The present
is the only moment that is truly ours,
and we ought to make use of it.
-Blaise Pascal
Every so often I get to really see the sunset, in all its surreal fire and glory, and I am struck by the fact that I have access to the greatest show on earth, every night, for free; and yet most nights I miss it.
I mean, not to be morbid or anything, but we don’t know what tomorrow brings; I have only a limited number of sunsets left, whatever that number may be.
I think I owe it to myself to catch as many of those sunsets as possible; the fact that it is free of charge makes it no less astonishing, miraculous, or beautiful.
