At the edges of the world it is always twilight; perpetual, set up and sundown. There are no edges at the end of the world. There is nothing to fall off of and nothing to fall into. The end of every day here is the beginning of every day there. We are insects on the outside of a giant spinning ball with a heat lamp on one side.

People-set
It is mind altering to think that, every second of every day, the sun is simultaneously rising and setting, somewhere in the world. By degrees, there are 360 sunsets and sunrises per day. By human life, there are 7.8 billion sun ups and sun downs each day. Through all of these, the sun is stationary and we get up and lay down. Maybe we should call the ends of days, people-rise and people-set?

Sun Flag
The sequential bands of light and dark are the appeal for me in this image. The dark bands of clouds at the top, the dark lines of the distant horizon, the light band of water in the center, the dark band at the edge of the shore, and the band of wet mud at the bottom come together to remind me of a stratified flag.

Sky Ablaze
The energy of the sun is my thoughts, my body, my food, my clothing and even my car, so I understand why it was and is worshipped by so many. When absent for an extended period, my live is profoundly impacted by negativity. I become numb and no longer respond positivity to the world as is. The sun helps me to figuratively and physically navigate life.
