Get Back on the Positive Train

Yesterday was quite a day. Between responding to the Florida shootings, sitting with the aftermath, and other negatives that came up, I realized a few things. It doesn’t help anyone or anybody when we are negative about anything. Last night, I found myself falling into the trap of complaining, even though I was calling it […]

They Don’t Want Our Prayers…

They don’t want our prayers in Florida. This statement came from someone after the latest school shooting. I heard that and I don’t blame them. How many prayers can we say and still not do anything about the lives that are lost each day to gun violence? How can we just sit here and pray […]

A Little Bit of Rita…

If you would like to introduce your friends to the New Thought Philosophy in a simple concise way or find out more about it yourself, then my little book This Thing Called Treatment is for you. It is a simple read and logically follows the progression of the New Thought Movement as it relates to […]

Need an Upgrade?

I’ve been thinking a lot about upgrades and expansion while traveling this past month. I just like upgrades. My husband always lets me know that when I travel I should travel like a queen. I go with this attitude. Now, I haven’t totally upgraded myself to a first class consciousness, but I do accept upgrades […]

No Such Thing as Ego?

What if there were no such thing as ego? I woke up with that question this morning. First, I have to define what I mean as ego. To me, it is the self that finds itself apart from everything. It is separation. It struggles for survival by making sure that it is seen, heard, and […]

Have a Scientific Day!

Yesterday, I gave a message at our Center titled “Where You Comin’ From?” When I get up to talk, although I have thought ahead and somewhat outlined what I want to say, I always allow myself to relax into my message and let it flow from within, trusting that what I say is perfect. As […]

What Do They Think of Me?

While I was traveling I watched a documentary about the famous Steven Spielberg. Many of us know that we was clear about being a filmmaker since the age of 16. He also almost backed away from it after watching Lawrence of Arabia, because he thought he could never do anything as great as that. However, […]

Homeward Bound

I am on my way to my physical home on Kaua’i. I have had an amazing trip. I’ve fulfilled my goal of staying in the present moment and knowing I am always in the perfect place at the perfect time. I’ve stayed in the flow, and did not get caught up in trying to push […]

Spirit is Spontaneous

Ernest Holmes wrote, “Individuality must be spontaneous; it can never be automatic. The seed of freedom must be planted in the inner most being of man, but like the Prodigal Son, man must make the great discovery for himself.” Yes, we are individuals and our individuality is spontaneous – self-choosing. Our individuality makes up our […]

There is Always MORE…

I had the most amazing day yesterday. My sister and I decided to go into NYC to see a Broadway show. For some of us, it might have seemed stressful. It was snowing and it was about 30 degrees. I was in NYC walking, slipping sliding on the slick sidewalks, pressed up again people in […]
