Showers.

Because they’re a good melatonin substitute at night, and a good coffee substitute in the morning. They’re relaxing, soothing, and one of the few times in the day where you’re left to your thoughts. Taken at night, you can reflect on your day and your actions, make game plans for the next day, and mentally prepare yourself for sleep. Taken in the morning, you can wake yourself up, get your mind jogging, and make a list of the things you need to do throughout the day. Not to mention the singing. Singing is a must.

Today I took a morning and a night shower, mainly because I needed to. Sometimes it just feels good to take that extra shower to cool off from a physically or mentally exhausting day. It gave me time to unwind and step back from my worries, reminding me that there’s always a tomorrow. Which means there’s always a fresh start to be made. That’s what I like about new days. Regardless of what happened the day before, a new day can carry a solution to whatever it is you need an answer to. Though it may take time and a little effort on your part, a new day can create positive change.

My extra night shower reminded me of this fact. That tomorrow, I can start over. Which is definitely, definitely a good thing.
