Some mornings arrive without instructions.
No urgency. No list. Just a quiet question inside you asking, “What if today is lighter?”
When I was younger, mornings meant nothing. I woke up, stepped out, lived. No forecasts, no reminders, no self-help quotes telling me how to feel. Somewhere along the way, we began over-preparing for days that simply wanted to be lived.
This morning feels like that old version again.
Unstructured. Honest. Unafraid of wasting time.
If you’re reading this with tea cooling beside you, let it cool. If the sun is late where you are, let it come when it wants. Some days don’t need ambition — they need permission.
Today doesn’t demand brilliance.
It only asks you to be present.
And that is already enough.
