"Morning comes whether you set the alarm or not"

This quote by Ursula K. Le Guin speaks with the inevitability of modification and the passage of time. No matter what we do, morning will come. We can select to set an alarm and awaken early, or we can pick to oversleep and let the early morning come on its own. In either case, the early morning will come and the day will start. This quote is a reminder that we can't manage everything, and that we should accept the things that are out of our control. It's a tip to be mindful of the present moment and to take advantage of the time we have. We can't stop time, but we can choose how we spend it. We can choose to be proactive and make the most of our days, or we can pick to be passive and let the days pass us by. The choice is ours.
