The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. Anne Frank

Morning Musing
I’ve always thought of myself as a morning person. Once I’m up, I’m up. The latest I’ve slept in the last year is probably 8:30 am! Yet I’ve had a revelation. Whilst I’m up very early, nobody else is – I’m usually alone with my thoughts, the remote or a book/bible/computer and a cup of coffee. So, I think I still qualify as a morning person, but one who likes to be alone and left alone until about 10 a.m. This revelation came to me when I was sooooo wishing for a door that I could close to my office the other morning. From 7 am-8 am, it is LOVELY – only 3 of us in the office, respecting each other’s quietness! Then everyone start coming in, and for the most part, going onto their office to not really come alive until well after 9:30. BUT, then there is that one fellow employee, who at 8:00 am, is ready to talk to someone, has her boogie shoes on, unloads a ton of questions about what has and hasn’t gotten done. This is when I totally understand going postal!!! And quite frankly, I get a little testy with her. Come on, I leave you alone in the afternoons, give me my mornings!!! Any-ole-who, I guess this is just an opportunity for growth. At least she is only annoying in the a.m. I have another fellow employee that is annoying from 8-5! I’ve just gotten really good at ignoring that one! Oh my, I sound horrible, but hey, at least I’m honest! :-/
