Moving On

There is a song by Stephen Sondheim called Move On. I love this song, and I’ve sung it a few times. I resonate with its message about letting go and moving forward when the time is right. The song carries a feeling of wanting something new and different, of yearning to create or experience something […]

Heart on Fire

Emma Curtis Hopkins, a mystic, healer and author of the 19th and 20th Century, wrote these words: “When the heart is afire with divine love, the soul is illumined, and nothing is impossible.” When I wonder why my life is not moving in a more positive direction, I ask myself if what I am doing […]

Obey Thy Heart

What does it mean to obey thy heart? This is a challenge from Ralph Waldo Emerson that I have been contemplating deeply. We are surrounded by so much scientific information about our hearts and how they are powerful centers of knowing. We are told that our hearts are stronger and more powerful than our brains. […]

Who Am I?

The world is in a state of chaos and many of us are terrified. I, for many reasons, am not. Should I be? There seems to be so much at stake – our very freedom, our democracy, our very life in some cases. The fires in California brought home the impermanence of life. I am […]

Lead by Example

I love my morning walks on the Kealia Path. I do these walks at least three times a week, sometimes four, traveling at least 4.5 miles at a fast pace. Sometimes I jog. I find this to be a time of solace and meditation. People that see me on the path, no that, and although […]

January 6, the Transfer of Power

In about the year 1830 in the United States, primarily in New England, there emerged a philosophical and literary movement that emphasized individual intuition, the spiritual connection between humans and nature, and the belief in the inherent goodness of people. It was called Transcendentalism. The publication of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s essay: “Nature” is often considered […]

Let Go Of Your Story???

I am sitting in the light of a new year and the words that come to me are fearless, authentic and bold. Those words are my intentions this year. I believe that it is possible to live these words and that these words, if lived fully, will have an impact on my life and the […]

Post Christmas Feelings

I just experienced an amazing but different Christmas. Can we accept that even traditions can be different. There is a saying, “Nothing in the world is permanent and we are foolish to ask anything to last, but we are even more foolish not to take delight in it when we have it,” written by the […]

Inward

As I close my 2024 and enter 2025, I understand that the most important journey I can take beginning right now, is the journey inward. Ernest Holmes, in the Science of Mind, wrote this: “In conclusion, what the world needs is spiritual conviction, followed by spiritual experience. I would rather see a student of this […]
