A new month, a new sunrise 11/1/11

     It still amazes me, with all the sunrises I've experienced here, that out of the darkness comes vibrant colors, intense, what I see as a tropical rainbow.  Then the intensity dims to dull gray, as if the sun will never rise.  Morning will never come.  The sun comes suddenly, splitting the gray, bringing warmth and energy and a brand new day.  Apt metaphor for life.  Hold on to those intense flashes of something good to come.  Have faith when the flashes dim and nothing happens.  When the time is right, you will see the light shining just for you, showing you the way.
     A lone fisherman stakes his poles in the sand as soon as the sun is up.  Doesn't matter that it's 41 degrees with 16 mph north winds.  He's determined to catch some fish.
