BAM! POW! Take that, Melancholy Mary!As usual, inspiration was right under my nose. I owe it to that Bollywood video, however, for initially lifting me out of my funk. Then as I was driving home today--another incredible sunset! Crimson- and ocre-tinged cloud puffs floating across a sky of deepening blue.
Which reminded me of last night's sunset. Difficult to explain, but the entire sky seemed afire. And when I turned around, I saw the most amazing rainbow I have ever seen. Seriously. You could see both ends; the colors--red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet--were so vivid and crisp. And it was so freakin' BIG!
I saw this on my way to exercise class, some combo of pilates and aerobics that makes me realize I really have no rhythm and need to turn in my queer card. I worried about that instead of meditating on the beauty of the sunset and the rainbow.
Which drives home the point that our world is what we think it is. If we think deep dark despair, we get it. And if we look beyond that to something more hopeful, then we get hope. Sounds Pollyanna, but it's true.
