A 6am start
Written on March 5, 2010 at 4:19 pm by Sam C
Getting up at 6am isn’t good for me. Or so I thought.
Michelle (my TimeBank mate) and I went to The Passage on Tuesday morning to volunteer to serve breakfast to homeless people. I had a hard time staying away from the sausages and bacon but luckily I was kept busy buttering toast.
It gives you a wake up call (literally) getting even just a small glimpse into a homeless person’s life and it made me realise how lucky I am. That might sound a bit naff but work has been so busy recently and I’ve even been moaning that I’m tired because of a few nights out.
So actually sometimes 6am starts can be good for you.

It doesn’t sound naff at all. In fact, I think it reconnects us – those of us in this work – to get out of the office, do a project, remember what we’re in it for…
