Today I didn’t wake up to morning — morning arrived to me.
Somewhere beyond my window, a man was whistling a soft tune as he swept the street. It came floating in like a gentle visitor, not asking for permission, only reminding me the world is already in motion. The melody had no lyrics, but somehow it carried a meaning: “Start slowly, but start.”
The sky wasn’t dramatic, the room wasn’t bright, yet there was a quiet clarity in the air — the kind that feels like fresh pages of a new notebook. Not urging. Just waiting.
And maybe that’s all a day needs from us — not brilliance, not speed, just a small willingness to lean forward.
A single step, taken without hurry, is still a beginning.
