I Will Always Look For Rainbows
I was up early this morning. A combination of very busy (and not altogether pleasant) dreams, and a poorly dog brought me to the land of the living over an hour before I usually wake up.
CHANGEABLE
It was cold and grey outside; a complete contrast to the weather we’ve had lately, and it struck me how changeable things are. The weather forecast never seems to stay the same for more than about six hours (often differing depending on which website I choose to look at), and sometimes, within the space of an hour, we can have a combination of cloud, rain, and sunshine.
In a way, it made me think about the human psyche, and how our moods fluctuate from one moment to the next. One minute, we’re up on cloud 9, and the next, it’s like disaster has struck and we’ve hit rock bottom. At least, that’s what it’s like for me. .
WITHOUT DARK, THERE CAN BE NO LIGHT
The thing is, I often curse the low moments, and pray to only have the happy ones, but there is a quote I love, which always reminds me of why the bad times come:
“The soul can have no rainbows, unless the eyes have shed some tears”
