Sacred Mornings

Words & Photography
by Stef Etow





"I'm not a morning person." It's something I used to say. A lot. The moon was who I'd wait up for. That creative light bulb guiding me to clarity after everyone else was sleeping.

Morning may not be my peak time for productivity, but it is my time to be intentional about the day.

It took all these years to realize how limiting that label is. Morning may not be my peak time for productivity, but it is my time to be intentional about the day. So mornings are sacred to me now. No meetings scheduled, no email distractions. Just a moment of peace while I drink my coffee, read a book or paint.
