A little girl woke up every morning before school, just as the sun was rising.

She made sure to go to sleep early enough in the evening to wake up early enough in order to see this fantastic event.

It was a phenomenon that occurred every single day without fail.

She would of course tell her friends and family about this daily, momentous, occasions, but it apparently did not strike them as so fabulous; especially so early in the morning.

But it did not matter, she was in league with an ancient tradition…

...since time immemorial people have endeavored to catch sight of one of the most beautiful things in the whole world.

20 minutes before sunrise, she would wake and prepare herself for the upcoming day so she could begin her day uninhibited after catching glimpse of this sight.

When the time came, she would climb up onto the highest branch of the oak tree in her backyard…

...and enjoy the time by herself.
