Morning is simply my favorite part of the day. Especially now--when it's sunny out the second I rise.
Instead of rolling out my Yoga mat or picking up my paintbrush--I've been sitting lately by the window. Letting the sun bathe me and the birds serenade me.
Just sitting. Sipping hot water with lemon, sometimes with a little something to eat.
I want to hold onto this feeling forever. Merge it into my busy day. I want mornings to never change--always stay this way.
And then my mind will start to wander. Start to kill the moment of pure peace and serenity.
I begin to think that in an hour I must be in the car, in a few days I must have such paperwork finished and turned in, in a month I must be ready for summer break, in August I'll be starting my new part time job, then where will these mornings go. They'll begin to slip away from me.
Then I look at the clock, and notice the sun has found it's place at the top of the blue sky. I have to begin the rest of my day, and sadly I just traded this beautiful morning for a mental roller coaster ride --all the soft sunshine......I just let it pass me by.

First if all, what a beautiful, soft dreamy perfect photo!
And an equally beautiful post. I think we ALL relate! At least you are taking time to sit and soak in the morning for a moment. Have you ever thought of it that way. I think about it, and often don't even do that much! But your post has inspired me to do it right NOW!
Oh my goodness...You are STUNNING. That photo captures your beauty oh so well.
And yes - I'm sitting right behind you on that mental roller coaster. How nice it is, if only for a moment, to enjoy that sun-bathed stillness.
Beautiful.
I'm "ending" my day with your post today.... in the same fashion - but the sun is going down. Thank you for the moment and the reminder to stop for it.
i ~dare~ ya tOO! X;-)
I love peaceful mornings with the sun shining and the birds chirping. Sometimes I'll take time to sit at my kitchen table and stare out the window while I have breakfast. Other mornings are rushed. I always feel better on mornings I take that time.
Your post has me wanting to try something a bit different- spend a few minutes each morning sitting in my studio window seat. Thanks for the inspiration.
Favorite photo of you EVER.
And beautiful post, too!
