Painting Rainbows

From the grotesque pictures of the previous post, let's move on to something more decent; rainbows!


Painting Rainbows




Do you remember having to colour rainbows when we are in kindergarten or memorizing the colours of a rainbow in our years at primary school? If you have, then i bet you know what a rainbow is.





Well, rainbows are like the paths we traverse in life. The complete picture of a rainbow is obscure until we finish our walk on earth and breathe goodbye. The colours of a rainbow represent different layers of our lives; be it hardships, defining moments, tragic occurrences, and happy situations. There's no escape from each of these and what's painted cannot be reconstructed. We can never change the colours of a rainbow once it appears, unless of course, it fades, be it our short-term memory or our choices in selecting not to remember certain events. If your rainbow is beautiful, be contented and remain as who you are. You may even help somebody in their process of painting their rainbows! You'll never know if you will need their help in painting yours in the future. However, if your rainbow is tainted, don't worry, there's still time to paint the rainbow ahead of you. Do not hesitate to improvise if necessary and don't turn back to dwell at the rainbow that's been painted for too long. Time waits for no man.


Move on!



Do you know that the complete view of a rainbow is supposed to be a circle, not a semicircle?
