Solace at
Sunset

Bob
Perks
Life
appears empty
sometimes. Times like losing a job, ending a marriage, loss of a
loved one,
or financial collapse.

All endings. I guess that's it.
Things that
end remain empty and hard to fill, replace or let go.

Then
how do you
explain sunsets?

It is indeed an end to something or many
things.
The day ends, the celebration concludes, the band stops playing, the
dance
is over, the lights go out and we "call it a day."

Seems empty to
me.
Why then do we love sunsets? It seems to go so fast when you don't want the

day to end and much too slow when you can't wait for it to be
over.

My
curiosity asked "How long is a sunset?" My searching found
this answer. Rather
factual, cold and lacking any emotional ties to the
experience, still the
answer.

"It very much depends on the observer's
latitude. On the
equator, it would take about 2 minutes because the Sun is
moving perpendicular
to the horizon.. At other latitudes, it moves at a
shallower angle. For
example, at latitude 50 degrees, it takes about 4
minutes. From the north or
south pole, it takes more than a day because it
is a function of the Earth's
orbital motion, not its rotation. Atmospheric
refraction makes the Sun appear
higher in the sky and will tend to slightly
increase these times." (Yahoo
Answers)

"How long does a sunset
take?"
A sunset takes the colors
of the day, the beauty of a collection
of moments, the very essence of ever
having been, and squeezes them into
enough time to remember, forget, embrace,
let go, fall in love, sigh, kiss,
wave goodbye or say "thanks." It does all
that and means much more
depending on what you believe, where you are in life
and where you live on
Earth. (Bob Perks)

Perhaps it is not so much the
event that captures
my heart but knowing it will all happen again, but never the
same.

It
is knowing that, that gives me "Solace at
Sunset."

Remember
These
Words
Don't let go of

hope.
Hope gives you the strength to keep
going when you feel like
giving
up.

Don't ever quit believing in yourself.
As long as you
believe you
can,
you will have a reason for trying.

Don't let
anyone hold
your
happiness in their hands;
hold it in yours, so it
will always
be
within you reach.

Don't measure success or failure
by
material wealth,
but by how you feel;
our feelings determine the
richness
of our
lives.

Don't let bad moments overcome you;
be
patient, and they will
pass.

Don't hesitate to reach out for
help;
we all need it from time
to time.

Don't run away from love
but towards
love, because it is our
deepest joy.

Don't wait for
what you want to come to
you; go after it
with all that you
are,
knowing that life will meet you halfway.

Don't
feel like
you've lost when plans
and dreams fall short of your
hopes.
Anytime
you learn something new about
yourself or about life, you
have
progressed.

Don't do anything that takes away from
your

self-respect; feeling good about
yourself is essential to feeling good
about
life.

Don't ever forget how to laugh or be
too proud to
cry.
It is
by doing both that we live life to its
fullest.

The First
Day
==============
Today is the
first day of
spring.

Spring is heralded by the vernal equinox.
An
equinox happens
when day and night are exactly equal.
Equinoxes occur
twice each year.

On this day, light and darkness are
equal.

In our lives,
we
often have a tendency to let the darkness
overpower the
light.

Remember,
there is just as much light as
there is
darkness.

The thing about spring, from tomorrow forward, the
light
of
each day increases while the darkness decreases.

Remember

that.

You can choose which part you live in.
You can choose which
part
you will focus on.

Which part will you live in and focus

on?

...light or darkness?

The light is
increasing.

Remember
that.
