"Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain..." - Frankie Beverly and Maze
Today's weather in Athens finally inspired me to blog. I know, I know and I am smh at myself too! This will be a short post, because sometimes brevity is best.
I exited the dining hall only to discover that is was raining. It really caught me by surprise, because I had been sitting by the window during my meal and as I was reading through articles, enjoying the sunshine and beauty of the day. So, stepping out into rain was the last thing that I expected. Well, actually the last thing I expected was stepping out into a coalition of sunshine and rain.
As, I drove home, I marveled at the rainbow that this juxtaposition had created. I can't tell you the last time I have seen a rainbow, and I had forgotten how beautiful they could be. They are truly majestic indeed.
I always think of rainbows occurring after a storm, but today I am reminded that something beautiful can be produced even in the midst of turmoil.
Perhaps it's a reminder that the languor in my life is temporary.
