So I have alluded to my usual routine in the AM before, but a quick refresher.
Usually up at 6 AM, coffee, walk dog, quick workout and yoga, prepare for the day, breakfast, then work.
One of the best parts of my mornings (besides the amazing Rwandan coffee!!!) is walking Magnus. He is a spirited one, and calming him down can be a challenge. But once we start, it is calm and peaceful. There is one point on the walk where you can see part of the valley below, the houses in front of me, and sky. I stop here, and just take it all in for a minute. I get a lot of stares (like, what is the mzungu looking at?) But, it really helps put things in perspective. When I can find out a way to post a smaller picture size here, I will show you what I mean.
It reminds me that in our rat race to get going every AM, take the time out to just stop and look around for a bit, and you just might find that you will feel more calm, and ready to start the day.
Please pray for my friends Luther and Lisa Ward who are living in Haiti right now. Hurricane Matthew should dump down rain, but they should be OK.
Love life, Find meaning, and Be happy,
Craiger
