The Magic of 5am

Writing while the world still sleeps.

Hello my friend.

A very warm welcome to A Simple Living Journal. I’m Debbie and today I want to share with you the magical time of 5am while the world still sleeps. It’s my favourite time of day to write.

An Autumn morning.

Darkness, lit only by the moon.

Silence, as the world still sleeps.

The magical sense of being alone.

Just the comfort of a ticking clock.

And the warmth of a dancing candle.

Reminding me.

There is light.

I am not alone, not really.

A pen, a piece of paper.

The words spill onto the page.

Like a cascading waterfall over the moonlit rocks.

Very soon.

My world will awaken.

There will be light.

There will be sound.

But for now.

Let the magic of 5am stay for a while longer.
