For the first time in a long time the sun was out! I drove in a car that had the sun roof up and literally just turned my face to the sun and gave myself to it . . .(no I wasn't driving!)
I felt like for a few short hours there was nothing that could be bigger than I was and then the sun set . . . and I remembered: friends whose young child is critically ill, friends whose older child is sick, family who struggle with life choices, the people of Japan, the people of everywhere really . . .
and then I remembered the sun!
I remembered how people are basically good, how faithful my friends are, how faithful our God is to us, and I realized that the road may not always be easy but the sun will come up again, and we will have a chance to make the day better just by being a part of it!
Speaking of sun, this is a picture of the first sunrise of 2011:
