Daylight Savings Time

Growing up in central Indiana I didn't have to deal with Daylight Savings Time until just a few years ago. It's definitely taken some getting used to and I'm not going to lie and say that I've liked it. But, whenever I find myself cursing something or using the non-productive, negative phrase "I hate (fill in the blank)" I stop myself and rethink it... "what about this thing can I be grateful for?" There is always something.

The other night as I was walking through campus around 8pm I looked around and noticed that the earth was still glowing with the golden remnants of sunlight at the end of the day. A week ago, at that same hour, I would have been shaded in darkness, the sun long gone.

There's an extra hour of sunlight! No more sketchy 8pm walks in the dark for the next few months!! Thanks DST!
