May 19

I'm not entirely sure why, but I was rather cranky today. I could probably come up with a number of excuses if I tried but none of them really matter because the bottom line is that I felt off. Overcast. Cloudy. Like the weather.

But then early this evening, the sun finally came out just as the clouds let loose with a downpour. I watched the raindrops glisten as they fell from the sky and then skittered to the front of the house to see if there was a rainbow. And when I did, I saw the brightest, most vibrant one I'd seen in some time.

It was a nice reminder that beauty can be found at unexpected times and in unexpected places.
