Damn That Light is Bright!

Does the sunlight ever pierce through the shades in the morning? To let you know it's time for the new day. Your eyes slowly peel open like a...  You don't want to get up. The rest feels so good but that voice inside your head says come on we don't want to feel guilty for wasting the time or in most cases that thing called a job is lurking.  The gears inside your body slowly start firing like a frozen car sitting outside in January (God Bless you if you're the rare Bimmer quietly purring in the garage).

But wait...there is a pause. You gaze at the light and look around the room in your spare moments. Right before you ponder how to start your day or what is on the docket the flashback of life zooms through your mind. It is right then the accomplishments to the change in person you've become to the people through it all start fluttering in your mind. This moment, this very moment is soooo good. It may not last as long as it should but that moment of reflection reads "Thankful".  I sit and I read that word and in the pure flowing space of time I can't help but look at everything in my past and present and go "damn that light is bright!"
