The days have been dark and dreary but yesterday as I worked I thought I saw the slightest glimmer of light. It caught my eye while I was working and I realized the reason I noticed it was because a small strip had actually appeared across my desk. I followed it with my gaze from one edge of my laptop to the end of my desk. It must have taken a mere two seconds before my head jerked up and turned to the windows. It was brighter. I could feel the same happening inside of me. A smile was tempting it's way out as I actually saw some sky with numerous clouds keeping it close company.
By the time I went to lunch the sun had braved its way out and was shining brightly. The clouds had moved away and I was left with nothing but warm rays and blue hues overhead. The air was sweeter and lightly played with the edges of my napkin as I was able to sit outside and bask in the best hour I have spent in months. The warmth, the sun and sky while sitting out during my free hour in the middle of a hectic day? I couldn't have asked for much more at the time.
It all seems too good to be true. Well, oh course, but it isn't. It isn't true. I write fiction, remember? It's all in my imagination and yesterday was as drab, dreary and dark as all the others we have had in succession.
I just had to find a way to make the best of it and well, this helped.
