Good Morning!

Gland - Vaud (Switzerland)

I used to love night best but the older I get the more treasures and hope and joy I find in mornings.

With the new day come new strength and new thoughts.
And if they don't come immediately, we have now all the necessary time to find them.

Learning a different use of time is another good side of self-isolation.
I don't know exactly how or why, but I never feel bored in these days (although I'm rarely bored also under normal circumstances, I must say) and I'm spending more time perusing the photos of my fellow amateur photographers on PBase.
A rewarding activity, which I had neglected in the past months, when I was too absorbed by other things.
Besides that I have also had the chance to get in touch in a rather more personal way with some Pbasers, and I have found out that they are pleasant and interesting people.
Human relationships need attention and consistency to be developed and it's always a slow and gradual procedure, which often enriches us deeply.

I have never believed in sudden friendship, without solid basis.
In my opinion it must be built up, little brick after little brick, it takes time and engagement.
When we make a sincere effort to communicate, which is not only speaking of ourselves, but is, mainly, listening to the other people, we realize that we have really gained something precious.

Such a beautiful and cheerful scene to wake up to, each new day is a gift and its quietness brings a calmness to mind, a soothing melody and lullaby...and enjoying these blessed moments of solitude....V

A wonderful morning scene with the tulips and the white picket fence.
It is great to be able to share with other PBasers, it is also sad that I have not met up with many of them, as age creeps on and the virus restrictions I wonder if travel will ever be the same.

A most beautiful bright and colourful, early morning, photo; would be a pleasure to wake up to. I too like mornings best, but being seldom bored, I enjoy the peace and stillness of evenings as well. Great to share these thoughts and images during these difficult days.

I'm a morning person too, it's my favourite part of the day. Love your Tulips against that sky

I have always loved mornings best, and I still wake up early no matter how late I go to bed. Can make for a short night like last night. But I will nap today for a bit. :) Thanks for the cheerful photo!
