Isn't it ironic...

I'm starting a blog centered around sunsets on such a rainy day. I guess I'll start off by telling a bit about myself and what I intend to accomplish here. First of all my name is Meredith. Call me what you wish, but my friends refer to me as Mere or Mooch (I love food!). If it isn't already obvious, I love sunsets! And yes, sunrises are nice too, I'm just not the type of person who can get up early enough to see them.

There's just something about the atmosphere of a quiet sunset that captivates me; so silent, yet screaming inspiration and thought. I am always amazed by each sunset I see, whether at my house, the beach, or even on a cruise in the middle of the Caribbean sea. The feelings they provoke and the thoughts they spark inspire me every day. As I sit on my hill every day that I can to watch the sun set beneath the trees, I lose myself in a world of thought and peace. I can let my thoughts dance and run free with no limits in my mind without any outside forces to affect the way I see things. I can dream freely without the barbed wire fence of society to stand in my way. I lose all influence and let myself be captivated by the one piece of perfection God has created for me.

Yet even in the midst of my dreams and goals, I'm constantly rushing back and forth to capture the best pictures I can of the unique canvas God has painted with the most beautiful colors. I hope that I can share these feelings and thoughts with the world and that the sunset can touch others' lives just as they have never ceased to touch mine.

The Touch of a Sunset is so subtle yet so powerful. It can captivate your heart and soul without you even knowing. You find yourself lost in a dream world where everything is perfect and nothing can taint your passions except the tints and pigments in the sky.

If I can put one touch of rosy sunset into the life of any man or woman, I shall feel that I have worked with God. ~G.K.Chesterson
