Here Comes The Light

i didn't take this picture as i may have mentioned before that i'm a lousy photography (sad, but true), but i think of images like this every day. i think because i rarely see the sunrise. i could complain, but the trade off is that most days i skip out of the office around 4:00 p.m.

but as the sky begins to lighten, even at 6:30 a.m., i find myself wanting to see the sun come up. i catch glimpses of it, every day, through various windows. and maybe it's because we're in a hard part of winter. the part where it seems like spring is still months off. where even though it's lighter a wee bit later, it doesn't seem like enough makes it to my face.

maybe that's why i crave seeing the streaks across the sky, the sun peeking over the horizon, and the light, the glorious light warming my cold bones.
