“the grand show is eternal.
it is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never all dried at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising.
eternal sunrise, eternal sunset, eternal dawn and eternal glowing…
as the round earth rolls.”
-john muir

It passed me by. It’s in the past for I forgot all about it.
I have a new 2024 calendar and I will draw a big sun on that date. :)

One of my favorite quotes! I posted it myself sometime in the last year. It’s always sunrise somewhere. So full of hope and reassurance.

I always love this day because psychologically I know we will be getting more light every day, even though the amount is too small to really notice for awhile.

That is so true. At work I sometimes made admittedly big mistakes, I sometimes was recognized for good performance, and sometimes I was the messenger who performed well but was killed for enforcing unpopular truth. I used to console myself with the belief that at least I knew I did a good job!
