Sunset sanity
As I was driving home tonight, hoping to beat the ever earlier darkness, I was privileged to see a beautiful sunset.
The sky melted from grey/white/blue into a deep indigo/peach/orange with streaks that ran for miles. The clouds turned from fluff white into holders of gold and fire red.
It was amazing. Enough to make me stop and watch for a few moments.
Sometimes, I am not very good at taking those few moments to stop from all of my frantic hustle.
I need to fix that.
Sunsets are not just the end of a day's light, they are a signal that a time of rest (for most of us) is on it's way.
And, I suspect, we all could use a good rest.
Rest well. You are worth it.

I have come to love sunrise and sunset as transitions.
Transitions are a necessary part of life that occur in so many ways. I find the beauty and peace of day-to-night and night-to-day a beautiful reminder that as one thing passes, another is born.
