Building A Sunday

The only day of the week I don’t set my alarm is on Sundays. Which is quite the risk, since I love a morning well-spent and would dearly regret missing it by sleeping in. Still, I commit myself to carelessness: I go to bed Saturday night without setting my alarm and I almost always wake up earlier than I usually do on any other weekday. While I believe I am a pragmatic person, there is something to be said about indulging in simple acts of faith.
