"Push yourself to get up before the rest of the world - start with 7am, then 6 am, then 5:30 am. Go to the nearest hill with a big coat and a scarf and watch the sun rise."

I DID IT! I finally got myself up this morning! I have been attempting this for the past few days but I have been so exhausted I just haven't been able to pull myself out of bed. I told my friend to come with me today so it kind of forced me out of the bed! I also used her to my advantage to take pictures of me since I didn't get my new camera yet! 

As I was sitting there today looking out at the water with the beautiful sun rising behind it I couldn't help but smile. What a life I live. How blessed am I? Blessed beyond words. Not only did I get to start my morning off with a good friend and a beautiful view, but I also got to go get a delicious breakfast and coffee at our local coffee shop in little old Spring Grove!!

So thankful for this morning. I woke up. I saw the sunrise. I talked with a good friend. Sipped on some delicious coffee. Now I am off to the gym and then work later tonight.

Before I go though, I would urge ALL of you to wake yourself up before the rest of the world and reward yourself with the view of the beautiful sunrise. You won't regret it.
