There’s all kinds of sayings that might would apply… but I’ll simply say that you can find beauty anywhere, if you just look for it. Sometimes it’s right in your face. Yesterday after a storm had passed, the setting sun shinned through under the cloud cover and gave everyone a spectacular sight… a double rainbow. Even more impressive, because I’ve never seen it before, was the double rainbow with lightening from the passing storm behind it.
Now it could be that getting old has effected my memory, and it’s something that I actually have seen before… but never the less, I got to enjoy it as if it was for the first time, and that was plenty good enough for me. The storm had passed, the breeze was cooling, and the view of the sky was oddly strange yet beautiful. Everywhere you looked was completely different, the lighting, the colors, the clouds… yep very unique. One guest commented as he passed that he was glad we were not in Kansas… yellow sky with these clouds only means one thing… tornados. I guess I could have lived without that bit of information… but when we are in Kansas, it just might become handy to know. Nature may change the outcome of our day with some rain, and maybe a little anxiety over the severity of the storm… but then gives us a show… ya just have to look for and appreciate the beauty in everything. These photos really can’t do justice to the scale and beauty of it all… so you’ll just have to take my word for it… it was really spectacular.
Despite the fact that many people walked by, oblivious to the show until I pointed it out to them. Guess we all have our own perspective on things that bring a sense of wonderment to mind. Guess it’s all in what you come to appreciate. My thanks to mother nature for the show. BTW… that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow… it’s the joy you feel in your heart and the awesomeness of natures beauty. So keep looking up and around… simple beauty is everywhere. It’s all in what you make if it. Enjoy.
Some of these were not my actual photos… I was working and didn’t have my camera with me… had to borrow some for the story.
