I’m Rashi, a working woman, and every morning I have the same feeling.

Before the notifications start coming in, before work deadlines, household responsibilities, and the endless rush of the day take over, there is a small window of peace. A cup of tea in hand, the cool morning air, and a few minutes of silence.

Sometimes I sit by the window and think about life.

We’re always chasing something—better jobs, bigger homes, more money, more success. But in those quiet morning moments, I often wonder: Are we appreciating what we already have?

As a middle-class person, I’ve grown up hearing, “Work hard today so tomorrow will be better.” It’s a beautiful thought, but sometimes it feels like we’re so focused on tomorrow that we forget to live today.

Mornings remind me that happiness isn’t always hidden in big achievements. Sometimes it’s in small things—watching the sunrise, hearing birds chirp, or simply having a peaceful start to the day.

So here’s my question to everyone:

What is one thought that comes to your mind almost every morning? Has it changed the way you look at life?

I’d love to hear your experiences.
