“No Words”

Friday Night Sunset

No words. No words to describe the conscious weightlessness I experience on Friday afternoons when I leave work.  And when the afternoon turns into an evening sunset like this……man.

When time allows during the workday I get out of the office to take a walk. About 15 minutes. I make sure to take in the surroundings no matter how familiar they may seem.  Buildings, trees, vehicles, sounds. All in preparation for and in anticipation of Friday afternoon.  Good for a man of my generation to keep the body moving.

Come Friday afternoon when I arrive home from work, I get out of my car and walk to my backyard. I stand still and stare off into the sunset with my thoughts as clear as possible. Good for the my soul of a man of my age.  I carry this image through my weekend because I know that jealous Monday morning will surely take it away.

But for now it is Friday night and it’s sunset.  No words required.
