Sunrises do, too. Although, not being a morning person, I don't see as many sunrises as I do sunsets.
I had the pleasure of visiting a neighbor from my childhood home located in Rochester, NY. Her youngest child is a daughter that is my age. We grew up together and made so many memories in our neighborhood.
Wife of her late husband, mother of 3, grandmother of 6, she retired in a quiet community on the Gulf side of Florida. Her home is a quiet hideaway a few miles from the beach.
Being newly married, I was anxious for her to meet my husband. I appreciate her perspective so much more as an adult than I did as a kid. She not only watched me grow up but poured into me throughout my life.
During our visit, we went one evening in pursuit of a sunset. While driving, we could see the red sun plunging into the horizon. Once we got out of the car and landed on the beach, the sun was gone. The colors were still breathtaking.
Our visit was a wonderful time sharing memories of the neighborhood. She is a lovely woman that I am so fortunate to have known for so long. One whom I will cherish forever.
