awakening

coffee
There were days when she was very happy without knowing why. She was happy to be alive and breathing, when her whole being seemed to be one with the sunlight, the color, the odors, the luxuriant warmth of some perfect Southern day. She liked then to wander alone into strange and unfamiliar places...And she found it good to dream and to be alone and unmolested.
- from The Awakening by Kate Chopin

One of my favorite passages from my favorite book, describing perfectly how I feel this morning. You know when your coffee is the perfect temperature for sipping & a wonderful song comes on Pandora? And there is sun streaming through your open window, shedding light on your messy room? Yeah, that feeling. Today will be a good day. Best wishes!
