Is getting up early in the morning bothers you?

I've read this expression just a few minutes ago. "Don't complain because you have to get up early every morning. The time may come when you can't get up - period." I guess when we are already old enough, even we like to get up, we can no longer get up. Time will come that we'll be bed-ridden. Let's enjoy getting up every morning. Happy mylotting.

Every morning is a gft from God that we always need to treasure. It doesn't really bothers me getting up in the morning. I am always in focus that once I get up that's the time for me to earn. Gladly most of my time spent over the internet are paid. God bless us all.

Oh, we are the same. Before, when I woke up in the morning due to my neighbor's noise, I just spent my morning washing my laundry. We moved in to a new house and we are lucky, we have a wifi connection there. Now, when I wake up every morning, I log in to myLot. I maximize my time writing comments, responses and sometimes my own discussions. It's really great to wake up early in the morning.

Totally agree with you fatlex,every morning is a treasure. I've worked jobs a different times, day or night and when the sun rises you know it's a new beginning to start new and to be thankful that you're still able to.

I noticed that as I was getting older, I was getting up early than i used to. My grandparents wake up at 4am. I'm pretty sure they didn't have that habit when they were young. The more we get older, the less we tend to sleep. I don't know what the scientific explanation to this is but I've observed that for a long time now. As to the saying, it only means that getting up early is such a petty thing to even complain about. We get up early for work, we get up early to go to school. We just have to be thankful that we can get up, because others no longer have that chance anymore.

Yes, I agree with you. We are lucky to get up because others can't get up anymore. Getting up is a bit hard for others especially if they have to wake up really early in the morning. Happy mylotting.

It is a blessing to be able to get up in the morning and we should always give thanks to God that we are able to do so for He has blessed us with another day. Good post.

Oh, yes. It's quite difficult to get up especially if the weather is so cold. I also don't like getting up especially in December, January and February. The coldest months of the year.

I am not really a morning person. More of a night person. I don't like waking up very early in the morning unless I had a good nights rest before. I have always work late and night shifts. It took a while for my family to understand that if I just got in from work at 4am that I do not want to wake up at 7am. My family has always been morning people, but because I have work so many late shifts, and graveyard shifts, I don't know much about mornings.

Oh, I understand you. Many people now are working late at night especially call center agents. I am not a call center agent but I also sometimes get up late. I have to end at work at 11pm and when I get home, I can't sleep immediately. I go to bed around 1 or 2am so I get up between 9am to 11am. Even though we can not get up early in the morning at least when it's time for us to get up we are happy that we have the chance to get up again.We face our day with a light heart not a heavy one.Thanks for sharing.

I wake up everyday at 4am. I would want to stay in bed but couldn't coz I have to prepare breakfast for my 4 kids who will be leaving the house at 6am. But that is okay. I think when we get older, we wake up earlier than the usual. When I was still a kid, no matter how late I sleep, my dad would always wake me up before 8am during weekends. I think it was his way of instilling discipline among us siblings.

Yes, it's good to wake up early in the morning. We can do a lot of things and we won't rush doing them. We should sleep early in order to wake up early. Happy mylotting.

I don't like getting up early, but that quote definitely has some truth to it. I'll try and keep it in mind. :)

Oh, that's great to hear. Bear it in mind. It's better to get up early in the morning than not getting up at all. We should be thankful that we can still get up unlike other people.

There are times when I wouldn't mind sleeping in but for the most part I don't mind getting up warly. My daughter wakes up early so I don't have a choice to sleep in most days. But I like being up early because I can get a lot done before most people are even up!

Yes, it's really nice to get up early in the morning in order to get things done early too. Like the saying, "early to bed, early to rise." Am I remembering it correctly? LOL. Thanks for sharing and happy mylotting.
