Smile #3

Aside from bright and sunny weather, any other weather condition will shut down Charlotte causing traffic to be congested 10x worse.  Today is one of those lucky days.  On my way home, traffic came to a halt as the rain began to drizzle.  Annoyed and frustrated as always, I looked up and saw a beautiful rainbow radiating across the gloomy sky. 

Immediately, a smile spread across my face.  I remembered sitting in class during a gloomy day in Austria when Dr.Wood called out there is a double rainbow outside.  Everyone started snapping photos and ten minutes later, posts after posts of double rainbow run down my Newsfeed.  :)

One lucky moment captured on camera
Rainbow lasts only a few moments before vanishing.  It reminds of the quote - "不一定要天長地久,才值得你曾經擁有" - It doesn't mean it wasn't worth your while just because it didn't last forever.   

During these moments, I feel especially thankful to have all the experiences I had so far in life - to have cross paths with new and old friends and to experience the world beyond my hometown.  

What moments are you so glad it happened, regardless of how long lasted?
