I woke up today without a plan to become better.
No checklist. No inner lecture. Just the sound of water heating and a sky that hadn’t decided its colour yet.
When we were young, mornings didn’t carry weight.
We got up because the day called us, not because life pushed us.
Now mornings come with expectations.
But today, I refused them politely.
I sat still. I remembered nothing important.
And for a few minutes, that felt enough.
If your morning feels slow, don’t rush it.
If it feels empty, don’t decorate it.
Some mornings don’t want motivation.
They just want you to show up quietly.
