Some days just suck. Let’s face it. There are days (not so long ago) where I find myself all bent-out-of-shape, irritated and basically in a bad mood. I knew I didn’t want to stay there! Overtime I’ve realized if I want my mood to change it is up to me. 😳 How did I change …
We are the ones that have to look ourselves in the eye and tell ourselves the things we need to hear. We are the ones that have to believe them. Love starts here… love starts within. ❤️Ann
We have the power to change our lives simply by changing ourselves. ✨❤️✨ Change yourself, change your life. You’ve heard it and it’s true. It’s the changing ourselves that is the hard part. Denial, fear, or just plain lack of insight keep us stuck in patterns of behavior and thoughts that perpetuate our unhappiness. How …
I believe often that people who judge other people are just distracting (or attempting to distract) their psyche from their own self-judgment, self-loathing, and self-hate. Learning to love, accept and forgive others must first follow learning to love, accept and forgive ourselves. ❤️Ann #selflove #judgingothers #judgingourselves #love

Isn’t it the sad truth that we are taught so much more by our enemies and those who irritate us than those who are within our inner circles and those who we easily love?

We each have treasures tucked inside our hearts and inside our minds. As we discover these treasures inside each of us, even as we uncover them within ourselves, we experience the joy of discovery and the awe of authentic existence. Each of us are brilliantly unique. We are each carrying something within us that cannot …
One of the biggest problems we have as humans in this life is forgetting who we really are. We are not our bodies, our jobs, or our nationalities… we are not our bank accounts, our races or even our religious affiliations… we are more… so much more. We have earthly identities that align with the …
Taking selfies does not make you conceited, vain, self-absorbed, superficial, shallow, any more than not taking selfies makes you gracious, thoughtful, selfless, or a saint. Just say no to selfie shame! (Yes, it’s a thing. Another way that some folks like to put other folks down just to make themselves feel superior). Share you selfies …
Here’s the thing, it is easy to see and to judge other people’s faults and wrongdoings. Super easy. So easy in fact we might assume that we are better than they are… you know, less “guilty”, “annoying” or “wrong”. When we look at ourselves we have a difficult time finding real fault… and even when …
