Rainbow

A rainbow happens when the 'white light' of the sun hits the little drops of water in the air and then get dispersed into the component frequencies/colours. The each drop of water acts as a prism and bends the light at just the right angle that causes each component colour of white light to be slowed down to a different extent due to their different wavelengths.
It is actually incredible when you think about the fact that out of what we perceive as white light, comes forth the red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet... And isn't it just interesting that these also represent the colours of our 7 chakras? So we are literally beings of light with the heavier colours at the base and lighter ones towards the top... The lower chakras have a lower frequency and this increases till we reach our crown chakra.
When we think about colours, we don't usually think of them as what they are at the core...energy vibrating at a specific frequency!! We just see the colours around us and take these for granted. Actually, we don't think about it. We see colours; we know no different.
So, back to the rainbow...
When we hit an obstacle in life, perhaps we could simply alter our perception and see these as a prism that simply brings our colours out. I will come back to this later. Bye for now...
