My Favorite Color

I had the luxury of sitting and watching the sun rise today. A few thoughts raced through my mind over and over as I sat there. I desperately wanted to share them with everyone who passed. Instead I just smiled really big and hoped they would ask themselves why someone would have reason to be so ecstatic so early in the morning.
 "Her life must be perfect!" That's what I would tend to think. In all actuality I have scarcely been as lost and floundering as I am right now, but wonderful things can still happen. The fact that at the same time that I am experiencing this sunrise someone else is seeing a sunset that must be as stunning as what I am seeing. The fact that I get to feast my eyes on my favorite colors day after day. Not everyone has that luxury! For one, not everyone's favorite color is the sky. Not everyone gets to see the sky day after day. I got to sit for a full hour just staring at one of my favorite things. Then the sun appeared. It took him long enough, but once he was there it was astounding how fast he moved. For the first few moments after the sun appeared I could still look up and see one last star shining bravely, then the star's light was absorbed into the brightening blue of the sky.
Everyone should experience the pleasure of watching a sunrise at least once in their life.
Now I just need to warm up. Every person, have a lovely day
