no bikes found today

Catch it while you can. Wow! The rain came pouring down. A break in the rain brought an amazing double rainbow, triple at some points. Spectacular. What can really be said about a rainbow after a downpour at the height of spring, flowers blooming all around? No sooner had I reveled in its magnificence, pulled Eva out into the still pouring rain, run back in to retrieve my camera, taken a picture, run back inside and out again, the rainbow was gone. Not a trace to be found. Catch it while you can. It is times like these that I marvel at being here at all.

We bought paints today while we were out looking for a bike for Samuel. Eva has been busy with them since we returned.

I am reading Nine Kinds of Naked by Tony Vigorito and am loving his story of synchronicity. Here's something- "the Big Bang is a beatific, radiant requiem of rapture that yodels the illusion of all-that-is only so that it may rediscover itself and continue to love." Rain, sunshine, rainbow, over and over, again and again. Yes! In the story one of the characters realizes that destiny is "inviting" us rather than "inevitable" and that we use our free will to follow what we love which then takes us to our destiny. I see it as an invitation to live our lives through love...
