The Rainbows in my life

The iffy fall weather means that physically there are lots of rainbows (yesterday alone – 4 in various spots as I drove through the city).

But there are also the emotional ones:

• My two sons
• My brother and sister - their spouses
• My younger son’s girlfriend
• My housemate
• My innumerable (o.k. I can actually number them, but I have been to richly blessed that I prefer the innumerable label) female friends, those I’ve known a life-time, those I’ve known for 40 years, those I’ve known for only a few, even those new friends. They all have their roles in my life; they all bring me something positive.
• The male friends who have treated me exactly the same after (my husband’s death) as before.
• Concerts, museums
• Magazines, good books (and sometimes even the indifferent ones)
• Good meals whether in a restaurant or at friends
• TV series – DVDs that make me laugh
• A house and enough to live on: blessed more than many in this world

And the list is not exhaustive, nor did I try and remember everyone.

I hope that everyone has at least a few rainbows in their lives. Feel free to borrow the one below if needs be!
