A LIFE WELL-LIVED...

WHEN IT'S MY TIME TO GO
Bury My Heart Where I First Saw The Sunrise!

There is a place in my life where my first memories are born, a quiet corner of the world where the sun seemed brighter, the mornings felt gentler, and the horizon promised endless possibilities.

It is the place where I first saw the sunrise, not only with my eyes but with the wonder of a young heart discovering the world for the first time.

The sunrise of childhood carries a special kind of magic.
Each morning felt like a new beginning, as if the world itself were waking up alongside me.
The golden light stretching across the sky painted the fields, the trees, and the rooftops with warmth and hope.
In that moment, the world seemed simple and kind, and life was measured not in years but in memories.

That place where the first sunrise touched my life became more than just a location on a map.
It became the foundation of who I am.
The voices of family, the laughter of friends, the familiar paths and quiet evenings all formed the roots of my identity.
Even as time carries me far from where I began, those early mornings remain within me like a compass pointing back home.

Life eventually leads me beyond those horizons.
I travel, I grow older, and I gather new experiences in distant places.
Yet no matter how far the journey goes, the memory of that first sunrise never fades.
It reminds me of innocence, of beginnings, and of the simple joy of being alive in a world still full of promise.

When I say "bury my heart where I first saw the sunrise", I'm not only wishing to return to that place, I'm also longing to rest where life first felt meaningful, where love and belonging first took root.

It is a tribute to the soil that nurtured me and the skies that first taught me to dream.

In the end, while my paths may lead me to many distant sunsets, my heart often remembers only one dawn, the first sunrise that quietly told me I'm finally home.
