I See The Light

Finally! I got up this morning and saw the light. The sunlight. For the past few months when I awaken, it is totally dark. I drag myself out of bed to start the day. I wake up the same time every day, even on the weekends. Six thirty. People often ask me why I do not sleep late, on my days off. It is not that I do not want to, it is that my body has it's own alarm clock. When I saw the sunlight today, I thought that maybe I had overslept. I squinted at the clock and saw 6:32. I also saw a stream of sunshine on my wall. I immediately smiled. For the next few weeks, until we turn the clocks ahead on March 11, I will wake up to light. What a treat.
