Looking up at the pink sky, I was overwhelmed by how beautiful the evening was and how genuinely happy I felt to be alive, a feeling that’s been hard to come by the past few years. As I paused at a stoplight though, anxiously checking for the tenth time that my iPhone wasn’t about to fall out of my jumpsuit pocket, another voice came over my mind airwaves to say, “How do you know this feeling is going to last?
