Mornings are the time where my mind is the most free. Of course It can be hard to get out of a warm bed and into the cold outdoors. But once I'm out there, once the fog of sleep lifts, I can move through my thoughts without them feeling so heavy. Part of this, I feel, is due to the feeling of possibility that a new day brings. The excitement that if I can get my mind right, today could be the most beautiful day yet. Part of this could also be the fact that my brain is not yet awake, kind of drifting between concious and unconscious, allowing me to use my creative side more than my critical side. It's this weightless feeling that I love and why I mainly create in the mornings. From writing to editing, capturing to processing this is my time to reconnect with who I am and who I want to be. This past week has taught me many things and this morning as I woke and entered my favorite time of day, I reminded myself to be mindful and move forward. As I began editing photos from several recent photo sessions, tears fell down my face as I saw the pure joy of those I was photographing. It reminded me that although my happiness is for me to find, seeing and capturing others happiness...is pure bliss!! #emformdesign #capturehappiness #mindfulness https://www.instagram.com/p/BvuLlFnhEka/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vnuxr45scrg9
