Here Comes (and goes) the Sun

Watching a dramatic sunrise or sunset, it’s easy to see how so many cultures through history were sun worshippers. The sun profoundly impacted everyone’s lives every day, in addition to the incredible beauty it provided at each end of those days.

And the question rages on- Which is better- sunrises or sunsets?
