I heard somewhere that we as people need to stop thinking we are the only ones that know ourselves. Instead, we need to think along the lines that God is the only one who truly knows us. Regardless..... There are a few things I know about myself. ;)
Firstly, I love peace and quiet in the morning. I love my cup of coffee and I love listening to scripture whilst getting ready. I can’t think clearly before my cup of coffee. And yes, I know this seems like a fad these days. However, I have always disliked mornings. (I used to have these Muppet's pajamas that said, "I hate mornings." Baha I wore them for ages) But It was right around my first semester at college when I truly started embracing coffee; dark and with only cream. Now I adore my cup of bliss. I wake up, stumble into the kitchen, (hoping no one talks to me) and pour myself a lushus bit.
It is also very important how you wake me up. My sister Ellen used to awaken me with an extremely loud voice until she finally got the memo. (I always think of that one bible verse, “He who blesses his friend with a loud voice early in the morning, It will be reckoned a curse to him.” ) Now, to this day she wakes me up sweetly.
I think this need of mine stirs from childhood. Belle and I shared a room and mom would come in and very loudly say, "IT'S MORNING TIMEEEE!!!!" AND THEN she would throw open the blinds... Seriously though, it is the worst thing to have light thrown in your face after a long slumber. Am I right? ;)
Lastly, I CANT eat right after I wake up. Otherwise I feel totes icky…My brother is the same way. By the time I do actually eat it can only be certain food. (I know. weird) Truthfully, breakfast food is so much better at night anyway….
