Spring.
I'm going to wake up early in the morning, and pull on my
favorite sweatpants. The sun will just be peaking over the
horizon, flooding the sky will deep reds and purples. I'm going
to tie on a pair of tennis-shoes, ones that hug my feet perfectly
and are worn down from use. Then, I'm going to step outside into
the fresh, crisp air, take a deep breath, and run. Run until my
feet feel like they're floating under me, until my ponytail
dances behind me, until my lungs sing with cold oxygen.
When I get home, glistening with steaming beads of sweat, I'll
step into a cold shower. Letting the water crawl down my body and
empty my mind. When I finally get out, I'll bundle up in a fluffy
towel and slather myself in my favorite smelling lotion. Feeling
clean and soft and new. I'll pull on my outfit for the day,
smiling at myself in the mirror, proud.
I'll go downstairs, just as the rest of my family starts stirring
and waking up. I'll plop a pad of butter into a sizzling pan, and
whisk up some eggs. Adding cheese and salt and pepper until the
room floods with the smell of breakfast.
This is how I am going to start my day, perfect. ♥
