The alarm went off. “Good morning! The time is 4am. Sunrise will be at 5:52am.”
I considered going back to sleep, but one thought got me moving.
"Life. Precious life. And it’s up to me to preserve it."

For You Do Not Know What Hour
The alarm on my phone went off at 4am. “Good morning! It’s time to wake up. It is June 15th, and the time is 4am. Sunrise today will be at 5:52am. The weather today will be partly cloudy, with a high of 95 degrees.” I really hate summers. The summer solstice is my most prized holy day. The summer solstice is when the days stop getting longer and start getting shorter again. Shorter days means later sunrise. Later sunrise means I get to sleep later. But maybe I’m getting ahead of myself.
