When I was four years old I had an epiphany: Life’s essence is spiritual, big, good –  not limited. Life is not contained in things or bodies: It is everywhere. I was four and I sensed in my childlike way that everything is a miracle and that everyone is important. I remember that sacred moment in my grandparents’ house vividly as if it were yesterday – and it probably was.

Over time discovering the Bible along with Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy, spending time with listening, wondering, pondering, reading and writing, put me on a spiritual path, and I continue to learn and grow every day. I am seeking and finding, trying to love deeper and serve better every day. I am continuing to build a dictionary of spiritual terms for my practice and gathering experience in the art of healing. 

There is a definition of the word “good” that is foundational to my practice. It is from the book Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy.

Good. God; Spirit; omnipotence; omniscience; omnipresence; omni-action. (p. 587:19)

Building a practice on this profound truth is rewarding and has opened up paths for myself and for others. I have noticed that we find a footing in life when we open up and sincerely desire to share what we have with others. When we want to see others thrive as we are yearning to do. Spiritual intuition tells me that the connectedness of being is continuous and always happening. Spiritual perspectives change the view – and our experience.  I observe that when living for all mankind and working for humanity, we discover a “joy which finds one’s own in another’s good” (Mary Baker Eddy).
