peanut wonderings: clarity?

With the weather warming up, I am getting back in the habit of taking my early morning walks/jogs. There is just something about feeling the crisp air on my sleepy skin and watching the sun peak its bright head over the rooftops that gives me clarity. I walk/jog alone so I take the sacred thirty minutes to think about things weighing heavily on my mind. It is amazing the amount of peace I receive as I ponder each thought while admiring the stirring nature.

Unlike Provo, there are not a lot of walkers here. I find myself utterly alone every morning passing only empty cars and dimly lit houses. Kids are hardly awake for school before I reach my street corner. The stillness of the morning moves and motivates me. I feel alive and ready for the day when I walk through my front door. My mind is clear and my focus is sure as I start our daily routine.


Where do you find clarity? I will admit that the other time I find clarity is when I am cleaning. I get lost in scrubbing floors, toilets and sinks and thoughts flow freely. It's weird...I know but it's true.
