I am writing to tell you to keep up the excellent work. We
download and print out your Monthly Newsletters at work and
discuss your articles at coffee break and lunch time.
It is a race to see who downloads it first. We enjoy your
common sense approach and uplifting articles. See you at coffee

Thank you for vote of confidence and nice words. We are
always pleased to be a part of peoples’ coffee visits.
If there is any subject that you would like us to cover,
please drop us an e-mail and let us know. We love and thrive on
your input, suggestions and ideas. Thank you, Thank you, Thank

Dear Anne Marie:
We are having a debate. Are you the same Anne Marie Evers
that used to have an office in Port Moody about ten years ago? I
think it was called something like Anne Marie & Company.
I have a pink book that I bought from you and I still have
it. I read on the Internet that you have published a recent
edition. How can I get a copy of it? I must admit I used the
pink one so much that it is rather worn.
I especially used the Cup Emptying Exercise on my former
boyfriend and it was so helpful. I am now in a wonderful
relationship and very happy. I really believe that Affirmations
do work if one is willing to put in the time and energy.
I hope you are the same person. Linda Smythe
Dear Linda:
Yes I am the same person and yes, I did have an office on St.
John’s Street in Port Moody around l989 and it was called Anne
Marie & Associates.
Since that first book you have, I have published three more.
My fourth edition was just printed last fall. You can receive a
copy of my latest edition of Affirmations, Your Passport to
Happiness by e-mailing me your name and address.
It was so nice to hear from you. Please contact me again. I
love to hear when happy things are happening to my readers. Anne
Marie
Dear Publisher:
How do I go about joining your Prayer Affirmation Group? I
believe in prayer and the power of believing, but I seem to need
a jump start in my life at this particular time. Jenine
Dear Jenine:
We would be delighted to have you join our Prayer Affirmation
Group. It is very simple. All you need do at 11:00 o’clock
British Columbia time, is to close your eyes and say to
yourself,
"I now join in with Anne Marie and her group. We send
healing to the sick, prosperity to the poor, love to the lonely
and hope to everyone. We also send Divine Guidance to our World
Leaders and healing to Mother Earth. I affirm for myself and
family ______________________________________
_________________________________________________________
(whatever it is that you desire). Thank you, Thank you, Thank
you!
And so it is! Amen."

US FILM MAKER DISCOVERS VANCOUVER ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF 3D
Animation
Work On New Positive-Themed Children’s Animated TV Show To
Start Soon!
Written by Anne Marie Evers,
Phoenix Columnist and Contributor
John Joseph Kennedy, President & CEO of John Kennedy
Enterprises Inc. and Tipperary Films, LLC named his film
production company after his family ancestral homeland of
Tipperary, Ireland. However, he feels that he has found the ‘Pot
of Gold’ at the end of the rainbow here in the Vancouver area.
Mr. Kennedy, the creator of the Royal Critters Whale Magic
animation project for children had been on a year long search
for the perfect 3-D animators, writers and producers for his
project. After a fortuitous search on the Internet last fall
from his home in Charleston, South Carolina looking for 3-D
animation studios, Mr. Kennedy said that Vancouver came up over
and over as the number one place for 3-D animators, schools and
studios.
After his research, Mr. Kennedy contacted several animation
studios in Vancouver area and the Vancouver Film School and
scheduled appointments to meet with them. In mid November, he
traveled to Vancouver and was scheduled to be in the area for
only one week. Due to the overwhelming response and his good
luck, Mr. Kennedy has not gone home. He has spent the last three
months living in West Vancouver and has interviewed more than
sixty animators for his project. In December he formed an
alliance with a group of Canadian Animators and began
pre-production of the Royal Critter Whale Magic television pilot
and series. After ten years of meticulous research and
development of the Royal Critters project, Mr. Kennedy feels
that he has had the good fortune of finding the very best 3-D
animators right here in Vancouver to bring his dream to life.
He has cultivated voice talents in addition to the ones he
has, story writers, book writers, recording studios and
investors here in Vancouver. He recently engaged the Canadian
Band Mossy Ledge to create some of the musical tests for the
project.
Mr. Kennedy’s project is global and appeals to the child in
all of us in a positive way. The whales and dolphins of Whale
Magic are the earth’s messengers of love and hope through
positive scripts, children’s books, music and affirmations.
John Kennedy says, "Another one of the many blessings that
I found here in the Vancouver area is to have collaborated with
you, Anne Marie Evers, on the story of the Pink Whale, others
and the Whale Magic 3-D Trading Cards.
The leading characters of the Royal Critters Whale Magic
project are Prince Bouyant, the Prince of Whales and Princess
Eviana, the Princess of Whales. The royal cast of characters
also include Prince Patches, Prince Sky, Lord Rippletail and the
Dolphins, Amethyst and Indigo, the Duke and Duchess of Yorkies,
Princess Bee, Jester Crab and many more delightful characters.
The whales and dolphins of Whale Magic spout whale mail which is
their own brand of e-mail. Live action film clips magically
appear in their electronic mist to educate children about the
environment, the ocean creatures and the majesty of the ocean
kingdom.
Mr. Kennedy conceived the idea of the parody in l985 when he
discovered he had misspelled the names of Charles and Diana, the
Prince and Princess of Wales on a package he sent to them. Mr.
Kennedy received a thank you letter from Buckingham Palace in
response to gifts he had sent Prince William and Prince Harry.
Upon reading this royal thank you and noticing the stationery
letterhead, Mr. Kennedy realize that he had actually addressed
the gifts to the Prince and Princess of Whales. By humorously
turning this simple faux pas into a positive idea, a delightful
dream has been born for Mr. Kennedy and investors of this
well-received project.
After spending time in Vancouver, Mr. Kennedy came to another
realization. He said, "It occurred to me that after I was
here for awhile that I had come full circle with the project
from its inception with the British Royal Family to finding
myself living in the middle of the British Properties." Mr.
Kennedy felt it was also the calling of the whales that brought
him here to this area. This is an area that launched one of the
first environmental programs to save the whales. "People
here are very concerned and compassionate about the plight of
whales and dolphins and I have learned a great deal from them.
Their commitment to protect and preserve these awesome creatures
has only strengthened my personal goal to raise the
consciousness of humanity to save these vital and evolved
creatures. It is no mistake that they, (the whales) have sent me
here. Mr. Kennedy says with a smile, this is a perfect example
of Whale Magic."

The Affirmation Column by Anne Marie Evers
Keep your e-mails, questions and comments coming. We are
pleased to answer your inquiries and give information about the
Affirmation Process. Affirmations are similar to prayers, wishes
or goals only they are more structured and specific. To affirm
is to make firm. Simply put, the basis of all Affirmations in
Positive Thinking.
Dear Anne Marie:
I have your book and have read some of your articles on the
power of Affirmations and I am happy to report that they do
work! Now I would like to know if I can use affirmation power to
(a) help my dog feel better and improve her health and (b) help
my house plants grow? I need help on both issues as soon as
possible. My beautiful German Shepherd Dog, Sheba is very
listless and not interested in eating. She seems to be losing
weight and her eyes look so sad. I look forward to your reply,
Thanks Much! Clarence
Dear Clarence:
I am delighted that you re using Affirmations in your life
and that they are making a definite difference in a positive
way. The answer to your first question is "Yes, you can use
the power of Affirmations to bring your dog back to good
health." I would suggest, of course, the first thing you do
is take Sheba to the Veterinarian to find out what is wrong with
her. You can do the following procedure in addition to what your
Veterinarian suggests. When you do Healing Affirmations for your
pet, you will not experience any difficult in their belief
structure as they just accept. When your pet Sheba say lovingly
and with great faith and expectancy, "Sheba you are
healthy. Your health improves daily. You are happy, healthy and
full of life and vigor." Then close your eyes and see Sheba
in perfect health romping and playing. Say silently to God,
Universal Mind or whomever you believe in, "Thank you,
Thank you, Thank you three times. Whenever you think of Sheba
during the day, hold her in perfect health. Bring in the five
physical senses. See how happy and healthy she looks. Hear her
barking in a healthy ,excited manner. Smell her healthy coat.
Feel how she feels when you hold her close to you and to
complete the five senses for taste pop a tasty mint into your
mouth or take a drink of fresh, sparkling water. She already has
that perfect health, it just has not happened yet!
We had a family dog years ago what we were told was so ill
that she should be put down. I did the above Affirmation
Procedure faithfully. I added Vitamin E and Flax Seed Oil to her
diet. She had no idea that I was doing an affirmation when I
patted her lovingly but she certainly enjoyed it. Within six
months when we took her back to the Veterinarian she had
improved so much that he was amazed and could not believe it was
the same. dog. Her coat was now bright and shiny and she jumped
up on the examination table instead of having to be lifted up
there.
To answer your second question, "Yes, you can use the
power of affirmations to help your house plants grow and
maintain good health. What I would suggest is that you do an
experiment to increase your faith. Buy two identical plants and
mark the bottom of one plant with a felt pen. Then proceed as
usual with the watering and fertilizing procedure with one
slight difference. With the plant you have marked take a few
extra minutes every morning and evening closing your eyes and
visualizing it being healthy and growing rapidly Touch it
lovingly and say "Dear plant (rubber plant, etc.) I now
affirm that you grow quickly. You are beautiful and perfect in
every way. You are healthier and stronger every day. Thank you,
Thank you, Thank you."
Before you water your plant hold the water in your hands for
a few minutes and bless it asking it to assist the plant in its
healthy growing process. When I did this exercise I put a drop
of tea into the water. Do this procedure for about three months
and then notice the difference between the two plants. I would
be so pleased to hear about the end result. Remember the success
of your results depend on the amount of time, energy and faith
you put into your exercise.
To all those readers who contacted me about the wonderful
success of the Short Form Money Affirmation -
I am still receiving testimonials from people who are using
the Short Form Money Affirmation Method that I wrote about in
the February column One reader even found a coin in a collection
from his father’s estate that was worth $20,000. He says he
found it after he had written out the Short Form Money
Affirmation seventy-seven times for a two week period. He is
thrilled and tells anyone who will listen about this procedure.
Another reader received a totally unexpected large raise at work
and still another reader won a jackpot at the Casino.
To recap, if you missed it in February’s issue here it is.
--
If you are short of money, take a piece of paper and write
the date on the top and the words Money to Me. Underneath write
an abbreviated form - For Example $tm seventy-seven times daily.
It is most important to say out loud, "Money to me" as
your write the abbreviated form seventy-seven times. Please tell
us your success story!

Dear Caroline:
I think my best girlfriend has a crush on my beau, Brian.
What are the signs? Do you think I am imaging it or could it be
real? She always asks about him and when she does she gets a
funny look on her face, almost dreamy. I want to spend time with
her, but the conversation always seems to center around Brian. I
am hoping she will meet someone soon. In the meantime, what do I
do?
Just Wondering .... Pam
Dear Pam:
If your intuition tells you that your girlfriend has a crush
on your man then believe it. I suggest you have a talk with her
about it. Start off saying "I feel you have a crush on my
boyfriend." She may deny it. Then tell her you would
appreciate it when you and her are together that you would not
talk about Brian and have other conversations. It is best to
discuss it now as this can build up and then you might say
things in anger. Remember best friends are around sometimes
longer than boyfriends. Good Luck!
Caroline
Dear Caroline:
I will be moving in with my girlfriend within the next three
months. We have talked at length about our finances. She wants
her own bank account (mad money, she calls it), but I don't
think that is fair unless I have one too. We get along great in
every other department, but the money business. She spends money
on her friends like it is going out of style. I am afraid that
we will end up in the poor house. What would you suggest? Dan
Dear Dan:
I am afraid you will end up in the poor house as well. Your
girlfriend is a spendthrift and needs counseling. This is the
same kind of addiction as being a gambler. You already know it
is not going to work. This money situation will only get worse.
Do not move in with her. You both cannot agree on the money
situation. I believe it is best to marry rather than living
together. It is more of a commitment. I would suggest you find a
girlfriend who is compatible in every way. Happy Hunting!

Is it judgment or perception?
Is it insult or insight?
Is it criticism based upon
What's wrong or what is right?
Do we really know the difference
Between honesty and lies?
Do we recognize duplicity
When it's veiled beneath disguise?
Can we trust our hearts to know what's real
And be sure of gut reactions?
Can we make clear-cut decisions
Based on inner satisfactions?
Can we ever really know if God
Is pulling all our strings?
Are we puppets to our feelings
Or true masters of all things?
Are we here on earth so to discern
The purpose of duality?
Will we ever really know the whys
And wherefores of reality?
If we listen to our hearts and souls
'Midst all this other clatter
We can hear that still small voice within
And nothing else will matter.
We can rise above the petty thoughts
To know true inner peace
And cause the judgments we may have
To suddenly all cease.
We will understand the call within
And know when we are tried
We will realize the foolishness
Of trying to run and hide.
So let it all hang out and BE
In all its messy glory
Tis all a judgment anyway
And that is just MY story. |
By Sandi I.M. Capobianco
Our thoughts determine our reality. A quote from Virgil
states, "They can because they think they can."
Another wonderful and pertinent quote, by Ralph Waldo Emerson,
is, "The ancestor of every action is a thought". Can
all these noteworthy people be wrong?
Our thoughts are very powerful in determining what we want
and get out of our lives. Our thoughts can be either POSITIVE or
NEGATIVE. Positive thoughts produce positive results. Negative
thoughts produce negative results. This is where self-talk comes
into play. We all know that the subconscious does not know the
difference between the truth and a lie. Therefore, to produce
positive results, we have to constantly and consistently impress
positive self-talk upon the subconscious mind.
Some examples of positive self-talk are: "I CAN";
"I WILL"; "I DESERVE"; "I AM";
"I BELIEVE". But, behind all this, there must be FAITH
and BELIEF in oneself.
All great men and women had a vision that began with a
thought, an idea. The perseverance of positive self-talk is what
makes great men and women greater, and their visions realised.
Many great people, including Thomas Edison (the inventor of the
light bulb), had a dream, a goal, a vision, and persisted in
their efforts to realise that dream. Thomas Edison, for example,
(like others before and after him), had many failures before his
acclaimed success. I say that, "Success is failure turned
inside out."
Why should we settle for negative results (which only lead to
low self-esteem), when we have the choice to think in a positive
manner, thereby creating positive results? Even with positive
self-talk, we often encounter setbacks, failures, and adversity.
But the person who wants fulfillment, has the potential to
uplift and empower himself or herself with positive self-talk.
Anthony Robbins, in his book, "Unlimited Power", drew
a model of four squares, each one with an arrow leading to the
next square. My interpretation of that model goes like this:
Starting with (1) Belief/Attitude, this leads to developing the
(2) Potential which leads to taking (3) Action, which produces
(4) Results, leading right back to square one, which is
Belief/Attitude.
At first, this is a difficult process, especially if we have
been programmed to think negatively if all we have encountered
have been failures. But, to get what we deserve, want, and
desire, we have to re-program our thinking. This requires great
self-discipline and tenacity.
Using the rain as an example, let’s just say that on a
dull, dreary, rainy day, it is so very easy for us to fall into
the trap of negativity of feeling sorry for ourselves, of
feeling gloomy. So what can we do to turn this pessimistic and
abrogating experience into a positive one? Well we can wear
bright clothing to uplift our spirits, listen to music that
motivates us and enhances our sense of enjoyment and well-being,
and we can view the rotten weather as a way of taking control of
our thoughts by BE-ing and thinking constructively and
productively. We can take that so-called "ugly" time
to clean our closets, mentally and physically and either get rid
of unwanted thoughts and clutter or we can fill the void with
newer and better material. We can visit friends, whether by
phoning them, writing them letters, or daydreaming about
spending happy, quality time with them.
If we have creative capabilities, we can write poems or short
stories, we can paint or draw, we can re-decorate, we can
challenge ourselves by putting together a puzzle, or we can read
uplifting, motivational books. We can visit bookstores or art
galleries, all the while learning and having fun. We do NOT have
to stagnate in negativity.
The more we dwell on the negative, the farther we sink into
that deep, dark, hole of despair. Again, it is our choice to
think either Positive or Negative thoughts. We are all capable
of doing great things why not start by THINKING them. We have
all heard the saying, "Think big or stay home". Why
then don’t we think positively to achieve our hearts’
desires and happiness? Every moment in time is a chance to begin
anew to re-shape our thought processes.
While we are in the process of thinking positively, our old
beliefs of negativity and failure constantly creep into the
subconscious to sabotage our good. And this is precisely where
persistence and self-discipline come into play. We have to
consciously and deliberately get our minds back on the positive
track. It’s perfectly normal and permissible to be derailed
but, if we stay derailed, we just rust away. We have to use all
our willpower to get back on track and get focused positively to
achieve successful, happy results.
Let me leave you with some food for thought:
· "It is the mind that maketh good or ill,That maketh
wretch or happy, rich or poor." - Edmund Spenser
· "You are never given a wish without also being given
the power to make it true."- Richard Bach, Author of
Jonathan Livingston Seagull
· "Attitude determines your altitude."- Zig
Ziglar, Author of See You at the Top
· "It doesn’t matter how many times you have failed.
What matters is the successful attempt."- Dr. Maxwell
Maltz, Author of The Search for Self-Respect
· "Never think that God’s delays are God’s denials.
Hold on; hold fast; hold out. Patience is genius."- Comete
de Buffon
· "A clear understanding of negative emotions dismisses
them."- Vernon Howard, Author of Esoteric Mind Power
Change your thinking and you change your reality. So, go out
and create miracles in your life with the power of positive
thinking!
