A Walk on a Foggy Morning

“I see a lot of fog and a few lights. I like it when life’s hidden. It gives you a chance to imagine nice things, nicer than they are.” — Ben Hecht

One of the many joys of having dogs is waking up and taking them out first thing in the morning. This day we enjoyed a quiet walk in the fog and misty rain. I’ve always enjoyed this weather. It adds a sense of calm and serenity to our surroundings. Noise disappears in the mist, and as we walk along, it even silences the crunch of dry leaves beneath our feet.

I just didn’t see the point. But in the past year I decided I needed to shake some things up in my life. My day was just too static and monotonous.

For the past 6 months of so I have been refining my morning routine. By that, I really mean I have committed to actually HAVING one. So after six months how do I think the process is going?
