Love Always,

Love ALWAYS. What does this mean? We are Love. There is no escaping it. Love is our mind, our soul, our body. We were born of Love, a Cosmic Energy of Creativity. The play of Life Upon Itself. Ernest Holmes wrote, “Love is the self-givingness of the Spirit through the desire of Life to express […]

Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled

I have an outlook on all that has occurred and is still occurring in this world of conditions. I believe in the evolution of our soul as individuals and as a planet. I believe that beyond the worldly conditions that something great is unfolding. I believe that the more we turn inward for our answers, […]

Use It or Lose It

Based on my talk at CSL Kaua`i 1/24/21 Last night I had a dream about tomatoes. Funny, since tomatoes are a big part of my upbringing. I grew up in an Italian-American household. I keep tomatoes on my counter (not my windowsill) all the time and use them daily. In this dream, the tomatoes on […]

Turn Away from the Condition

In the teaching called The Science of Mind and Spirit we have a mental tool to use when wanting to change something for the better in our lives. It states to “turn entirely away from the condition.” (Ernest Holmes). This statement is sometimes misconstrued to mean that we are in denial of what is really […]

Easy Does It!

Our subconscious mind merges with the universal subjective, therefore making us universal on the subjective side of life. What does this mean? Well, there is one Field of unlimited potential and possibility. The only way to use it in an unlimited way is to surrender our consciousness of limitation to infinite possibilities. It is a […]

Remember the Stars!

“We do not will things to be done, things are brought into being, not by will but by the power of the self-assertive truth. I love this quote by Ernest Holmes. We can try as much as we want to make something happened; however, will power doesn’t get us very far. A self-assertive truth has […]

What is Truth?

You’ve heard the statement, “There are as many opinions as there are people.” Of course, it’s true. What is happening in our country right now gives us much to have an opinion about. However, opinion is not Truth. Opinion is based on observation. The dictionary defines it as “a view or judgment formed about something, […]

We Were All Helpers

I’ve been here in time and space for 67 years. From the assassination of Pres. John F. Kennedy to September 11, 2001, I’ve experienced violence upon violence in our country and around the world. However, yesterday was the first time that I was deeply frightened. The sight of an angry mob climbing our Capitol walls […]

Discover Yourself

In the Science of Mind teaching, it is stated that “we are left alone to discover ourselves.” In this statement, Ernest Holmes (author, mystic and founder of the Science of Mind) is letting us know that the spiritual evolution of humanity is a discovery of Universal Laws that already exist. We do not create these […]

Welcome 2021!

So, it’s the end of 2020, and I hear many people’s joyous exclamations for the ending to what we consider a more than challenging year. I am not denying that it has been that. I, as a minister, was never trained in the kind of skills I would need to maneuver myself and our Center […]
