WHY DO WE WRITE SONGS?
...to share our deepest emotions, like when
feelings are too big for just words.
Feel like an eagle flying over the forest below?
How do we put that into words!
A SONG IS A POEM OF SPECIAL
THOUGHTS WRAPPED IN MUSIC!
SO WHERE'S THE MUSIC IN POEMS?
Like songs, they are also special thoughts but
the music has to be in the words.
HOW THEY AFFECT US IS THE MUSIC!
AND WHAT DOES SCIENCE SAY ABOUT MUSIC? HERE'S WHAT 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 words and our physical lives are the music. And our souls don't just put us here and go away - they help us.with inspirations. I wanted evidence that our souls play musics through us And I found it.
Paul McCartney of the Beatles said his song YESTERDAY came in a dream. The brilliant inventor Tesla who had 300 patents said his mind was just a 'receiver'. On his deathbed, Bach said to his wife: "Don't cry for me because I go where music is born." Puccini said he did not write Madame Butterfly, that God wrote it and chose him to be the doorway to share it with the world. I had a similar experience - I was given 226 poems that came to me like dictation one after the other. So these are not mine. My soul sang some of its music through me so it can now sing in all lives,
I released them as a book that has 56 5-star reviews on Amazon as well as 5-star reviews on he OnlineBookClub. It is getting world-wide acclaim showing it is doing what my soul wanted - to inspire and uplift everyone, The excerpt here is from a professional review sums up its effect. BTW At 4.8 stars it is the only non 5-star review for the book
There are books that inform and then there are books that transform. Christian Howard’s book unmistakably belongs in the latter category.To read it is to walk briefly beside someone who has not only looked deeply into the mysteries of life and God but who has also been shaped, humbled and illuminated by the answers that came from within. I found From My Soul to Yours to be less a book I read and more a space I entered. (For full review click here.)
5.0 out of 5 stars Such an amazing book! 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! Christian's words will live on for a very long time...! 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! 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.
YOU KNOW HOW I THINK OF THESE POEMS?
When you explore a National Park, you stop at scenic points and maybe take photos along the way. These 226 poems are like scenic points for the heart and mind along my journey to reach the divine. Now it's your turn. Imagine God inside you and leading you to all you can be on your journey Home. Let them now make music in your life as they did in mine.
SO WHAT'S THIS ABOUT? LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
AND HOW IMPORTANT IS LOVE? Beautiful Jesus said God is love and those who live in love live in God and God in them.
EINSTEIN WROTE.
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.
LOVE IS EVERYWHERE AS YOU CAN

THE 226 POEMS, EVERYTHING SHOWN HERE, ITS ALL ABOUT LOVE! IT'S ABOUT OUR SOULS SINGING BEAUTIFUL SONGS INTO OUR LIVES. WE JUST HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO LISTEN SO OUR HEARTS CAN BE OPEN FOR WHAT OUR SOULS ARE WAITING TO GIVE.
FROM HUMANS TO ORANGUTANS, TO DEER AND RACOONS, AND THE ORCA SO SAD AT LOSING HER CALF, SHE PUSHED IT FOR 1000 MILES BEFORE LETTING IT GO, everything needs love.
Everything that lives begins life with a mother's love. And since God is love, this means all that lives begins its life with God.
Thank you for letting me share my soul's love with you!
