What I love about getting up early in the morning: I'm ready for the day, I get a bunch done (such as sending out two transcripts and figuring out that crazy maze called registration), I get my fix of coffee
What I find not so great about the morning: less sleep, my mind races from one thing to the next as far as what I need to get completed for the morning (alright, so that might be a side effect of the coffee...), I'm a little more loopy than usual
I was glad, however, that 6:15 didn't come too rough this time around. It's been a while since I've experienced that hour of the day. Why 6:15? Occupy Rockhurst is now underway. There's a group getting ready to set hearts on fire for Jesus on campus. Pray for us as we continue to discern how to continue to evangelize here!
The Christopher West event was great! Saw some familiar faces, got to pray for those attending during Adoration, and I think one of the best parts was the band. Mike Mangione and the Union is a rock/indie band that bases their lyrics in Theology of the Body. Completely touching. Here's a sample: Woman in Gown
Alright, time for some piano!!
I love the early morning soooo much. Fave time of day hands-down. Appreciate it even more when I'm the only one up. I mean, I love my family. But the PEACE and QUIET is the perfect way to start my day. Prayer, coffee, check emails, prep for day. In an ideal world every day would start that way.
