An Affair to Remember

July 1 is an affair to remember in my life. Do you remember the movie An Affair to Remember? Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr planned to meet at the top of the Empire State Building on July 1 to begin a lifetime together. Tragically, she stepped off the curb and was struck by a car, […]

First Class…First Cause

Who has ever flown First Class? I have, and I love the experience of the extra touches that First Class offers. Especially on longer trips like the one from here on Kaua’i to the Mainland. What if First Class was not a ticket on an airline or a destination, but a state of consciousness? What […]

When Things Look the Worst…

There is a quote by the mystic and teacher Ernest Holmes that states: “When things look the worst is the time to do your best work.” He goes on to tell us to “never deviate from the One,” and then challenge us to “throw ourselves with abandon into the limitless sea of receptivity.” This probably […]

To Dream the Impossible Dream

“We have the capacity through our imagination and our inner Knowing and wisdom to think beyond the 3D world, to realize that the 3D world is a world of illusions formed through our perceptions.” I’ve been challenged by others about this quote.

Spiritual Pride?

Spiritual Pride What does it mean? Am I spiritually proud? I remember a quote by Ernest Holmes that hung over the door in our Center in Kapaa that said, “Whoever you are, be proud. You are a Divine idea in the Mind of God.” At first glance, this quote would seem dualistic, but when we […]

The Wisdom of Change

Born to Change At times in my life, I have been known as being “all over the map.” If you haven’t heard the expression, it means that you just can’t seem to settle down with one thing in life. For me, I was always searching. Was I a singer? Was I an actress? Was I […]

When an Elder Dies…

“When an elder dies, a library burns to the ground.” African Proverb I was preparing for my online morning meditation. I rejected this quote at first. It seemed final and dreary and lacked inspiration. However, I couldn’t let it go. Something within me needed to speak to it for my ancestors. I understand that when […]
