Monday Morning

The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.

John Muir

What is the good of your stars and trees, your sunrise and the wind, if they do not enter into our daily lives?

E. M. Forster


T has a conference to attend today and got up before sunrise. She woke me when the rising sun began painting the trees and sky red. It wasn't at all hard to jump out of bed this Monday morning.

Before 6:30 in the morning
