[Dialogue] imagery

[Jeanette Stanfield]

Hi Darrell, 
Thank you so much for sharing your wild goose cover and  the Celtic images of the wild goose.  We have geese flying in a wedge 
across the moon on the cover of the latest edition of The Courage to Lead.  This all fits together.  

Thanks again.  I would love to read your account of your spirit journey. 

Go well, 

Jeanette

Why did the Wild Goose speak to those ancient Celtic Christians? To begin with, wild geese aren't’t controllable. You can’t restrain a wild goose and bend it to your will. They’re raucous and loud. Unlike the sweet and calming cooing of a dove, a goose’s honk is strong, challenging, strident and unnerving – and just a bit scary.
