Slow to Rise, Still Gonna Shine

Perhaps it is the New Moon energy or perhaps it was a less than restful night from being pregnant but either way I was slow to get out of bed this morning. The dark bedroom, even if not asleep, made a nice little cocoon of peace. But finally I felt the call to get up... not from my own energy or from the sun but from my bladder. Either way, I'll listen.

Now that I am up moving around and the sun is peeking through the window I am feeling much more energize. Today is my day. It is up to me what kind of day I will make it. And today, I choose to shine. I choose to smile and laugh and play. I choose to do my job to my best ability and I choose to reward myself with a lunch date with my mom. 

I'm grateful for days that allow a slow rise. I'm grateful for my dark room and to have my husband in the same frame of mind. I'm grateful to wake slow even if it does bring a little more hustle to the rest the morning. I'm grateful for a hot shower and for the sunlight peeking through the window. I'm grateful for the birds singing their good morning tune. I'm grateful to feel my personal power of choice for how I will create this day.

How will you create your day? How can you shine today?

May today bless us with creative ideas to spread joy. May we enjoy the beauty of each moment. Have a beautiful day!
