The reminder that I live in a congested city is everywhere. Not like I am complaining. I don't think I can handle a place where there's any less going on. Instead of seeing it for all the smog, the traffic, and the overpopulation here, I appreciate it for its energy and liveliness. Even as I steal a glimpse of the beautiful Los Angeles sunset, the dominate view is composed of powerlines and apartment buildings. They powerlines and tops of buildings create designs against the sky that are beautiful in their own way. The sunset becomes the backdrop highlighting urban living.
