It is great to awaken to the newness of each day. Even as my eyes slowly adjusted to the tiny molecules of dust reflecting in the sun streaming through my window, I realized again the day was mine. A clichéd “carpe diem” was my first thought. This was followed by rapid blinking. So be it. This monster continues to seize each and every single day before her.
