I often wonder -- if you're surrounded by too much beauty, would their value diminish in your eyes? If you see something amazing everyday, would it cease to stir your heart?
Maybe it is true. Although I'm certain that I haven't seen too much of the world's wonder to make me jaded thus. A rainbow - a common sight to many - sets my spirit soaring. I was told Hawaiians have the priviledge of rainbow-gazing everyday due to a perfect concoction in weather conditions. Seeing a grown woman causing a major racket onboard the MRT at the mere sight of a full rainbow would be amusing for them indeed. A full rainbow is what I call a horizon-to-horizon rainbow -- also known as the carebear rainbow. Not the half-hearted, oblong-shaped ones we get so often here in Singapore (I also call these "Plaster" rainbows).
This website features some amazing rainbow photography. What the photographer has captured here is a double-rainbow. I can only hope to see one someday!
I felt very assured that I really haven't lost my sense of wonder. Some people just think I'm Sua-Ku, but I beg to differ! It's truly a blessing to be able to enjoy simple pleasures in life.
