I had stopped by our local Walmart on the way home from the hospital to pick up a few things for my husband. He was at that moment in a hospital bed suffering from a major stroke, and I was exhausted and fearful. Coming out into the Walmart parking lot, I witnessed a magnificent sunset that began to change right before my eyes. This is the first of four photos I took that evening of a sunset that reminded me always to look up and have hope…
Perfect happiness is a beautiful sunset, the giggle of a grandchild, the first snowfall. It’s the little things that make happy moments, not the grand events. Joy comes in sips, not gulps. (Sharon Draper)

What a lovely sunset.
