There are good mornings, and then, there are gold mornings. A morning should be as refreshing as compared to the dew drops that make the nature look fresh every dawn. Since we are in a jet age where the sleep cycles have been violated in terms of work and entertainment, mornings have ceased to be golden ones that build the day.

Hamper from #Colgate360GoldMornings

I have never been a morning person. According to my parents, it was hell of a task to wake me up before school (and, well, college). Mother was the impatient one, and also burdened with all household work early in the morning. She would nudge me a few times, and if I didn’t respond, kept waking me up in high pitch from whichever part of the house she was. Father is always the calm, composed one in our nuclear family. When I was a child, he would cuddle and coax me to wake up for school. Gradually, he too became impatient. But the tactic he employed was beyond my irritation tolerance level. In summers, he would switch off the ceiling fan. In winters, he would snatch away my quilt. As I’m quite sensitive to both the extremes, I would be compelled to wake up immediately.

These days, I have a household to run myself. So the alarm clock is my only saviour. Though I resented it all my life, as I’m growing older, waking up early in the morning instills such a calmness that it lingers all through the day. A satisfied and relaxed session of brushing teeth, followed by a cold splash of water, and my morning cuppa makes a good morning. But recently I received a mighty surprise that turned good mornings definitely into gold ones. Take a look.

The hamper from Colgate is stunningly golden, with the new Colgate 360 Charcoal Gold toothbrush in a lovely black box, a beautiful golden scroll, a golden coffee mug for the cuppa lover in me, and a handy golden sipper bottle.

I’ve been using the toothbrush for some time now, and it’s one of the best. The reach and contour of the brush is very scientific and unique. It fills the mouth with freshness after each use, adding a golden hue to the morning. Try it, and you won’t regret.
