Rainbow north of Spokane, Washington
As a child, I was often told that a rainbow was symbolic of an eternal promise. My feeling about it is that rainbows remind us of the great power of the weather and our atmosphere. And also the strength we hold within ourselves. They give us the opportunity to stop for a moment and step into the feeling of awe that inspires us to be the best we can be in any given moment.
During a recent trip to eastern Washington where the weather had been extremely dry with a number of local forest fires, a great blessing came in the form of a small rain storm which left this beautifully vivid rainbow. It felt magical, refreshing and fulfilling.
It was not only a blessing to be in Washington with family and enjoying the companionship of a common goal, but refreshing to see our lives move forward and at the same time have an opportunity to reflect on where we have come from and why we share common gratitude for being one as family.
Somewhere in the beauty of this photograph, I hope you will feel a sense of inspiration as well and also a promise that nothing lasts forever and yet, rainbows reoccur often. And most importantly, they remind us that there is more to life than what we see on the surface.
Be well! Be happy! Be loved! And have a great week ahead!
