What’cha say…Marianne’s Musings 

This afternoon I sat down down to write a post reflecting on the events of yesterday. And you know what? The only thing I got is a box of chocolate (and a cute side braid that shows how long my hair is)! Literally. In this moment I have no reflective words. That’s...

Two things I love: Wonder Woman and crystals. Put both together and I’m happy as a little clam (are clams happy ). As usual, the climax of the movie had a Wonder Woman exhortation worthy of pondering AND quoting. “You cannot have it all. You can only have the truth....

I have a tattoo on my left wrist to prove it! I’ve always felt more at home in countries that require a passport than my own hometown. Since about mid-April I’ve not allowed myself to think of far off places. I put my suitcase up and packed *all things travel* out of...

Your true love I'm about to become as I give you the gift of how to STOP comparing yourself to others! I heard someone say comparison is the thief of joy. True. Comparison is also the thief of self. Here are some observations I’ve made. 1. I usually compare myself to...

When I was a kid, Christmas morn was the best morning of the year! I’d wake up to a day full of presents and food (both things I love tremendously). But I grew up. And I learned that sometimes during the *most wonderful time of the year* the most un-wonderful things...

In a few minutes I’m headed out to get beach pictures taken while wearing sequins! But before I do I wanted to give you all a sneak peak into the “Letting Go” workshop I’m creating! I told you all earlier that this weekend I was going to work through my own program....

Aloha! Yes, I’m writing this post while basking in the island sun. I’m going to go ahead and say it. At times I absolutely lead a charmed life . But that doesn’t mean that it’s not difficult sometimes. This week I’ll be putting the final touches on a new group...

Earlier this week I got some *news.* It was really hard news. News that invoked strong feels and lots of tears. News that was 100% out of my control. News that flat out suuuuucked. Yes, this week I got some *news.* And so, I’ve been thinking about what does one do...

This is another long post, but it also might be the most important homework assignment you’ll ever get. Have you ever read something that made you let out an audible “ohhhhhhh.” Last night I found *this* and I can’t stop thinking about it. How many times do we hang on...
