sunset

after a really long time, i was driving home at the right time and location to witness the most beautiful sunset. i was zipping home after spending the day with my grandmother, and as i emerged over the sprint highway the almost blinding rays of the seting sun shot straight into my welcoming eyes.

the liquid gold of the setting sun sent out warm yellow rays that turned into dusky pink fingers that curled gently around tufts of perfect white clouds in a clear blue sky. despite the spattering of raindrops that refused to stop faling, the sunshine was obstinately warm.

i had completely forgottem how much hope a sunset can inspire. and i had completely forgotten what feeling inspired by hope felt like.
