I’m back at work full time again, which is an adjustment (again) but I’ve been trying to get back in the groove, and figure out everything that’s changed. One thing I noticed that’s changed, is the mural in Dewey Square. This may be one of my favorites! It’s so realistic in person and kind of surreal that it’s so large on the side of a building.
Slowing Down
It's so easy to get caught up in routines and responsibilities. Head down, moving along until the next appointment or time you need to be doing something. I forget, sometimes, to stop and look around. To breathe and enjoy the fact that it's no longer winter. To sit and be happy with nothing to do. To get outside at lunch, instead of sitting at my desk because it's what I did yesterday.

Adding a Little Beauty to This World
Let's focus on something good in the world right now, like art - sound good?
One of my favorite things about working where I do, is the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway. It's a long, winding park that replaced I-93 once the big dig was completed. It runs from the North End to Chinatown, and there's always something new to see or do. Farmers markets, food trucks, water fountains, art installations... it really is a fun part of the city.
