Some Days Are a Thousand Years

Some days start out with anxious suspense and end with glad tidings

Some days you hear both groaning and rejoicing

Some days remind you how puny you are, vis-à-vis the grandeur of the Almighty

Some days you hear decibels of sound that will reecho year after year

Some days are both an end and a beginning

Some days give you a new identity that will last your lifetime

Some days alter your trajectory but open up new vistas of possibilities and opportunities
Some days are simply serendipitous
Some days you receive a bundle of joy
 Some days are a thousand years
 June 23 was all that for me — six years ago
