Here I am, contemplating committing to a seventh year of chasing every sunrise. How did we get this far? When I say we, I don’t mean you and I, but the sun and I.

I feel silly admitting I’m still doing this daily, like someone is laughing at me. And somehow,when I think how far this project has come, it feels like four years, maybe give. Two years seem to vanish instantly, and maybe that’s a result of the COVID years. Not, it’s not four years, nor five. But six full years of this project behind me and a seventh underway.

It’s inevitable at this point. It’s necessary. It’s less of a choice and more of a knowing, this is what I have to do.

It’s still silly, both can be true.
