I like to have some quiet time when I wake in the morning. I take my morning coffee out into the garden and feel the trees and the plants that surround me. My mornings are quiet for a short period before the rush of the day.
I feel grateful that I was born. I look at my day ahead. On the Camino I had a general idea of where I would like to finish that day, which town or city, sometimes even which hostel.
I stand outside feeling the fresh morning air and consider the important things in my day ahead. I try to see if there is anything that I am avoiding. Once done I consider my own happiness. Do I spend enough time with my friends and family, do I treat my relationships well, have I been giving enough time to what I consider important?
Going back into the house I take the beauty of nature with me. I see the beauty in my family as everyone goes about their own morning routines.
thankyou for telling your morning time….it has consoled me here tonight. I’d love to walk the Camino…but am too scared to attempt it alone.
I continue to try to live trusting and believe I am growing. At 55 I still feel I have a lot of learning to do.
cheers….Eva
