When I’m on the Early shift. . . .
I get up at 04.00am
Shower, Breakfast, sort the dogs
Make sandwiches and orft to work at 05.00am.
This week as I’ve driven the 25 miles to work the sun has just been rising over the horizon
The tiny molten spark peeking over the hills in the distance.
Lighting up the clouds going from purple to red to golden yellow as the sun rises.
The mist floating like silver white wraiths over the fields.
The sun now fully above the hills flickering through the trees as I drive
Creating golden shafts of light through the mist.
I realise that I have a huge grin on my face revelling in this glorious force of nature.
That I’m privileged to see this incredible vision each morning.
But. . . . .
A tiny voice at the back of my mind says. . . .
“But you’d rather be in bed fast asleep though, wouldn’t you ???â€
Is this so wrong ???
