Ironic you should say that Jeff...

Because Wes and I were on out the motorbike today to see the most beautiful pink/blue/purple sunset you can imagine.

And I thought, "I will never be able to decide which is better; the sun rising or the sun setting."

Sunset exemplifies the end of a day, whether it be a good day or a bad day. If it's a bad day, a sunset means it's over, the weight is lifted off your shoulders, tomorrow can only be better. If it's a good day, it's finished off by a contenting sight. If it's neither a good nor bad day, then just maybe that beautiful sunset will add that little something-something to nudge towards at least a productive day and the feeling of accomplishment.

But a sunrise... it gives you the feeling that nothing can wrong that day. "I have bad days even though the sunrises everyday," you say? Well, are you up to see the sunrise? With a cup of coffee in one hand? A cig in the other, perhaps? Birds chirping? No cars to be heard? Complete early morning serenity? Well then, that's why you still have bad days. Duh.

As for me, some more wine me thinks.

...

Alrighty, now that that bottle is gone (there were only two large glasses worth in it anyway) I've decided that I need a few opinions.

Which do you prefer, sunrise or sunset, and why?

I think I'm going to lean towards sunrise... because it's more exclusive :P
