Today life is beautiful…

Today is just an ordinary day in the life of one man on planet earth. And it is also an extraordinary moment in time because today, like all days, life is beautiful. It is so easy to get caught up in the mundane aspects of our lives. Modern life requires many tasks and requires time…

In theory, I love you…

There is no way to actually measure the most important things in life. Love, beauty, happiness, enjoyment and even life itself cannot be measured. We can try. We can for example say life is the collection of atoms that create the physical so let’s measure that. We can and do use the power of science…

A perfect future awaits

Alan Cohen wrote: “Your future isn’t what it used to be.” How true!! Every moment, indeed with every breath – every thought, we are creating a new future. Knowing this makes me realize the responsibilities and the joys of being aware of the Principles of Religious Science. I was talking to someone the other day who’s life seems…

Wednesday is the 29th Anniversary Celebration of the Honolulu Church of Religious Science … I’ve been flooded with memories as this is my “home church.” I actually started studying Religious Science in Glendale, California, and got a good understanding of Religious Science, yet Honolulu, through Rev. Helen Street, was where I grew up. Where I…

A rich life is the best reward…

Did you think money when you read the title? Has rich become synonymous with wealth? Have we lost sight of the rich fabric of life in favor of the fabrics worn by the rich and famous? Maybe, but that does not mean we cannot choose again. I am not sure what it is like for…

Superstition killed the…mood

Ooooooo … it’s Friday the 13th!! It’s only 8:52 AM and already I’ve heard 3 references to Friday the 13th being bad luck… Logically, why should a number, attached to a particular day, be ‘bad luck’? It doesn’t make sense, According to Wikipedia, the legends of Friday the 13 are numerous – maybe starting in…

We are what we think

Truer words were never spoken. In fact scientists believe that human thought and tool development may actually be linked and is in fact what gives us the human spark. What is important about tools and language is that in fact we must plan for some future event that is not happening at the moment and…
