Waking up late costs a life time
Waking up early every morning used to sound obnoxious, daunting, the ‘no’ in life, since I was a child. Looking back I must say, that is where all this began. (Chuckles the guardian angel)
I am not writing about how important it is to jump off the cozy sheets before 6 am. But it links to the fact that early mornings create a longer day- more time in hand and more creativity.
I was not only late to bed-late to wake up. I was pretty much the ignorant kid. It was also a time that Google didn’t exist. I pity that 90’s generation where most kids in my locality lived in a bubble. I read books and they were adorable folk tales or adventures for teens; They didn’t prepare me for life. I had no complaints though. I managed to attract most of my simple dreams as a kid, a teen and a growing young adult. Now I know I actually had control over law of attraction. Yet, I had to pass the 30’s block to realize that to wake up meant something beyond keeping your god damn eyes open.
Today, I look back on the verge of hitting 40. I am not proud of living an innocent ignorant life, because it costed me my time, my emotions, my luck, my savings, my positivity, my strength and my hope. Walking out of a partly happy yet a ruined marriage was way daunting than waking up early. But walking away has taught me to wake up. Literally, I now wake up early enough to have an enriching start which is absolutely soul watering. Secondly, I am proud to have found my purpose in life and goals that define me. And walking alone that path has become one that is elevating.
I am a gleeful late bloomer, each day seeking to grow. There is meaning in who I am and may I say that this is something out of our bodily experiences.
Ofcourse, there are times that I feel, ‘I wish I knew it then’. No one could say what I would have done knowing it all. So I decided to stick by my so called late bloomer crown, wear it with pride, knowing that I learnt by experiencing the rock bottom. Perhaps on another day, I will write about why marriages should work out. But today I would like to say, that it is still fab even if it doesn’t. Even if it doesn’t at all cost.
Wake up early, for every day is worth living and tasting some pancake and morning ganache.
Bon Appétit!
