There is a pleasure
in waking before sunrise
when the world is still and quiet
with only the white noise of the distant freeway
in the background
It is a time to view this blank slate
the sense of energy in my body buoys me
It is not yet a day of happiness or sadness
tethered not to moods or expectations
To accept that there is pain in life
that there is loss in life
that as we travel this path from birth to death
we have the ability to experience
both joy and pain
and to be open
to where the currents take me today
knowing
it is all part of life.
