Sunrise, Waves, and Gratitude: A Fresh Start to April ☘💚

Guess who's here? Yeah, it’s Jess! It’s been a while, guys. I’ve been quite busy with our midterm exams, projects, and other responsibilities at home and in church activities.

Looking back, we’ve really seen how fast time flies. And now, here we are, welcoming the first day of April—the start of summer and vacation for elementary and high school students… except for us college students! Haha, our vacation won’t start until May.

I took this photo around 6 AM—such a fresh start to the first day of April!

As part of the trend, instead of just posting a simple "Hello, April!" on Facebook, why not turn this beautiful experience into writing? It’s a much better way to welcome the new month—practicing and improving our writing skills while also gaining rewards. Writing helps us express our thoughts more clearly, sharpen our creativity, and develop a deeper appreciation for the moments we experience. And more than that, we can inspire others through our words too!

I woke up late and almost missed the sunrise—haha! But I managed to catch it at the last minute.

Just take a look—just as I cherish the moments while I’m here. The peaceful, quiet, and stunning beauty of the morning sunrise never fails to amaze me. This is the place where I always find myself staying alone, meditating, and appreciating everything that life has to offer.

Pretty, pretty Lady!

And here comes your "Lovely Lady"—just woke up and had to rush to catch her love… love for nature, of course! 😉

This is my favorite part. I'm used to this because I’ve noticed that whenever I stay in the water for about 10 to 15 minutes, my nails become clean. But more than that, it’s so relaxing—feeling the waves wash over my feet as I walk along the shore. Such a wonderful feeling!

and..... back to reality once again. I'm thankful for today, such a satisfying feeling, no more LAUNDRY ANYMORE hahaha. I'm finally done!

Conclusion:
In the quiet of the morning, I find peace in nature’s embrace—whether it's the fresh start of a new month, the beauty of a sunrise, or the soothing feeling of waves at my feet. These simple moments remind me to slow down, appreciate life, and cherish every little thing that brings calm and joy to my heart. And I am thankful every day to God for allowing me to wake up, still alive and kicking.

Til then, thanks for stopping by!
