“Ugh. Well, that was SOOO disappointing,” I said to my friend, Maggie.
I had been looking forward to going to a certain restaurant for three days.
Previously, the restaurant had closed its doors in my hometown.
Then, I found it had reopened in a new city, twenty miles away.
We walked in. The glorious original restaurant’s energy was gone.
The waitperson was disinterested.
The restaurant was dark and stagnant, where it had once been light and energetic.
Here are three insights.
1. Avoid making it worse.
I could have reacted by raising my voice and berating the disinterested waitperson.
But that would have made things worse. I realized that you cannot teach something when someone does not care.
Raising my voice would have only made me feel bad. Likely the disinterested waitperson would have thought, “Just another jerk.”
I have learned to devote my energy to situations that can be improved.
2. Learn the lesson.
Yes. Learn the lesson. I’ll never return to that restaurant. Life is too short for avoidable bad memories.
I have learned that finding the lesson in tough situations is important. It saves time. It also protects your personal energy. We, witches, need our energy for ritual and spellwork.
3. Ask Goddess to alert you to your vulnerabilities and solutions.
I was so looking forward to having a dark chocolate-dipped macaroon (not to be confused with macaron) in that restaurant. They used to have these giant macaroons. Delicious.
Not anymore. That chapter is closed.
Still, I realized that I was vulnerable. I had just been enduring some real disruption in my life. My husband’s parents are going through rough times at a nursing home. It is so sad and painful—while I try to help his parents—as he tries to help, too.
So, I put all my hopes on having a good time at a restaurant.
How are you vulnerable? Perhaps, you can meditate and call on the Goddess to give you insights.
I realized that I could have more support in my life. For example, I have a lot of fun gathering with my friends for a role-playing game.
My solution is to have multiple supports.
How will you add more supports into your life?
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,

We experienced something similar when a local joint we frequented often got bought out by (small) chain. The menu changed. They kept the bar and the bartenders (a good thing because we got to know some of them very well). The food is similar and they added signature cocktails which are wonderful, but the energy is just not the same. Have no idea why that is. It is what it is, though.

I am happy to hear that some things stayed the same. And I am with you about “the energy is just not the same.”
I realize that something can be “different and good” at the same time. I just watch out for things that are different and mediocre.
I appreciate all your comments.
Blessed be,
Moonwater
