No matter how many times we see them, we are still mesmerized by these meteorological phenomena!
You know what I mean? Those “check out the rainbow” moments while driving or looking out the window. If you’re lucky, you’ll even get to see a coveted “double rainbow” like two enveloping tortilla chips in the bowl at a Chili’s restaurant!
But it’s a simple explanation as to where rainbows come from. As long as you’re in between the light source (sun) and the water droplets (rain), you’re bound to check out Nature’s brushstroke of beauty.
Here’s the problem… sometimes we want the rainbow… but without the rain. We want to see the beauty, without knowing that it comes at the cost of drenching and soaking something else.
In life, sometimes you are surrounded by nothing better than sogginess and your dreams and aspirations getting waterlogged. In those moments, you simply need to take a step back and get between the ‘light’ and the rain. When you do that properly, you’ll start to see the beauty in the flood; the splendour found in the backdrop of the mist.
Has that happened to you? Have you ever seen where it took an unexpected ‘shower’ to reveal something greater and more rewarding in your life? Let me know your thoughts on this.
At least that’s how I see it,
