Bike to Work Month - Day 15 - Looking Left and Right

While the title is certainly something you want to do continually to keep an eye on traffic, that's not what I'm referring to in today's post.

As I rode to work this morning I glanced to my right, the West and was struck by a view of ominous storm clouds just beyond the river.

I glanced to my left, the East and my view was greeted by a beautiful sunrise against clear skies.

The two views were a dichotomy of sorts. The direction of my gaze conjured within me two totally different and opposing perspectives, one of gloom and one of hope. I can't control the weather, but upon which I rest my eyes is a choice totally mine.
