By way of illustration, I offer Friday at the beach. I woke up to a rain-filled forecast. However, since at dawn, the forecast projected the likelihood of rain at 50%, I figured I would only get rained on - at worst - half the time.
But I digress.
Off I went into the heat and humidity that Jersey is in July. Having headed south into Spring Lake on 3rd Avenue, I did not make it out to the water until I started heading north towards home. There, for just a moment, I saw the sun trying to fight its way into the early morning sky, which was beautiful.
As it always is.
As it turns out, Friday was a day when the sun lost the battle. Shortly after I completed my run, it ceded the sky to the clouds and, every now and again thereafter, rain.
A reminder to me that when offered a glimpse, no matter how brief, of something beautiful, take it.
