Reviewer: LittleBit

First off, this is NOT a book about positive thinking - it is about positive feelings and beliefs.

As you say Mr. Luther, "I have not been bound by the five categories of I WANTS that the book suggests. I find those too limiting and self-serving. I missed a category about spiritual development. For example I want to be more loving, trusting, generous, forgiving, patient, etc. And I missed a category about compassion and justice for the poor, oppressed, and the earth."

When you begin to experience the well being as described fully in this book, you already are spiritually developing, you already are more loving, trusting, generous, forgiving, patient, etc. It just comes with the well being you learn to experience in this book. Well being, God, Spirit, Source, whatever you call it, is ALWAYS with you, but we have to learn again to connect with it and that's what this book teaches. Therefore, these are not listed as "categories." And until you can be selfish enough to get yourself to this point, then you cannot give to others or help others in a way that truly makes a difference.

That is YOUR belief about illness. It is not mine or others who think differently than you do. As you say, "don't expect to be cured because you follow the teachings of this book," but if you don't EXPECT or BELIEVE you will be cured, then, of course, you will NOT be cured. And that's not just about dis-ease, it's about everything in your life.
