sunrise and sunset

we welcome the day with sunrise - well, most of us anyway.. the beginning of another day, with the sun shining bright, life around us bustling and rushing... the earth revolves yet again..

sunset comes with everything and everyone winding down, signing off, going home, dressing down and awaiting the next sunrise..

such is a human life too - sunrise of our lives begins at a baby's first cry, hustle and bustle of growing up, bright days of love and romance, rushing around the days of children and the joys of being a parent....

sunset sees life slowing down, the light dims, accepting that twilight dawns, contemplating that there were good sunrises, and working towards better sunsets.. before it gets dark and silent..

"Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass...
it's about learning how to dance in the rain!"

time flies

no sooner is she home, now we think about her leaving...

and its that time of the year - some people will be joyfully decorating, buying presents, planning holidays, and there will be some who will be lonely, poor, and wishing they had presents to give and receive..

and i sadly count the days when i have to give up this home, but i do look forward to moving back to the old home, albeit with some repairs and renewing in the works. it's more practical to dispose of this than that.

someone should invent work to be more enjoyable, more exciting, to everyone and not just some chosen few.

santa claus should be real so we can make real wishes..
