I Wonder How Most People Begin Their Day?
Is It....?
A quick pick me up
With that morning Joe
The morning news that once was the morning newspaper
A quickie or just a beautiful morning hug
For me it is my latest, greatest idea
My mother use to start with a load of laundry
My wife starts right away making her lunch for later
We all have a routine
If it is a morning pee or brushing your teeth
For others it might be a bad habit
An early morning cigarette or even a stiff drink
I hope I can pull you away from those undesirable circumstances
To something better, healthier and more productive
Chances are you have had the same habit for years
So it is not easy to change
It can be done
Not just all at once
Over time and so slow that you don't even know
Let's think of all the good things we can do
Maybe you have to let the dog out for a walk
Then you both are getting some needed exercise
That is better than a donut and a large coffee at Duncan Donuts
We all have to make a decision
This is the start of your day
If we make a good choice
It could set an example
For the rest of the day to follow
If we start of cursing and complaining
Unfortunately, we just crawled down that rabbit hole
Once a routine is set
It is so easy to follow it
No thinking involved
Less brain power
Less effort
Our bodies are on autopilot
Doing what they do best
Functioning after a long sleep
I for one
Never want to wake up
I love sleep so much
My average sleep per night
Is five or six hours if I am lucky
It is not unusual for me to be a little cranky
I try to snap myself out of it
Now I complain less and less
I like to start off my day
With a morning hug and a kiss
I have to put food down for our cat Charlotte
Then open the kitchen sliding door
She loves to watch the birds at the bird feeder
More often than not
Then I go for a morning bowl of cereal
Take my multi-vitamin for the day
With a half a glass of juice
I turn on the laptop
Start right in with any thoughts that cross my mind
I see where it will go
It might be on a whimsical note
I try to remember my dreams
A new day is here in the making
It is up to us to find a way
To make it better than the day before
No pressure
Lovelier than love can be
Try to create a fun mood
That will get you in the groove
It will create the domino effect
The morning radio turns on so many lives
I am more the peace and quiet
Kind of guy
Later I love music
Only after I have already got the ball rolling
Well, no matter what you choose
I would love to hear about it
If you are willing and daring enough to share
