Sunrises and Cold Mornings

Here are some photos I took of my morning walks up to campus last week. These photos are the reminder of why I get up for my 8am classes five times a week…



I’m a week late on posting these photos, but I didn’t want to go too much longer without sharing them! The sunrises lately have been so pretty and I’ve been early to my classes, allowing me to take the extra time to capture some of these beautiful mornings.


This photo, by far, is one of my favorites I’ve taken. I love all the vibrant colors and the way the library lights up like this in morning.

It’s interesting how a walk I take everyday to and from campus seems to change day to day. I feel like I’m starting to notice the little things I would have never thought twice about.



Below is a quote I came across and thought it was fitting for the photos above…


“Don’t use the future to escape the present”


This, to me, encapsulates my daily routine and walk to classes. It is so easy to get caught up in the ideas of future plans and what I want to do with my life after college. It is easy to get swept up in the future and not focus on the here and now. It seems like college is so forward looking, making it easy to get caught up in plans big ideas for the near future. It’s important to take time and be thankful for the here and now. We need to look up from our phones, unplug our headphones and just enjoy the world around us.
