The morning has broken.

Sitting in my living room, I felt a sense of peace and relaxation following  a good sleep last night. Of course, it is just another day and the show must go on. Will be off to work soon. i remembered a song, "The morning has broken " sang by Cat Steven and it just means dawn has come. The moment which the day has began, turning darkness into day light. At that turning point, it is the start of a day.

Why is it so important ? So, many days have passed unnotice. Just let it pass as if nothing happens.  Yes, of course, there is nothing we can do but that moment is the awakening of our sense to the real world. The awakening of our consciousness and all of senses will come alive.

The beginning of a day will normal influence our condition of our body and mind. A bad day before or a rough night will set the tone from the beginning of our awakening. If we do not manage it , our mind will run wild and determine our mood, emotions and happiness. If we take care and time to wind the experiences of the past day and night, we will be able to live a much meaningful and enjoyable life. Our consciousness and awareness to this reality will give us the wisdom to judge and decide what is good for us going into the day.

Naturally, we would like to keep the peace and tranquility of the morning through out our day and to avoid the conditions which will affect our happiness. A simple meditation exercise to calm the mind and condition our body will be a good step forward in the day. Many thoughts will start to flow into our mind when the moment, we regain our consciousness to the day. Just watch it , acknowledge and do nothing about it and let it go. If you are in constant practice, it Will become natural and this will have a calming effect on mind and body. Just like I have mention in the previous article " Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder", by just sitting by the sea side and looking out in the vast horizon is a form of meditation. The eyes could be looking at the distance but our internal mind will be acknowledging the thoughts and memories going through our mind.  It will be a difficult task to handle the thoughts because our mind tends to take actions to fix the thoughts but after sometime, you will be able to handle your awareness and things will start to slow down and you will get a sense of joy and contentment by controlling your mind.

Have to go off to work now. I will definitely have  a nice day as the days is getting lesser in my life.

Namaste.
