1. Keep the conversation light.
Right now websites like Reddit.com are compiling lists of good things. Give
yourself and everyone else a break from politics. Need a fun distraction?
Google “babies laughing” and share the delight by showing the videos
to others.
2. Eating light.
You are in control of what goes into your body. You don’t have to explain or
justify eating or not eating something. A warm, “No thank you” should
suffice. If it doesn’t,
it’s not about you.
3. Light up someone’s day.
A compliment is sure to brighten even the surliest person’s day.
4. Take in the
light.
If it’s sunny, go outside. Take a
walk by yourself to clear your head, or invite friends or family.
5. Be the light.
Sing in the shower, dance to your favorite music in the living room. Be as goofy and silly as you need to be to get to a joyful place.
