Rise

Last weekend I had to drive out to the country to visit my family.


There's a lot to love about the country - lush fields, green forests, cows - but there's also the downside of having to mix with people who want everyone to get up as early as they do. This was how I found myself, on a Sunday morning, staring into the inconsiderate beauty of a sunrise.





I am quite content to know, theoretically, that sunrises exist without having to actually witness them firsthand.
