Diurnal Signs

Just got back from a morning walk around the neighborhood. Funny that I would usually avoid morning walks and only go for nights only but somehow things got a little different lately.

I have been nocturnal most of my life and enjoying the serenity of the quiet night. I have mentioned before how I come alive in the stillness of the night and my mind kicks into high gear. But I have been experiencing something different in the sense that even in the gentle peace of the night, I somehow look forward to the sunlight. I would often desire for myself to get tired early so that I can retire to bed earlier and look forward to the next morning.

Just as a simple reminder that I would want to try get morning walks for vitamin D sake but since doing this for a while now, I am beginning to enjoy the life-giving light of day, that somehow signifying new opportunities and a fresh start.

Another significant change is that the older I get, the more I find myself wanting to be more active. I have never been athletic, even with the occasional badminton years I had in school, that was as much as I would go. But even then, I would tire easily and feel utterly drained faster than any one of my friends. Be it a dietary issue or my weak cardio, but I have never accredited any strength to my physical abilities. I think its the reason that I am so drawn to hobbies that utilizes more of my mind than anything else.

Regardless of the reason of change, I am glad that I am seeing some sort of change for the better even in such slow increment. Thinking it through, I also believe that I am putting inspiration into practice as I wrote about it in an earlier post. Landing on to a proper and right inspiration can launch me onward more effectively than anything else.

I am glad for the mornings, I am looking forward to new beginnings, not because I want to get rid of my old, but rather to find renewal that God speaks so much about; a renewal that comes even on a daily basis.
