August Happiness Challenge, Day 16

 



As usual, there were many moments of happiness to choose from today, but the one I've decided to share didn't take place until around 8:00 this evening. 

After another birthday dinner with my mom and stepdad, Tim and I stopped at Walmart on our way home. While we were inside there was a very intense, but brief, rain storm. When we exited the store I heard the woman behind me say "Rainbow!" Sure enough, when I looked over in the direction the storm was heading there was a gorgeous rainbow with very vivid colors. I think it was the first time I've ever seen the purple in a rainbow. It was breathtaking against the black clouds. It lasted quite a while, too.

The rainbow after the storm, a symbol of God's promise to mankind, reminded me of His love for us...and that made me very happy, indeed.

  1. That is a beautiful rainbow! The last one I saw was double and it had purple, but not as vivid as yours!

It's Nearly Here

  As I sit here in the glow of the Christmas tree lights, I'm forced to wonder if we will be celebrating Christmas at all. I am on track...
