Calm Sunrise

"We can only appreciate the miracle of a sunrise if we have waited in the darkness" ~ Anonymous
This is one of my favorite photos of this year, particularly with the recent devastating storm. Right now friends from the Gulf are inundated with darkness both literally and in their hearts and minds. They have lost loved ones, their jobs and their homes. It's hard for them to grasp what has happened and even more difficult to see beyond the destruction to tomorrow. It will take time; it will take much effort by everyone, but the people will rebound. After the storm comes a calm, after the darkness comes the sunrise.
