This time of year I try to sit on the right side of the train on my way home, and watch the sun as it sets. I just get a glimpse of it every now and then between buildings and trees, and I note to myself where I get the last glimpse of it. Every day, it's a little farther along the line; in another month or two, it will be on the horizon when I get off the train. Now, when I get on my bike in the evening, there's just a glimmer of light in the western sky, but soon enough I'll actually see the sun on the horizon again as I'm going over the bridge over the tracks.... It's a hopeful time!
