Often times rainbows are associated with things like unicorns, fairies or leprechauns. But unlike these mythical creatures, rainbows are a REAL thing. I seem to forget that from time to time because every time I see one, I am amazed all over again.

Something about the combination of colors in the sky never ceases to amaze me. Maybe it's because when I see a rainbow, I am reminded that not everything in this world is so terrible. I forget about the political garbage, how many pounds I'm trying to lose, or that jerk that cut me off in traffic, and I just appreciate what I have around me in the moment.

Sadly, we don't do this often enough. We are so caught up in the little things in life, we forget about the big picture. We are here, on this amazing earth, and we should enjoy it while we can. So instead of worrying about how many likes you get on an Instagram picture, take a second and look around and see the the wonderful things this world has to offer.
