Waiting for the Sun

Sunset in Northfield, MN. May 2011

“The pages are still blank, but there is a miraculous feeling of the words being there, written in invisible ink and clamoring to become visible.” Vladimir Nabokov

It has been raining for nearly a week. Perhaps in a moment of hopefulness, I sat by the window in the library today, hoping that the sun would peak out for a moment and I might smile in its light. It did. Sometimes life is just that good, one asks and receives. For times when I am waiting, I like to reflect on the Nabokov quote above.
