sioux. The trickster might appear as a villain, a hero, a sage, a clown, or a buffoon but always brings some form of transformation, either for himself, an individual, or the community. The trickster also serves to teach an important cultural value or encourage a certain form of acceptable behavior or, as in The Wonderful Sack , to serve many of these purposes while also providing an audience with an origin tale on where the buffalo came from. There are many Cheyenne legends of the buffalo explaining where they came from and crediting their creation to various entities. In the Origin of the Buffalo , they are a gift given to the people by the kind grandmother figure, a kind of avatar of the divine, while in How the Buffalo Hunt Began , the origin of hunting the animal is explained. These legends, as well as others such as The Wonderful Sack , highlight the importance of the buffalo (American bison) to the Cheyenne and the other Plains Indians. The Cheyenne, Arapaho, Comanche, Blackfoot, Kiowa, Mandan, Pawnee, Sioux, and many other nations all relied on the buffalo as an essential resource. This was clearly understood by the US government which encouraged the extermination of the buffalo in the West, as a means of subduing the Plains Indians, between c. 1840 and 1890. The Wonderful Sack – and other stories like it – are still told today by Cheyenne as a reminder of their cultural heritage and traditions; as well as a potent remembrance of how they survived the genocidal policies of the US government and still remain an intact nation today. #Cheyenne #Buffalo #History #WHE
