(From June or July 2009)
After a sleepless night, I was pleased to see the dawn. Usually I find it depressing to see the light of day before sleeping; today however, it was uplifting. The sky changed very quickly and the clouds moved swiftly, like incandescent waves on a cobalt blue sea. The sun glimmered diffidently between the hours of three and four and was replaced at five with billowing clouds of grey and white.

I find dawn to be the most beautiful part of the day. The silence and stillness provides the perfect setting for a flood of emotions (good or bad), memories and inspiration. It feels as though you are the only person alive, yet at the same time it is anything but lonely. There is no noise of technology and other sleepy peoples who have yet to be awakened. In a couple of hours, billions will have joined in the fight to claim the world as their own, but for now, you have a head start.
Save for the birds, the world is yours.
