September 14

Adam and I went for a walk after dinner this evening. The sunset evolved as we strolled, and the show was a breathtaking, ever-morphing display of vibrant pinks and oranges and yellows. Of course, as luck would have it, we both left our phones at home, so there was no way to record it for posterity's sake, but I snapped this the second we got home, just a few minutes after the final tinge of orange faded to gray.

Human life isn't always beautiful, but we all have moments that are reminiscent of that sunset: beautiful and spectacular and utterly captivating. It's our choice to decide whether or not we're going to fully appreciate them and carry memories of the brillance into less beautiful times.

As for me, I'll watch the sun dip into the horizon every time.
