A Gentle Reminder this Morning

I was reminded of an important lesson today, especially during a week I have probably been in my head a little too much.

I woke up extra early today and within minutes of being awake felt an urgent need to go outside and find the closest spot to watch the sunrise. It is truly amazing the magic and power that listening to those promptings has for me. As I stood and watched the sunrise over the mountains and the warm golden light touching all that surrounded me I was gently reminded of a lesson. The lesson that all I am stressed or worried about means little. That sweet lesson again that both God and sweet Emberly taught me, that we aren't guaranteed the next morning or even the next 10 minutes of our day, embrace the light and the warmth in our life. Breathe deeply in the air and seize the day.

“When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love—then make that day count!”
