Chasing the sunrise

I had one of those perfect mornings today.   One where you wake up early and you feel strong, so you quickly pull on your sneakers and head outside ready to run.  You swing open the door and you are greeted by a warm and inviting breeze that just makes you smile even more.  You start jogging (or walking), exploring the scenery and figuring a way to be more or less connected with your surroundings.  With each passing step the run gets better and better, and then, as if on queue, the sun rises majestically, washing over you with a warm glow, a feeling of connectedness and “privilege” – privilege to be able to be outside enjoying all that mother nature has created for us.  The run seems to go forever but, alas, before you know it, you will be back where you started.  Wishing it was not over, you reflect on the beauty of the morning and you decide that you will seek out these moments as often as you can.  Chasing the sunrise seems to be the right thing on our THPL journey.  The opportunity is there…..we might as well chase the sunrise and see how many times we can make that connection happen.  Everyday does not even feel like it is too often…..

Loving life, chasing the sunrise
