Beating sunrise.
As I watched the sunrise this morning, I realized that I’d never witnessed that moment before, unless my memory has failed me. Something magical happens; As the moon starts to fade away behind the clouds, the sun starts to peak over the hills, but just before that happens, something ever more wonderful! The clouds radiate beautiful shades of orange and pink. One of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. This happens every single day. Most of us are still in our slumber, or in a half zombie state as we wake up to the antics of children and family. As a former night owl, I start to realize all the beauty I miss during the morning, and as I sit here, looking into my backyard, watching the leaves turn amber I count my blessing and appreciate this beautiful creation we call home; Earth.
