For me, the skyline has changed.

For me, the skyline has changed.

When I drive back into the city after a long day out, I strain to see the skyline a few miles ahead. Looking to the horizon, my eyes trace the steady lights from the now familiar buildings that tower in the darkness--always facing the same direction they were facing when I left them last. Always in the same order. I'm able to spot the skyline off in the distance, but when I see it I don't feel the same way I used to. The skyline isn't exhilarating anymore.

Now, it's comforting.
