Looking east at sunset

Maxfield Parrish was an early 20th century painter known for his rich colors and stylized neoclassical compositions, many of them set at “golden hour” with backgrounds of billowing cumulus clouds. I mention him because we had that type of sky yesterday evening.

We tend to watch the western sky at sunset, but sometimes the show is in the opposite direction. Life can be like that too, with our attention on one thing (often on something others say we should concentrate on) while oblivious to other possibilities.
