Rainbows

I stood in the rain today, I had to go outside to watch the beautiful rain fall. It was one of those gentle rains, Sun was shining, Clouds in the west were dark and clouds in the east were light. In those eastern clouds were the inevitable rainbow.

You may be able to see the double rainbow, top one is very light but definitely there.

I know, I know I seem to write about these a lot. Fact is I love rainbows. They speak to my spirit, my heart, my very being.

They say, " Tomorrow is a better day. I promise you this."

So often when I see something beautiful, as the rainbow, the rain falling gently, the trees just beginning to bloom, the flowers in bloom, a beautiful bird nest. I want to share it.

More often than not, David is indisposed and can't join me. (tonight he was in the shower).

Today as I was standing in the rain, (feet were getting wet, but it was one of those lovely rains you can walk in) at the edge of the house, I thought, "Who would I share this with if he were unavailable?"

Answer is hard to find. I just do not know. He is the one I want beside me. Someone to share A gift, a gift of just a moment of something wonderful.

Rainbows come and go so fast, as life does, As each of our little ones do.

When I think of all I missed when my babies were babies, and marveled at the wonderful adults they grew into, I think how time went too fast.

David and I did share in these wonderful times. I think of how many people are unaware of these blessed moments. I wonder "Did I take enough in to store in my memories?" I think so, I recall all the laughter the tears, the trials. I think of how much I loved them and still do.

Often we want to take back the bitter words, the hurt we caused but you can not live with regrets, you live with the future and make the most of each moment left.

We all have these moments, and we must remember these Moments are as fleeting as the rainbow in the Eastern Sky.

Cherish each one, cherish each rainbow, cherish each promise we are given and know tomorrow Life begins anew.
