Why are some of us always thrilled and quietly delighted at the sight of sunset or sunrise, or so i assume? Undoubtedly it has to do with the beauty of such a sight, which alone is enough to awe us. I guess its transience is just as important a factor that contributes to its beauty. Not everyone gets to see the sun rise from the horizon everyday, and even when one sees it, it is only for a specifically short period of time. That makes it all the more a precious experience.
