Pertinacious Metanoia

Last Sunday, I was on my way home, having gone downtown to meet Mom for some dinner and a walk around Millennium; she had been in town visiting with her best friend.

On the way home, we had a brief rainstorm followed by the sun coming out in full regalia quite quickly. Hopeful, I looked around, and sure enough:

Not only was it fantastic to see a rainbow, but what also was pretty amazing was how everyone around me was just getting a kick out of seeing a rainbow. I kind of understand why it’s the Biblical expression for hope and a new beginning — everyone on the street was walking more chipperly.

Pretty cool.
