A Good Day

I had a vacation day, but still got up before the sunrise - not too hard to do here in the Midwest during the second shortest day of the year. I was outside as the sun began to rise. To the east there was the sun; westward there was a cloud ceiling. I watched as the clouds turned that early morning sun somewhat-pinkish-but-somewhat-purplish-but-not-yellow-or-orangish color. You know the sky I mean? Anyways, it was beautiful and the air was fresh and felt great in the lungs. One of those quasi-spiritual mini-events where I was just glad to have the moment to enjoy.

Do yourself a favor today. Take a few moments to just get away from the hustle and bustle, go outside and take a few deep breaths, and enjoy life. Find something out there that moves you.

The clock finally hit midnight. It is now Christmas Eve here in my time zone. Merry Christmas, everyone. And if you don't celebrate Christmas, have a Merry Day.
