Adaptation

I have never been a morning person. Ever. in. my. life.

I have always been a person who loves to stay up late… I love the way that at night time you can let your thoughts wander. I love how there is no timeline to what you want to do. In the morning I have always struggled with the fact that there is a deadline to these moments of the meandering mind and creative spirit.

But, somehow, I have evolved. Or adapted.

I have gotten up early for the past three weeks. I never thought I could do it this long. And I have surprised myself by liking it. I usually work out, but there is something I am beginning to love about the stillness of my house and my city in the dark. Peace and quiet before the buzz of life breaks day.

I guess this is just one of those things in life I have never tried on… but I think it fits.

(Oh and for those who are wondering, early is 5:30 am. I know it is not crazy… but for me this is unheard of.)
