#AugustWritingChallenge - Sunrise - Day 16

Sometimes I suffer from the most horrible insomnia. Some nights I never sleep. This has allowed me to witness some of the most beautiful sunrises ever.

I love watching to sun rise in the morning. A new day is beginning and with it are new mercies and new opportunities, new chances to make today better than the day before. It reminds me that I am such a small part of a vast universe. It is fascinating that light from a star that is trillions of miles away can travel all the way to Earth and shine in my window every morning.

Because of all the technology available to me, sometimes I forget how wonderful that actual world is and has always been. Every once in a while I like to stop for a minute and just observe. It helps me quite my mind.
