Some mornings carry a strange sweetness, like a familiar tune heard from far away. Today felt like that—soft, unhurried, almost as if the day itself asked me to pause before stepping into it. I remembered those younger mornings when waking up was effortless, when a whole day felt like a playground and not a timetable. There was freedom in those hours, an innocence that didn’t need coffee or courage.
We grow older and forget that beginnings can still be gentle. But a morning like this taps lightly on the window of memory, reminding us that we still have room to restart, to adjust, to breathe.
Every sunrise is an invitation.
We only have to accept it.
