The calm before the world wakes

The morning begins in stillness. I sit by the window, sipping my coffee, and watch as the first light breaks through the sky. It’s quiet, but not in a way that feels empty.

There’s no rush, no demands to be met right away. The peace of the morning feels like a pause, a brief moment where time slows down just enough for me to notice the small things: the warmth of the cup in my hands, the way the light touches the trees, the cool air that still holds the night’s chill.

Start before you’re ready

You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin. Waiting to feel fully ready will keep you waiting forever.

Most people who make progress begin before they feel completely prepared.

Start now, even if you feel unsure. Take small steps, even if they aren’t perfect. You’ll learn as you go. You’ll grow as you try.

Those we called the little ones

Those we once called the little ones have grown now. Despite the fact that they have become teenagers or adults even, in our eyes, they are still children. It’s strange, isn’t it? Those of us with younger siblings and cousins of our own know this feeling all too well.

Is it because we watched their first steps? Heard their first words? Or is it because their growth happened too gradually for us to notice until one day, they were taller, wiser, different - but still, somehow, the same?
