Early morning. 
Dark and quiet, except for the lonely yips and howls of the coyotes in the field across the road.
Snow flurries visible through the glimmer of the porch light.
The world is just now shaking off the slumber of another night.
I’m in a contemplative mood at this early morning hour.
The year, 2013, is winding down and I am left wondering where the time went.
The older I get, the more quickly the sand seems to fall through the hour glass.
Remembering what is truly important… Making the moments matter…Realizing that the time is now.

There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens… Ecclesiastes 3:1 NIV
