There's something about witnessing a sunrise that makes you cherish life. The cheerful sound of the birds waking up and taking flight; The ever-changing colors of the sky; Glimpses of the early morning moon peeking out of the numerous clouds.

There's something about witnessing a sunrise that makes you want to paint it all; The color slowly returning to the world; The stars disappearing in the momentarily blushing gray sky; The silhouettes of the resilient trees standing as if they'll never fall.

There's something about witnessing a sunrise that makes you smile all day. Light peeking out of the midnight blue clouds as the first mesmerizing ray of the sun makes its appearance; The birds flying around you in circles, chirping happily; The wind carrying away dark blue clouds to reveal grey ones that eventually turn into bright white.

There's something about witnessing a sunrise that makes you want to capture it in all its glory. The gentle wind caressing your cheeks and taking away the worries of life; The birds chirping your name, calling to each other; A baby squirrel looking in wonder at the sky.

There's something about witnessing a sunrise that makes you want to stay forever, never emerging from its serenity. The jolly swaying of the trees making them look full of life, as if rejoicing at the thought of this sure to be a beautiful day; Their rustling sounds like a melody to welcome the Sun, filling an individual with joy and peace, making them ready to face the world.

There's something about witnessing a sunrise that makes it all worth it, fills you with hopes of new beginnings and a better world; As the clouds will always move with the wind, bestowing upon us their shade and relieving us from harsh times; The trees will always stand strong and the birds will always sing in delight as there's something that will never change, that will stay in our forever.

Such magnificence occurs every single day, but alas, we're too busy with the priorities today's hectic world has set to actually witness it.

Ever woke up at 4:30 and gone to the roof just to witness the sunrise?

It's worth it. Will open your mind.

Awesome, really.

Love sitting out in the world and just writing.
