For some reason, I turned on the Ocean City beach cam for sunrise this morning and it was a nice one that kind of inspired me. I watched a few people walking on the beach. The calm morning still had a small ripple of waves hitting the shore. And even though I could not hear them, I could because my mind loves that sound.

I find the coming day giving me hope again. Not that I don’t have concern, as a partner of that, it’s just that it has balance again. Hope and concern are bedfellows that should be together. For we can always make things better. And I feel that hope has been added to the equation again.

I’m also asking myself some very important questions more often now. It helps me prioritize my day better. And to that end, I’m feeling better because I’m doing more that I feel good about.

I hear Karma is the pilot on a flight out of Andrews tomorrow morning.
