A Gentle Unfolding

Woke before sunrise, the world still hushed. Biked up winding roads to Hawk Hill, chasing the quiet promise of morning. The air was cold, the fog thick — until it parted just enough to reveal the Golden Gate Bridge, its silhouette slicing through the mist like a dream. The sky blushed in soft hues as the sun began to rise, casting gold over steel. No traffic, no chatter, just breath and stillness. A moment suspended in time, where effort met awe. Some scenes are too pure to belong to the day. This one, wrapped in fog and light, became a core memory.
