Early Mornings

There is a stillness early in the mornings, especially in Spring and Summer. Those quiet moments just before dawn, when life is waking up (not the teenagers in my household though). The only times I've seen a fox have been then, and many hedgehogs and quite a few other creatures. If I'm lucky and in the garden, I will have a cup of tea with me.

I often don't think of those times until I'm in them again. The lack of human noise, just nature, the stirring of wind in the trees and the calls of birds. In Summer, you might get a humid gust of wind blow through, or in Spring a still, crisp, and crunchy ground covering. The day feels full of potential and all the things that could happen.

I try and feel in the moment, just to be there and appreciate it. I try not to think of what's come before or what will come after. Be grateful.

Then the world moves on and I forget. Until the next time. 

Hopefully you will have additional 'peace' at home from next week.
