What’s your favorite time of day? – The Daily writing prompt inquires.
My first thought was early mornings. I usually wake around 4 am, sometimes earlier. That time just before sunrise and that first light of day is wonderful. So quiet and peaceful. Wildlife is still out and about. The air smells fresh.
After a quick stretch, my body probably feels the best it will all day. My mind is clear and I have some alone time for my thoughts and hobbies. It is also the only time of day I allow myself a bottle of Coke. So I savor and enjoy it.
Then I thought my favorite was anytime I spent quality time with my better half.
Friday mornings were pretty special for years when my granddaughter would run to me at the front door to spend the day with us.
About once a week I gather with my two best friends one evening and that is a favorite time of day.
On Sundays it’s dinnertime.
Sometimes favorite times of days sneak up on you. Like when your children call unexpectedly just to chat and tell us they love us.
The more I think about this though there isn’t a point in the day that I don’t love. And I’ve done extensive research on all 24 hours of the day after many many years of night shifts. There is something special about every hour of the day if you’re willing to look for it.
