16th Aug '13
I have always been the kind of person who loves the rain. No matter how many hours i have to spend in traffic jams or how dirty my car gets, i love rains. It is not the rain that causes the traffic jams, it's us. And the potholes on the roads are created because of the poor quality of roads and traffic jams, not the rain.
So, yes, i love it when it rains bringing respite from the heat. I can spend hours looking at the drops of water falling from the sky. But today it's not about the rain, it is about the rainbow. Going forward with the quotation, "If you want to see the rainbow, you got to put up with the rain."
While returning from a family gathering, driving on the Yamuna Expressway, it continuously rained during our 3 hour drive. I just enjoyed watching the different shades of clouds and the water droplets on my window. None of us was complaining as every direction we looked in, we saw a refreshing site.
Only 10 minutes were left in our journey and we saw a faint rainbow, incomplete yet beautiful. We stopped the car and took a photograph, just happy to see a rainbow after a very long time. Next up on entering our area we saw 2 rainbows, both incomplete. Nevertheless, we stopped the car and took another picture, happier to see 2 rainbows, which is a rare site.
We reached home, safe and sound, tired by the journey. Just as we entered and saw out of the balcony, there was the brightest rainbow we had ever seen. From where we saw it it was half. It was beautiful. Almost as if someone had painted it on the sky or the Gods themselves were throwing a bright, colorful light into the sky. We were completely mesmerized by it.
But no, that was not it. As we entered into the other balcony we saw the complete rainbow, not one but two. The sight was unforgettable. Two complete rainbows right before our eyes. Now we felt truly blessed to see that sight.
Contemplating to the whole event i think we were happy enough to see the rainbow when it showed for the first time. Half, a little faded but beautiful in its own self. The next view was of 2 rainbows, even more attractive and making us happier. But it did not stop there.
What made us feel truly blessed was 2 complete rainbows. It was as if the God had made them Himself to be shown to us. To tell us that we deserve so much more.
We get what we want and we are satisfied and happy. Not knowing that God has bigger plans for us. He wants us to experience so much more. Not only to be happy but to feel truly blessed. It is us who try playing it safe and stop at what makes us happy.
It is within our destiny to get the best. We just have to try a little harder, be a little more patient and believe in God a little more, and He will himself gift us with the most beautiful sights. He will surprise us with what he has to offer. Only we need to keep our eyes open and wish for a little more...
