A Good Morning

Golden light spills over the vicinities like a warm embrace, filling each corner of my home with a gentle glow. My morning begins with the aroma of coffee, swirling in the air, a quiet warmth shared in the presence of love and family. Birdsong drifts in from the open window, where the view stretches to a peaceful pond overlooking my balcony. There, the water sparkles with sunlight, mirroring the joy that overflows within these walls—a simple moment, yet everything the heart could ask for.
This is what a good morning would look like for me. On some days, I feel this and other days are not so blissful…kinda on the gloomier side. But, c'est la vie.
What makes you happy in the morning?
How was your day today?

Yeah. When I feel happy, I write happy things and vice versa

What makes me happy getting in the morning is seeing the light outside of my bedroom windows and hearing autos coming by on the road nearby.

I like watching the sunlight appear on the carpet in the living room. It means the day is beginning. Have a good weekend.

Yes sunlight actually brightens up the mood there's a scientific reason behind that

If I could wake up to a day of what you described, I would call that as a perfect start. I do have them very rarely these days. I do those times while I was studying. Most of the times, these days I wake up only to think of the number of activities to be done and planning involved. And end of day , I would look at myself and encourage me to do better .Earlier I used to look at news and there was a time when there was more positive news and negative news was less glorified. Now , it is different , hence I do not start my day looking at the news at first. There are rare days when I wake up to a nightmare or from a phone call which may not be positive .Those do not help me with starts. These days , I have stopped too much on things and to an extent it has helped me find peace.Have a wonderful weekend!
