Waking up with the Sun- Gentle Thankfulness

Sunrise, Astoria, Oregon 9/7/2022 photo by Gabriella

Walking out to the patio in the gentle morning breeze Wednesday morning and watching the sun as it started to come up all I could think of is gratefulness.

I felt I needed to imagine being the sun and breathing in with the sun. Standing and watching this beautiful glow as it is gently making its way through the horizon I started to think about the Sun.

I was very grateful to be in the present moment, taking some nice deep breaths and thinking about nothing else just the Sun, the Sun’s energy, and all the benefits the Sun provides for us.

Tribute to Nature

I am grateful today.

I am thankful for the Sun.

I am thankful for the Air.

I am thankful for the Earth.

I am thankful for every living thing around me.

Take each moment as they come and do the best you can with them.

I captured my thoughts and the sunrise in the short video below.

The most amazing thing was that after these grateful moments I had to go and drive to work and on my way, the sun was still rising, and I was seeing the most amazing sunrise I had ever seen in my life.

Nature brought out her paintbrush again to amaze me.

Thank you for reading, and watching. I hope you enjoyed waking up with the sun.
