This morning, after dropping my daughter off at the bus stop, I stopped in the middle of the road — completely mesmerized by the sky.
It was still dark, but the horizon was glowing with that soft, magical light that hints a new day is coming.
I couldn’t look away.
At first, my mind kicked in — You should get going. There’s work to do. This is a waste of time.
But something deeper whispered, stay.
So I did.
The last time I remember watching the sunrise like that was back in 2017, when Nic and I were travelling around the world.
Realizing that I’d been “too busy” for something so simple made me a little sad.
So I surrendered. I stayed.
For an hour, I watched the sky shift through every colour of the rainbow.
It was breathtaking — and it nourished something in me I didn’t even realize was hungry.
When I finally walked through the door, beaming, Nic looked at me and asked,
“What’s with you?”
I smiled and said,
“I watched the sunrise… and it was glorious.”
I’m still glowing.
Still radiant.
Still grateful to be alive in this beautiful, crazy world. 🌅✨
