“Marcus Aurelius wrote, “When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.” Of course, not everyone has the power and privilege of waking up as the Emperor of Rome, but the philosopher king still had a point. What we first think and feel as we awaken from our slumbers can influence us for the rest of the day (Brown & Wong, 2017). “
Wake up. It’s a wonderful world. It’s a wonderful life. Sure we all have our ups and downs. Sure there is chaos throughout the world. Don’t let the clouds obscure the sun that is shining above them. Be the sunshine and light that brightens the day for all those near you today.
