grace number thirty eight
today i am most grateful for almost always waking up happy

waking up happy is one of the greatest feelings in the world. or when you wake up, and you are NOT unhappy, thats a great feeling too.i wouldn't say i wake up happy every day. usually, waking up is never a FUN experience for me. as much as i am uber grateful to be awake and alive- i've never really been a fan of getting out of bed. i love to sleep. i would love to stay in bed most of the day.

what i love most are those few morning moments. those times where you lay in a mixture of sleep and awake. when you're not too rushed. when you can lie in the warmth of your bed, sunlight streams in your room but doesn't overwhelm your eyes. when you still have moments of dream in your conscious.

i live for those moments.

when i was having a really hard time last year, and i was waking up really unhappy, i knew something was wrong. that was actually one of the major signs that my unhappiness wasn't just passing funk. it was something i needed to take care of. and now, now that i am myself again, i can wake up in the morning and enjoy those experiences.

i don't take that for granted anymore.
