How do you wake up in the morning?
I know some people wake up to their favorite music. Some have a two "snooze-button-limit". My son has an iPod dock that allows him to wake up to any song he chooses. I prefer to wake up to CBC radio every morning. I like to re-emerge from my slumber by listening to an engaging conversation.

When I am really lucky, I wake up to something interesting. When this happens, it helps kick-start my day in a positive way (ooh, that rhymes!).
The other day there was a man talking about his hit blog and subsequent book. The idea for the whole thing came out of a really hard time in his life. It wasn't a "this too shall pass" story - it was a much more human story of how we all suffer difficult times in our lives, and how we cope and manage to overcome them.
This blog came from a man's difficulty with hard times and how his decision to focus on the little things helped get him through. By concentrating on the easily-overlooked moments that tend to escape us, he helped himself cope with the bigger picture.
Some things on this blog are silly, some are funny, and some are a bit profound.

Here's hoping we can all appreciate those little moments!
