Windows

If you think windows are not important, try living without one.

Each morning I go to work before sunrise. I don't get to see much of the sun, other than sometimes a pinkish sky. Then I go in to my office and settle in for the at least 8 hour day. There are no windows nor doors that let the sunshine in near me. The only time I can maybe "escape" is if I go to the front office and sit at the lunch table with negative individuals and pretend to grade papers so I can see the light.

Throughout the day I encounter issues and drama that drain me emotionally and mentally and there's no "escape" for that. It's not like I can look out a window at "leisure". At the end of the day I go to night school, so don't even get to catch a sunset either.

Why are we so cruel to ourselves and deprive our lives of sunlight? Even inmates, people who are not good for society have the right to breath fresh air at least one hour a day.
