When I ask myself what I really want and when I spend time with myself visualizing that, there is one area I must stay away from. That area is what Mike Dooley calls, the “cursed hows.” In the Science of Mind we call it “outlining” or naming where your good is coming from. Trying to […]

Last night we held our first improvisation class at CSL Kaua’i. It was time to laugh, have fun and get to know each other on a different level. Seventeen people showed up with nothing more than the longing to know and experience something. They weren’t, for the most part,  even sure of what it was. […]

There has been a lot of talk about a feeling of something wanting to come forth in different people’s lives. They are saying things like “I don’t know,” and “It’s a feeling that I need to do something, but don’t know what it is,” etc. In my philosophy, we call this Divine Discontent. A spiritual […]

The question for the week for me is “What Do I Really Want?” I will ask myself this question as I awake in the morning, in every encounter, as I embark on a task, as I think of CSL Kaua’i and its future, and any other time that seems appropriate. I heard about a marriage […]

There is a statement of Truth, “Before they call, I shall answer.” How can that be? How can someone answer me before I call. This passage in Isaiah is letting us know that all the answers are already here. We just have to accept them and welcome them. What a great and comforting knowing that […]

So, here we are in our new beautiful home and the sh-t has hit the fan – literally. It began like this…  We have a big sunken tub and I’d been getting the nudge to use it. It was a strong nudge, not just based on the gift of giving myself a moment of nurturing, […]

This morning I woke up with a full heart. I was thinking of my father again and all that he went through during WWII. (See my blog from May 28). I was struck by the thought of forgiveness and how important it is in our lives. What do I define as forgiveness? I believe it […]

This is the question for the week in James Mellon’s Mental Muscle Spiritual Boot Camp. It is a good one, too. What I am realizing as I move into my week of communication on many levels is this: if I have a clarity of intention and a lot of self-respect and mutual respect for the […]
