The finality of a sunset is an incredible thing.

The colors that result as the light dies, throwing its last efforts at the coming night.

That’s when people stop and stare, they revel in the fleeting beauty, when just a few hours before, the same light had gone completely unnoticed.

What does that tell us?

It says fractures and cracks make for a more enchanting picture.

Broken can be more beautiful than we ever imagined.

The moments before light succumbs to darkness can be the most breathtaking.

Yet as the sunset reminds us every day, the beauty must end.
