How can the feeling of an early morning trip be described? The start to an adventure of peril or wonderful safe travels.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.Chinese philosopher Lao-tzu
The first step is usually turning off the alarm clock and getting your feet out from under the covers. By the time the morning shower is over (assuming you had time and didn’t hit the snooze button) the you are on to the second step.
After the bags are zipped closed, loaded in the car, and the car begins to move the third step has been completed. From here, a thousand miles await.
The world’s morning stillness, glazed in a the soft orange glow of the rising sun, presents itself for your viewing pleasure as you drive along. Perhaps it is accompanied by the wafting smell of the hot coffee entrusted to the cup holder for safe keeping. Maybe you are fortunate enough to be the passenger on this trip and have closed your eyes, oblivious to the beauty outside. The sound of the car engine sooths your senses as your mind dreams of the road ahead.
I hope you appreciate the feeling of morning trips and first steps.
