Rise Up. Why I wake early. Watch how I start my day…

by Jon Katz
Rise Up

Rise up. Every day is a choice. A decision.

Why do I wake up early? When the sun comes up?

The sun is …

“The best preacher that ever was,

dear star, that just happens

to be where you are in the universe

to keep us from ever-darkness,

to ease us with warm touching,

to hold us in the great hands of light –

good morning, good morning, good morning.

What, now how I start the day

in happiness, in kindness…”

Mary Oliver, “Why I Wake Early.”
