\"wilson<\/a>I rarely set my alarm clock.<\/p>\n

If I notice a little morning light streaming into my bedroom and am able to make out the glowing red digits on my clock radio (a dependable GE number, ready, no doubt, for the small appliance museum), and I can see that it\u2019s after 6:00, I decide I\u2019m ready for the day.<\/p>\n

Now that I have a dog, it\u2019s like having a truth machine (a better term than a lie detector). If I stir even the slightest bit underneath my cool white sheets, the jig is up. India knows I\u2019m awake. There\u2019s no use pretending otherwise.<\/p>\n

She\u2019ll put her paws up on the side of my bed as I brush the wispy dreamtime strands of hair out of my face. She\u2019ll look at me with soft, loving deep space dark eyes as she balances on her hind legs and tries to position her head under my outstretched hand.<\/p>\n

She doesn\u2019t bark. She just bounces around the side of my bed with great excitement. Taking long naps during the day as she does, she\u2019s probably been awake already for some time, just waiting for this moment — when she can detect that I\u2019m awake, too.<\/p>\n

\u201cCome on. Come on. Let\u2019s go,\u201d she seems to be telling me. \u201cThe day has started. Let\u2019s go see what\u2019s happening?\u201d<\/p>\n

I stumble to find a pair of shorts and a tee to put on (deciding the one I wore yesterday will do). I fill my pockets with my over-sized ring of keys and a few plastic bags, poop bags that I\u2019ve either been gifted (I have people saving NY Times<\/em><\/strong> delivery sleeves for me) or pilfered from a re-cycling bin at a local grocery store.<\/p>\n

India puts up a bit of a fuss while I get her little pink harness on then quickly forgets her discomfort as she leads me to the door so we could start our morning walk.<\/p>\n

She might not pee for ten minutes. She\u2019s quick to the door not out of a sense of urgency. It\u2019s more like she\u2019s bursting with the expectation of adventure; a simple sort of joy.<\/p>\n

I like to mix up our routes. The train might still cross our path, but it doesn\u2019t run as frequently as it does during prime commuting time. We\u2019ll come across an occasional jogger, an over-achieving backpack burdened teen, or other dogs and their people on leashes, but, for the most part, the neighborhood is still quiet.<\/p>\n

I love the stillness of the morning.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s still cool from the night. Birds and insects are talking to each other. I don\u2019t try to figure anything out. My mind doesn\u2019t run through what it thinks it might get called upon to do during the day.<\/p>\n

I only have to make a decision when we reach a corner (Should we turn or cross the street?). I hold on tightly to the leash in case India becomes aware of a chase-able object like a squirrel long before I notice one around, but I don\u2019t fret about anything.<\/p>\n

I watch her for cues, whether she wants to pee or sniff something interesting. I\u2019m always prepared to fish something out of her mouth, something she\u2019s found like abandoned pistachio shells, but it\u2019s all part of the adventure. What will we find on our path today?<\/p>\n

I love the sounds within the soundlessness of the morning. It\u2019s too early for honking car horns or overhearing cell phone conversations I\u2019d rather not listen to but might be exposed to later in the day.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d like to think poetically about walking to my heartbeat, but that\u2019s not exactly the truth.<\/p>\n

I hear the sounds of my sandaled feet scuffling along the sidewalk. My footsteps always sound heavy to my ears.<\/p>\n

Then I\u2019ll tune into the sound of my furry and fiercely curious companion as her nails, lightly clicking against the sidewalk, announce her movements.<\/p>\n

Whether I\u2019m looking at the openness of Wilson Avenue, oddly without cars, or am merely grateful I can cross the tracks without having to wait for a train to pass, I love these moments of morning stillness.<\/p>\n

I love looking at India who has already traveled these sidewalks many times and doesn\u2019t seem to grow tired of the walk. I love seeing her face full of curiosity and enthusiasm; full of surprise.<\/p>\n

Everything she comes across seems to surprise and delight her. Our lives are full.<\/p>\n

Appreciating that moments of morning stillness are full of possibilities, like an orchestra conductor raising his baton before the first note, is no small thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
