Good morning. 🐦🐦🐦25 June 2025For some reason, I woke up at five this morning. It’s quiet—so quiet that even my border collie, Charlie, went back to bed, I think. He’s not in here. Sunrise is still half an hour away. The days are growing shorter now; little by little, the sun lingers in sleep just a bit longer each morning. I usually wait for the ambient light to slip through the windows before I stir, but here I am, alone with my thoughts. Once again, I find myself wondering: Why am I up?I think, my dog, Ben was in my dreams last night. You know he passed a few weeks ago. He used to wake me at these impossible hours, long before the birds thought to sing. I don’t believe in the supernatural, but if I did—maybe he came to say goodbye.“The morning steals upon the night, melting the darkness.” — William Shakespeare“Sometimes, the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.” — A.A.
