I sat in the chair with my arms over my head and my legs on the footrest. In just minutes I fell asleep, hastened by the full-body soreness of a day of lifting rocks.
It was a deep sleep that lasted only a few minutes but left me feeling like a new person (although the soreness persisted). And as I woke, I opened my eyes and saw you across the room in the yellow glow of the lamp reading something on your laptop.
I saw you reading and smiling as you sat that golden light, and I thanked the world for this life at this moment in this place with you.
