The Rewards of Waking Early
Sitting down at my desk early this morning while the world was still dark and quiet, a gorgeous sunrise just outside my window.
Ribbons of purple, pink, blue and red filled the sky between the east foothills on the far horizon and the enormous plum tree blooming right outside my window.
Most of the year this tree is a bit of an eyesore, but for a few short weeks in the spring she shines. The plum tree's bloom, like this morning's sunrise, is here for a moment, then gone.
One small moment that reminds me: change is a constant, pay attention. ❤
