Sometimes when you're at your darkest, its the storm before the light. Today as I drove to work the sun was just coming up over the horizon, a gleaming orange globe after days of rain that felt like summer, Christmas, and a heart full of love all at the same time. Mount Rainier, an engraved silhouette against a misty sky. To top it off, Beautiful Day by U2 was playing on the radio. It's one of those moments you wish you could make eternal. One of those moments that make you believe in heaven, a moment that gives you hope.
The sun continued to rise as I neared the office, warm and glowing. It feels like a perfect day.
A day of enlightenment.
A day of new beginnings.
Beautiful post and picture. Cheers to new beginnings.
ReplyDeleteYour ride to work is much more scenic than mine. now I'm jealous.
ReplyDeleteDawn, thank you.
ReplyDeleteTravis, you may just need to take a different route. :)
I miss the Cascades so bad. My office window in Portland looked right at Mt. Hood--there was a guy in our office (from Michigan, ironically) who used to mark his calendar for 'mountain days' (meaning days the air was clear enough to see that 30 miles to the mountain). Glad the sun is coming out for you (in both senses)
