Sunshine
There is a sliver of sunshine on my wall this morning. Its about an inch across is all. It reflects off the painting over the couch and onto the wall unit, doubling in size. I reach my hand out to it, marvelling in the hues of apricot and orange. It warms my hand ever so slightly. It warms my heart immensely. I usually get to watch out my window, covetous of the neighbouring buildings. I live in the north. My apartment also faces north. Daylight here ranges from 17.8 hours in the summer to 6.8 hours in the winter. We have officially been in spring for almost a month. I crave the sun and its wonderous warmth, its vitamin inducing benefits. Perhaps this is a good sign, for when I moved in last year, I never had the sun hit my windows. I will set my alarm if need be, in order to enjoy the bounty of the day.
