Crystal Clear

Right now, the sky is a brilliant gradient of colour which starts on the horizon as deep red and the moves through orange, yellow, gold, mauve and finally blue. It is just breathtaking. I am eagerly anticipating the burst of fire of the sun when it finally crests the horizon. Last night, we both remarked that it was one of the clearest nights we had seen in ages. You could every single star on our drive up to Collingwood. You could see for hundreds of kilometres.

I can't help but wonder if things in my own head aren't getting clearer. Perhaps the sunrise and the clear night are reflections of a process at work in my own psyche. Maybe that's all it ever is. Perhaps we are meant to take note of what is happening on our environment and use it to inform what is happening inside of us. It's a totally different way of looking at the world but it works.
