If you live in my town, I hope you saw how the day began. 
My east blinds were closed. The house was still dark.
I glanced from the kitchen toward the chicken coop. A new habit.
The coop and surrounding area were radiant. I knew they were only reflecting.
As I stood on the front porch, drinking in the rich elixir of dawn, I made my first choice. This was my day. Everything that would occur from this moment until I closed my eyes tonight would be colored by this light. Of the Things I get to do today, this is the only one that is ever really important. Choose to see everything in its brilliant, blazing best. And look at the sky. Often.
