Darlene, this is excellent! I used to do this, too, when I was raising kids, especially during my years as a single parent. If I wanted time to myself for meditation, yoga, spiritual practice etc. I had to get up at 5 so I was ready to get my kids up at 7, and get to work etc.

Thank you so much for sharing your insights on this important topic. People often think getting up early is a fate worse than death, but if they would only try it for a while and see how valuable it is, they would soon change their minds!

Thank you for choosing HHH for this beautiful piece, and for responding to my recent invitation to write about "time"! I appreciate you, Darlene. 💜
