A FAVORITE QUOTE FROM A NEW DIMENSIONS GUEST
At the moment of commitment, the entire universe conspires to assist you.Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) German poet“I like this quote—which has also been attributed to W.H. Murray—because I’ve had a lot of friends and people who say I want to do something. I want to write a book, for instance, and then they never start the book or follow through. But I also found that when I put out in the world what I want to accomplish, other people get behind me and help me. I don’t quite know why, but they assist me and that is exactly what the quote is saying. One example is that I used to be a scenic designer for the Captain Kangaroo TV series. Every Thanksgiving I had to be in the studio at 6 am, because Captain was the emcee and I had to do a special set for Thanksgiving Day and had to be there pretty early. When I was able to leave, him, the studio, everybody would be home. My family and friends were home watching the Thanksgiving Day Parade and I was still working. When I moved to San Francisco and was able to watch the parade one year, I thought I wanted to march in that parade. I didn’t know how to make that happen. I asked everybody I knew because I believe we’re all six degrees of separation. I even asked people who worked at Macy’s and they didn’t know how to do it. So, I put it on Facebook, because I figured that I have 2000 friends there and maybe one of them might be of help. One friend said, ‘Well, I don’t have any connections, but I’ll see what I can do.’ And she found out who was in charge of the parade at Macy’s. She gave me his name. I emailed him, told him my Captain Kangaroo story and the next thing he writes back saying that usually it’s the families of people who work in Macy’s or bands from schools we invite and then he said, ’But you can be in the parade.’ I think at the moment we commit to something the entire universe conspires to assist us.”

New Dimensions Magnificent Team

New Dimensions has a small but most extraordinary team. On April 1, I had a total shoulder replacement surgery. During the month of March, I worked ahead of time to get all the various things done that I needed to turn into my team in order for them to continue to do what they do so magnificently in the month of April. I am so grateful for their diligence, dedication, and excellence in carrying on with all the details behind the scenes that make this program series available to all of you.
The surgery was successful, I’m not in pain, and I’m on my way to having total mobility in my shoulder once more. Thank you all for your prayers and healing energy that you’ve been sending my way. Please know it has truly made a difference.
Now, I’m asking you to do your part in supporting this work financially. I’m asking you for your bold and generous partnership as we move together for a world that works for all life. Thank you for all you do to help make a better world for all beings, everywhere.
With best wishes and deepest appreciation,


Justine Willis Toms
Co-founder and Host
I’ve been a guest on New Dimensions several times. Justine Toms is a delightful host and one of the rare interviewers who actually reads my whole book before I sit down with her. But even more than that, I love the people she has on. There’s a number of people that are no longer with us in body but their wisdom is still with us. New Dimensions preserves that wisdom so that I can listen at any time when I want to rekindle and have a feeling that they’re still around teaching me wonderful and wise things. So, thank you so much New Dimensions.
