My little rainbow.

In a world seemingly black and white,
we can experience moments of color.
One simple moment.
One world changed.
Every one of us can crunch the numbers.
24 hours in a day
7 days in a week
4 weeks in a month
12 months in a year
Yet it is one of 31,536,000 moments in a year that defines a future.

These moments are colors, bleeding into every aspect of life.

A moment of red is a moment impossible to take back.  Dominance, temper and power.  A little red provides structure, while a life filled with it will never satisfy. 
A moment of orange is spontaneity.  Last minute adventures, and kisses in the rain.  Orange is unpredictable, bright, and loud.  The stories we'll laugh over and share for years to come.
A moment of yellow is joy.  A moment of sunshine, and warmth.  A moment remembered when the rain seems never-ending.  Moments of yellow are moments meant to be shared, with love.
Green is strength.  It's constant, soothing, the steady growth of grass and the calm swaying of the leaves on the trees.  Green is the world around us we can never seem to to connect to.
A moment of blue is a moment of clarity, peace, and tranquility.  It's the water we thirst for, and the sky on a beautiful day.  These moments hold the answers we look for.
Purple is wisdom and determination.  It is passion, beauty, and grace.  A moment of purple a moment of nobility, meant to change the world.

I want the whole rainbow.  
Peace.  Spontaneity.  Strength.  Joy.  Power.  Wisdom.  Justice.
...Maybe I'll even find the pot of gold at the end?
I may find Oz.
I might even finally realize that the other end of the rainbow is simply that.
