This Morning Feels Unclaimed

This morning feels unclaimed.
As if no one has decided yet what it should become.
I like that feeling — when the day hasn’t been pushed into shape. Earlier, mornings felt like blank pages we were allowed to stain freely. Now we try to write perfect sentences before the ink dries.
There was a time when waking up didn’t come with self-assessment. We didn’t measure energy levels or emotional readiness. We simply stood up and joined the day.
If this morning seems quieter than usual, let it stay that way. You don’t need to announce plans or intentions. Some days work better when they begin without ambition.
Let the day find you slowly.
Not everything needs a strong start.
