Chasing Rainbows


I am a dreamer. I believe in the power of love to create a better world.  I believe in being good and kind.  I love the wonders of the world...lighthouses, hot air balloons, sunsets, the ocean....and rainbows.  Today we chased a rainbow.  We followed it to where we could get out in the rain and take photos of a beautiful rainbow.   I am  not sure why, but rainbows have always been a source of hope for me.  When I am tired and feeling hopeless...rainbows have always signified the promise of better things to come.

In fact, tonight I was feeling exactly that way....exhausted and in need of some inspiration and motivation.  And there was that rainbow that we went chasing.....and it was so worth it....to stand there in the rain and behold it's beautiful magnificence.  I am thankful for that rainbow...and the time spent chasing it and enjoying it.  It made me think about all that is beautiful and colorful in my life.  I believe that it is bringing a pot of gold at it's end....and tomorrow will hold treasures that we had never imagined.

“Gratitude is the real treasure God wants us to find, because it isn't the pot of gold but the rainbow that colors our world.”
