A Note From Anne
Dear ,
Anne is still in LA taking care of Lois, her sister, who is now out of the hospital and improving. Anne has only limited internet access, if any, so she's asked me to put together another issue for her. I've pulled some material from Anne's EZosophy blog for your enjoyment. Anne expects to be back on Wednesday, so you should hear from her next week.

Happy "Do What You Want To Do" Day
Today, keep asking yourself, "What do I want to do now?" Avoid
the "have to do's." If you really have something you have to do,
transform your opinion of the task to the "get to do" section of
your mind. A "have to do," when done with resistance, is a burden.
Burdens are psychological and made up through a series of beliefs
that life sucks. Life only sucks when it comes through our filters
of judgment. When we leave life alone to be what it is, it
flourishes.
Don't rush through today making your life a harried "to do" list.
Remember to ask yourself, "What do I want to do?" For several
nights, I have gone to my backyard deck, sat with a fire, and
watched the stars. Last night I laid on the deck, peered through
the canopy of trees, and expanded to life. My dog was beside me as
we partook in the communion. I felt like I was on a wilderness
trip, but I was really in my back yard. This activity has been on
my "want to do list" for a while but I didn't do it. Today I am
being truer to my "want to do" list.
Treasure the pleasure of life and do what you want to do. It's a
refreshing change. Feed your soul. Don't be in a hurry to get
things done or become a sole survivor in life. Be a soul thriver.
Life doesn't hold us hostage; we do that on our own.

Health Tip: Food for Thought
What is your relationship with food? Do you break up and binge,
then make up and vow to eat healthier?
It's tough when someone tells us our life styles are
self-destructive. Yet deep inside we know when we are at war with
ourselves. We participate in food wars (aka eating junk),
wars with friends and others, and wars that attack our self-worth.
Still, when it comes to eating, unless we are drunk, drugged, or
out of touch with reality, we have inklings of what kind of foods
are good to us and for us. Our food problems tend to be more about
staying on track than about amassing more information.
Given the mounting evidence of how physically liberating it can
be to eat fresh, unprocessed foods (see, you knew that didn't
you), wouldn't it be great if there were a thought that would help
you stay on track with your eating? Happy days. There is such a
thought. This amazing thought can help you stay slim, eat well,
and help you maintain your perfect relationship with food. Okay,
maybe that is a little over the top, but, it really is a fabulous
thought. Drum roll: "My health is more important than my
appetite." Isn't that a powerful thought to have when ordering
food, milling around at a party, or grocery shopping? This is a
reminder to us that we value our health.
If you had to rate your relationship with food, would you get a
good rating? There used to be a restaurant report on TV in my area
and the host would give "The Slime Report." The term referred to
slime in the ice box. Some food inspector would come unannounced
to check out the cleanliness of the restaurant. The reporter took
the filthiest restaurants and gave their health scores. It was
gruesome.
You are your health inspector. Don't let your relationship with food be a slime report; make it a health fair. Keep this thought in a special place where it is easily accessible: "My health is more important than my appetite." I'm counting of you, to eat good food. You know you want to, and I hope this thought can reinforce your choice for healthier living. Yum, yum. Eat well and prosper, and may the fork be with you.

What people are saying about Standing in the Dark:
"If as you said, it is not a positive thinking book, then,
however, it is a positive being book, because positive has its own
rewards. You wrote very eloquently, and gracefully about very hard
to cover topics. More than that, your shadow is a light unto us,
Anne, and your night is like a day. I thank you."
– Veronica Nannee, Houston, Texas
"Someone asked me how you could be spiritual and live in the
world. Your book spells it out perfectly."
– Helen Hutchison, Nacogdoches, Texas
Quotes
"Drama does not just walk into your life. You either create it,
invite it, or you associate with people who love to bring it into
your life."
– Unknown
"Don't stumble over something behind you."
– Unknown
"Life does not have to be Perfect to be Wonderful."
– Unknown
"There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way."
– Wayne Dyer
