This is Huge.

Everything Else

One evening a few weeks ago, while running some errands around Albany, something amazing caught my eye. So amazing, in fact, that I couldn’t help but pull off the road to get a better look. Suddenly there it was, hovering above a distant Lum Yuen Chinese restaurant and a handful of car dealerships: A Double. Complete. Rainbow. It was HUGE! And stunning. And for a second there—as I hopped out of the car to point my little low-res camera phone toward the sky—it all felt quite surreal. Interrupted by a remarkable display of Divine skywriting, I was left speechless.

But then I drove off. Taco Bell was calling, and the busyness of life kicked in again. I practically forgot about the whole thing until coming across this completely awkward video today. I gotta say, my reaction to the rainbow wasn’t quite as dramatic as that guy’s. But I do sympathize with him.

Here’s the photo I took. Um, make that three photos, all stitched together and trying their best to do justice to what I saw that day. Like I said, it was huge. And in more than one way.

Rainbows rock! It’s a wonderful thing to make yourself stop and pay attention to the little bits of magic sprinkled in amongst the busyness of the day.
