at 5.45 am
to be precise. I am out walking when the street lights are still on, and the air
is still crisp. I only meet a few fellow walkers this early. I like this time
of the day. 
The air is refreshingly cool. Twenty-four degrees C is glorious weather here
and it only happens at dawn.
It is so quiet I can hear the “fat” rain drops on
the leaves when there is a drizzle. Rain, even a drizzle is seldom "light" in
Malaysia.
Evidence as shown on my phone – LIGHT rain with THUNDER!
Some days when I am preoccupied "with problems 🤣 of the world 🤣," I forget to appreciate the gifts in life. I am just so obsessed with walking briskly to get over my morning work out, I FAIL to realise that, “Hey, I am breathing WITHOUT a mask. NO police man will fine me RM10,000.” In Malaysia, exercising is the only time we are allowed outdoors without a mask.
Only
at dawn with the moist air do I get to see the magic in the street lights. 
Blue
lights 
golden lights.
My friends are already warming up 
time to head off for HOME
Wow, yesterday there were lots of loud thunders here, so I didn't dare look at the window. creepy
ReplyDeleteIndonesia and Malaysia have tropical thunder storms with lots of lightning and thunder. I also stay away from windows and draw the curtains.
DeleteBeautiful. I start my day before dawn but rarely get outside and walk. You have convinced me that I have made a mistake...
ReplyDeleteHope you get to feel as happy as me outside at dawn.
DeleteYour day begins when mine ends hehe: D Just about 5am I finish work 😄 Lovely photos 😘😘
ReplyDeleteTQ. Amazing how the world spins isn't it? One side is day and the opposite side is night. I could never understand this when i was a kid.
DeleteNice to hear they allow people to go walking or do exercise without mask there. My dad going walking daily wearing the mask but he would pull down the mask to neck when he walk on empty streets. I always like shooting lights and lamps and you got a series of wonderful shots on the street lights in different shades.
ReplyDeleteWe are lucky to be allowed to exercise without masks. TQ, I think I got a good dawn day which had rain earlier on so the air was damp enough to bring our the rays.
DeleteThanks for this inspiring post. Stay safe!
ReplyDeleteTQ for dropping in.
Deletewhat a nice post - i enjoyed your photos and what you wrote. I have never gotten up at that time of day to walk ...I imagine it's great. I live in the mountains and I'm sure I would be surprised at the beauty then.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great place to live - in the mountains. Wonder if it will be too dark or cold to walk at dawn?
DeleteWah pernah mencapai 24 derajat cel...terbayang cukup dingin untuk keseharian kita yang biasanya beriklim tropis ya Kak ...i love your photos because they can tell 'something'..
ReplyDeleteTerima kasih. Masa awal pagi (subuh) sangat sujuk. Memang seronok pada masa ini. Betuk kata anda, jarang dapat 24 derajat di tropis.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely time of day to go out and exercise. It is good to take time to appreciate the small things and let problems slide away:)
