Do you know what today is??
Jan 6th.
Do you remember where you were, what you saw, how you felt?
You should also remember that there are some who want you to believe it was done in the spirit of "freedom."
It wasn't.

Sometimes, we unknowingly limit ourselves, staying within barriers that no longer serve us. This image a powerful metaphor 4 how we can feel ‘stuck’ despite having the freedom to move forward. Step back, reassess, and realize that the gate is open, and the path to growth is ours to take

I've been trying to get in the "holiday spirit." I took myself into Manhattan to look at the lights. Honestly, most are boring, but this 'star' is new. It changes colors & that never happened before.
