February 6

It was another rainy (and currently extremely windy) day 'round these parts, but the mood inside the Mother Ship was sunnier than usual this morning.

When I went in, the baristas I encountered --who I know fairly well at this point-- were unusually jovial. They were just little comments and smiles and an accidentally opened apple croissant that came my way for free, but the whole experience really lifted my mood.

It was a great reminder that being kind is effective and free, and can completely change someone else's --and your own!-- day for the better. So go be a blessing!
