“Every sunset is an opportunity to reset. Every sunrise begins with new eyes.”

Since I was a child, I have always been fascinated by Dawns and Sunsets: Dawns as the excitement for a new day and Sunset for the ending of the “visible day” as we would be entering the dark moment afterwards.
I am going to share some pictures here of Sunsets as I am still gathering the ones about Dawns :D
When on vacation at the University, Sunset has always been a moment where we all thought of the parties incoming during the night. While now, it’s more something like acknowledging what I have done through the day, making a sort of balance-sheet of the day.
The sunset above is from the last day me and Mary were in Portugal in January last year. Here were were in Cabo da Raso, an amazing place close to Cabo da Roca, a magical area, that is the “Most Western” of Europe.
I still remember that while I was totally hypnotized by the sunset, a huge wave covered above the knees (much unexpectedly :D )

Here instead, we were in Spain, Torrox Beach last summer. This was the view from the small flat we rented there to stay some days.

While here, we were (last year, heading back from Spain) in Montpellier, France.
While here, a magic sunset in Sardinia, where me and Mary went a few years ago with a couple of friends. Here we were on a hill, headed towards a typical restaurant where we ate typical meat (porceddu), and typical first dishes.

While here, was our marriage (September last year), in Reggio Emilia. Cheering at our marriage at the sunset.
Every place I go, I always try to admire one full sunset. Every place has a different energy and is bringing different emotions within.
In some place I could feel humbleness and introspection while in other romanticism and love. In other, I could feel huge gratitude for being alive, healthy, surrounded by nice people with a lot of opportunities in my life.
Besides, Admiring Dawn and Sunsets in the same place gives me the sensation of closing a circle, enjoying every moment of light, of different light and energy throughout the day. Different light, different energies, different emotions, different feelings.
I like remembering that aside our job, all the tech devices, some bad feelings we may carry towards each other, we are all humans and we are here on the Earth in this historical moment to live our best life, evolving and loving each other.
Luckily Nature can reminds this every time we listen to her.
