If you’re reading this, you woke up this morning to a brand new day.
If you’re reading this you have the internet.
If you’re reading this you have a few minutes of time all to yourself to do so.
And if you’re reading this you had a choice to read it or not.
You woke up. You have a connection. You have some time to yourself. You have a choice as to how you use your time.
You’re here.
You’re alive.
And you’re amazing.
Think about that. All blessings and all reasons to be grateful.
Wishing you love and light,

I’ve always found comfort in this song. There are moments in life that cause us stress or worry, yet feeling those emotions doesn’t help the situation. It never does. It takes a leap of faith in knowing that everything will work itself out in time, just the way that it’s supposed to.
Have a beautiful day.
Have faith.
And “let it be.”
Wishing you love and light,

The holidays are different this year with no large gatherings of family and friends, but that doesn’t mean the “different” can’t be good. It may not be the same but we certainly have a choice to make it special.
After all, doesn’t Christmas mean a little bit more?
Life is what you make it and your holidays are what you make it as well. You may not be cooking a large traditional dinner or having to set a table for 12, yet you can choose to make it special. Cook a smaller “non-traditional” dinner and eat it off your best china. Settle in on the couch for a day of binge watching all your favorite Christmas shows. Pour a cup of hot chocolate and FaceTime or Zoom your loved ones that can’t be with you.
It’s different but let’s call it a “different kind of special!” It’s a different kind of holiday and one I’m sure we’ll have some stories to share next year when we’re cooking the big, traditional dinner and setting a table for 12 or more.
“Maybe Christmas,” the Grinch thought, “doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?” Dr. Seuss
Surely if the Grinch can change his perspective so can you!
It may be different this year, but you can still make it special.
You got this.
And you’re doing just fine!

Yesterday I was blessed to see both the sunrise and sunset. Both were absolutely breathtaking.
And it made me think to myself, “This truly is a wonderful life.”
Each day I wake up I say “thank you” because I have been gifted another day, another chance to live it better than the day before, and another opportunity to stop and smell the roses.
And I realized this: “I got this.”
And so do you.
You’re amazing and I’m grateful for all of you.
Live each day to its’ fullest and know that “you got this!”
And you’re doing just fine.
Wishing you love and light,

I know that December can be a difficult month for some, whether it’s personal reasons or simply the pandemic itself coupled with the holidays that just aren’t as they have been, so I’ve decided to try and help as best I can!
Each day throughout December I will be posting an uplifting, positive quote or story. I’m hoping to help anyone who needs to feel better or less alone during these times.
And I’m doing it for all of you who follow me. Your support means the world to me and when I write, I write for all of you!
You’re not alone and you’re not the only one feeling the way that you do.
I’m here for you in whatever way that I can help and I know there are other people who are here for you as well.
After all, “we’re all in this together even though we have to do it apart.”
Wishing you love and light,

I hear so many people say that they can’t wait until this year is over. I get it, it’s been a crazy year with this virus but why wish your precious time away? Why wish a year away that you were gifted to live each day through?
Why not just wish the pandemic away? After all, that’s been the problem, hasn’t it?
I always say that life is a mindset and this is more true than ever. Stop wishing the year away because those are days you weren’t promised but days you were blessed to have. Don’t take any of them for granted.
Wish the pandemic away and do what you can to prevent the spread of it.
Life is short enough as it is so please don’t let this pandemic make you lose sight of how precious each day of your life is. Don’t let the pandemic make you forget to live each day to its fullest.
And don’t let the pandemic make you forget that each day with the ones you love, whether together or apart, is a gift.
Go ahead and wish the pandemic away.
But please don’t wish your precious time away because of it.
Wishing you love and light,
~Anne Dennish~
