Appreciating Rain

I'm not really having a great day. I had to get up very early this morning to bring S. to the airport (yes, he's left me for England...again!) It was cold and dark, sleety and wet. I'm pretty sensitive to the weather in the best of times, but standing at Schiphol airport watching my heart going to passport control at 5:30 in the morning is certain to ensure a certain melancholy for the rest of the day.


Yet later on in the morning, while walking home from the shops, the heavens decided to give me the prettiest anti-depressant in nature, and I can't help sharing it with you:


I haven't stopped smiling since.
Remember: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain.
