“Today I Can Do Anything”

/ Anne Dennish / Leave a comment

I used to pass these pictures on my way to work back in New Jersey. I was lucky enough to always catch the red light at the intersection in Asbury Park where these, and a few other pictures, graced the side of the building.

Today, as I listened to a Queen song, this picture came to mind. It was a reminder every day that I went to work, and a reminder now, that “today I can do anything!” 

And I definitely needed this reminder today. Life has handed me quite a few ups and downs in the last few months coupled with a few endings which I know will lead to some awesome beginnings! That’s the thing about life, the endings simply mean that the time is up for that experience and when we can learn and grow from them it can lead to a beautiful new beginning just waiting on the horizon.

You have to believe that “today you can do anything” and in order to do that, begin to “create” the circumstances needed to do it. 

It feels good to be writing again. I miss it so much and this picture reminded me that I am, indeed, a writer and one that shares her personal experiences in the hopes that it can make a positive difference in someone’s life and possibly in the world.

I’ve missed you all so much and hope that “today I can do anything” and it’s about time that I started to “create” again.

I love you all!

Wishing you love and light,

“It’s A Wonderful Life”

Tonight I’ll be heading out with friends to the Paramount Theater in Asbury Park, New Jersey, to see the movie, “It’s A Wonderful Life.” I watch it every year on TV, as so many of us do, yet tonight will be a real treat to see it on the big screen.

It’s the perfect holiday movie and a reminder for all of us that our life affects the lives of others. Think about that…who would you be without the people you’ve met along this journey and who would they be without you? 

There are some of you who have lost loved ones and are missing them, especially during the holidays. It’s good to remember them and the memories they left you with, but think about how their lives impacted yours. Who would you be or where would you be in your life if you never knew them?

And then look around at the people that are still here on this Earth. Think about them as well and ask yourself the same question: “Who would you be or where would you be in your life without them?”

You see, we have a chance to learn the same lesson that George Bailey did: “each man’s life touches so many other lives.” Make your life a “wonderful life,” because it is.

Remember that today and always.

It’s a good thing.

Wishing you love and light,

“It’s September 12th”

The world remembered September 11th yesterday and today we can take a breath and remember the world united on September 12th. 

Today is a new day, so let’s make it count.

Spread kindness wherever you go, smile at a stranger, and find gratitude in your life at this very moment.

It’s a brand new day filled with endless possibilities.

Go out and mark your mark in life and make a difference in the life of another.

It’s a good thing.

Wishing you love and light,
