It’s been a bit tough lately and there’s a lot of chaotic energy in the air. The election happened. The inauguration of the new president and changes in the government.  There is fear, challenges in diversity, inclusion and equality.  There is unrest and people are on edge.

Not to mention it’s winter time in New England, even though it hasn’t been a bad winter in regards to snow and really cold temperatures.

I think many are ready for a shift to happen. A shift for better, happier, calmer times and warmer weather is always a plus. Until that happens, what can you do to make a shift? Sometimes, it just takes something small to shift your mood or energy and those are the things we should look for to make things brighter for a moment.  It may be a picture of your favorite place, meeting a friend for lunch, or just receiving stellar service when you order a coffee. I received this latte and had to take a picture as the small heart on the top made me smile.  Sometimes, it is the little things that make all the difference.
