I was driving around town after work a couple of days ago, in the throes of rush hour, frustrated by the traffic and making a mental "to do" list for when I got home, including wondering if I could get a walk in before the rain started and wondering if I would die of starvation if I went for a walk before eating (hey it could totally happen). There were cars everywhere, and I found myself wondering if everyone had traveled great distances to arrive at this precise point and time just to thwart my efforts to run errands before the monsoon started. Well, ok, I didn't actually KNOW there would be a monsoon, but the clouds looked pretty menacing.... Anyway, as I was spinning all sorts of stories in my head about my situation, I looked up and spotted a faint rainbow that spanned the storm clouds above me. In an instant I was awed and grateful for a sight so lovely, and glad that the rush hour traffic had allowed me to be at that precise point and time to see it.
