I have always been a morning person. Even in high school, when most teenagers enjoyed the luxury of sleeping in, I loved the idea of getting up with the sun and grasping the new day by the reigns.
I love to experience the sunrise; all of the warm, rich colors. The silence that drapes over the earth as everything and everyone is still sleeping. The feeling of peace that you gain from experiencing a simple, yet magnificent act of God.
I love the opportunity that the day holds. What will come of the day? Who will I reconnect with? What will my creativity bring? What blessings will I experience? What new adventure will unfold?
I love to plan my day. Make a list of goals & tasks. See what can be accomplished in the next 24 hours that will benefit myself, my family, my home, my business.
I love to read with a cup of hot tea (peppermint is my favorite). Especially the latest issues of all my favorite magazine subscriptions that have arrived in the last day or two. I just love a new magazine.
I love having a few quiet moments to myself before the house wakes up. Ponder. Think. Savor where I am right now, in this moment.
I love early mornings.
