I have decided that mornings are the best because of the following reasons:
Sunrise
Funny,feel good stretches and yawns
Bedhead
Warm Showers
Prayer and Study
Breakfast
Productiveness
What gets you up and going to get you out of your cosy bed? For me its the brightest star in the Galaxy.In my room I have my walls painted dark blue,which is great for sleeping. I have this problem though sometimes when my room is so dark my bed is found calling my name. Lucas....lucas....But what wakes me up? yeah its the sunrise,thanks sun for not letting me be too lazy!
Now onto yawns and funny feel good stretches. I love how the first thing I do when I open my eyes is to find the weirdest positions to make a stretch that feels so awesome. I might look ridiculous when doing it but what are you going to do about it? Oh yeah and yawns are so refreshing and their contagious I believe so spread the yawning love.
Okay on to Bedhead.After a good nights rest its just awesome to wake up to rock star hair. I mean the first thing in the morning you see in the mirror is how awesome you styled your hair,overnight,mid-sleep!awsomeness...
Warm Showers. Aww yeah! Well here is the thing. In the bodine home if you want a warm shower you have to wake up early to get the hottest water. So the earlier you wake up the better shower temperature you get. For instance this Saturday I get the chance of the warmest shower. Hot,morning showers is like my mini sauna for the day and really wakes me up and going.
Prayer and Study. Really looking at it the best part of my day is in the morning because that's when I start my day off by praying and reading my scriptures. Also that's the best time that I attend the temple at. In the morning all the junk is out of my head and so I have that much more to apply that to my reading and spiritual breakfast. This part of the morning keeps me ticking. What a good way to start off the day knowing that you've talked to your heavenly father,read about great prophets and learning by the spirit knowing that your on the lords side and his errands.
I'll get off my pre-mission soap box now haha.Here is some good stuff,read it,it rocks
The early bird gets the worm. Well here is a little fact you might not know about me,I love to cook in the morning. Yup chief bodine right here. During the week I am so busy that a good 65-75% of the time I leave the door eating nothing but when I do eat breakfast its no less than amazing. Some things I usually cook in the morning is English muffins,blueberry bagels,suniside up eggs,french toast,waffles,omelets and a recent favorite of mine the egg McMuffin with a glass of milk and plenty of Tabasco sauce to put on.Yummm
And to top it off, productiveness. Looking closer on how I use my mornings I get most of my work done then.All of my classes are in the morning and so I learn then most then. I also get all my spiritual and school study in that I need daily. I also do random side jobs that need to get done in the mornings.
I have to admit I love sleep and it is hard to wake up but think of the things you can experience and get done without sleeping in late.
