For a long long time I didn't understand this. I had been waking up all alone for my entire life and couldn't imagine ever missing that feeling. But today it made sense.
I woke up in my cozy queen-sized bed, in my sun-drenched bedroom and immediately felt happy and calm and grateful all at once. No family, no boyfriend, no coworkers. No one but me. The feeling was bliss and one I acknowledged that I would someday miss.
I got up and made a cup of green tea, washed a few dishes from yesterday, and set to making breakfast as the morning sun reflected off the lofts across the street and filtered through my soft living room curtains. I sauteed onions and leeks in olive oil, added salt and pepper, then added chopped spinach. Mixed this with scrambled eggs and put on two pieces of grilled flatbread. Delish. This was my go-to breakfast all week :)
