A week or so ago I had just finished a tough workout at my big box gym and was heading back to my car around sunrise. I looked up and saw the most beautiful and massive pink and purple ripples stretched out from the edge of the horizon to where I was standing. It was so impressive that I had to stop a moment in the middle of the parking lot and soak it in. Then, within 2 minutes, the clouds had shifted and everything returned to a depressing gray.

Beauty like this is everywhere, but it sure can be fleeting.

Then, within 2 minutes … everything returned to a depressing gray

2 minutes is a pretty high score though

If beauty weren’t fleeting there’d be no reason to notice it
