The Start of a New Day

It's a bit nippy out there this morning.... There has been a sharp frost and the street is twinkling as if covered in a million diamonds. The sun is desperately trying to rise and the air is cold and clear.

Early morning is a beautiful part of the day, not that I see it very often as early as I did this morning, but hey, it was lovely to be up and about in the silence before the world fully woke up and the noise of the day began with all the hustle and bustle of every day life.

The cycle of day and night is a wondrous thing and is full of beauty... the first signs of dawn and the rising of the sun, lights up the sky like nothing else; it wakes us up and prepares us for the day ahead, whilst the setting of the sun casts a spectacular ray of colours and as the moon and stars present themselves, our body prepares itself for much needed rest and recuperation.

Both early morning and dusk is a great time to reflect on both the coming of a new day and indeed all that the day has offered... the people we have interacted with as we have gone about our daily lives, the places we have visited  and all that has been achieved. The rising of the sun always brings an inner feeling of joy, for we are not promised the coming day and it is therefore a gift. It gives each and every one of us a chance to start anew, to be a better person and in our own small way offer what we have to the world and indeed others.

I hope that all who reads this entry, has a lovely day full of happiness and joy.
