When you live outdoors with nature and wake up before dawn, there is this beautiful time when all the birds, and animals, join the transition from darkness to light. It is truly a time of tremendous change, a movement from silence to song, and from rest to activity, from night to day. What is it in the start of a new day that makes it something to embrace, to look forward to? Why does the dawn have so much more allure than the evening? To me the morning, the rising of the sun, represents a new beginning…it represents hope. Hope is the feeling that things will be better, that life will improve, that God and a reason for being does exist. Hope is our desire to return to God, to the essence of the seed that we are. Hope is our attuning to the energy that God displays all around us. Hope is facing the sun, spreading your arms, closing your eyes, and feeling the warmth and light flow thru you.
