Arc-en-ciel. Regenboog. Rainbow.

Have you ever been able to witness the breath taking sight of a Rainbow? Maybe not even the entire spectrum, but even a glimpse of one...

I have seen them multiple times throughout my lifetime. But yesterday, I was three of them. Two of them were a double rainbow. Lately, a lot of things have been really noticed by me. I have been more open to the world and more enthused by nature and the world of art. Lately, everything to me has had a meaning behind it, and yesterday, these rainbows symbolised promises.


The First rainbow Brad and I saw was huge. We could only see the bottoms of it because the top went right up into the grey rainy clouds. Brad thought I was crazy to be taking so many pictures of this ancient symbol, but, to me this was a promise. A promise that there would never be another rain identical to the one we had just witnessed. There would never be a rain fall with the same amount of rain drops, the same amount of rain. Every other rainfall on this earth would be different from this one.

That just amazed me.



Then, little than a half hour later, Brad and I saw yet another rainbow. But. This one took my breath away. A Double Rainbow (you can kinda see it in the picture)....

This got my brain thinking. If God gave a rainbow as a promise to never provide a flood like the recent one again. The Rainbow is a symbol of God's faithfulness and Mercy to us. So what does a double rainbow mean? or does it mean the same thing?

All I know is that I can now look back at these three rainbows I saw yesterday and remember the amazing rays I was able to witness. Rainbows have now taken the place of the "northern" lights from me and replaced them for first place on my "awe" list.

These rainbows really had me thinking and "ooing and aweing" the whole trip home last night. I was so glad to spend the trip with my husband and to be able to share this amazing adventure with him. I have noticed that we are able to talk about nature and awe inspiring events alot easier than we were 3 years ago, for this I am so glad. <3
