There is something holy about sunrise. Not loud or boastful—just light returning. One ray at a time. One breath at a time. Sunrise is a promise that no matter the depth of night, light always returns.

To witness a sunrise is to remember that beginning doesn’t have to be explosive. It can be quiet. Gradual. Intentional. The sun doesn’t rush into the sky—it climbs, slowly stretching its light across the land, gently reawakening the world. To meditate on the sunrise is to align with this rhythm of natural renewal, to start from stillness, and to allow light to rise within.
