Sunrise, Sunset.

There’s something about sunrises and sunsets that feels magical, especially during the festive season. The golden glow of the early morning, the warm hues of evening stretching across the sky—it’s like nature’s own celebration. This year, I’m experiencing these moments in a whole new way: fully present, alcohol-free, and soaking in every second.  

In the past, I might have missed these simple but profound moments. A late night with drinks often meant sleeping through the dawn or feeling too groggy to appreciate it. Sunsets were sometimes just a backdrop to another glass of wine, more about the drink than the beauty unfolding before me. But now? Now they’re everything.  

Waking up to greet the sunrise has become one of my favorite rituals. There’s something so peaceful about the world in those early hours, the quiet stillness before the day begins. It feels like a fresh start, a reminder that each day is full of possibility. Watching the sun dip below the horizon is no less special—it’s a time to reflect, to feel gratitude, and to let the day close on a note of calm and connection.  

This festive season, as life buzzes with social events and summer activities, taking a moment to enjoy these natural wonders has been grounding for me. It’s a reminder of the simplicity and beauty of life, something that sobriety has helped me appreciate so much more.  

Being alcohol-free has stripped away the haze, allowing me to fully embrace the vivid colors of these moments. There’s no rush, no distraction, no need for anything else but the sky and the peace it brings. Watching a sunrise or sunset is about presence—it’s about showing up for yourself and finding joy in the world exactly as it is.  

This festive season, I’m toasting to the beauty of nature with a Bare Bubbly in hand. Whether it’s the soft pinks of a sunrise or the fiery oranges of a sunset, I’m here for it all, clear-minded and grateful. If you’re looking for a little magic this season, I highly recommend setting your alarm early or pausing for an evening moment to just watch and be.  

Cheers to sunrises, sunsets, and a Summer (or Winter) that sparkles brighter without alcohol. ✨🍋
