Rainbow

Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 12 July 2008 in Landscape & Rural.

I have not seen such a beautiful rainbow for a very long time. Too bad i didnt bring my camera,handphone camera sure didnt do the rainbow justice.

Talking about rainbow,I remembered my very difficult Professor in Uni gave a very difficult topic for us to do for our assignment. We were supposed to do a report on the significance of rainbow in Chinese Mythology. Information on it was far and between, but i was surprised to read that in Chinese mythology, rainbows appear when the Chinese gods are having sexual relations. Well, i hope the info is not too provocative for you.FYI:)

However, the Bible states that rainbow is the sign of God's covenant that He will never destroy the world again in the manner like the Great Flood.

Gorgeous! Outside my church eh ;) Yes, a wonderful sign indeed. It makes me feel so happy to see this. Thanks for sharing! Perhaps God let you see it and photograph it so that I would be assured of His love. Thanks Babe! Feeling better already....

@Sue: I am glad it made you happy.I wish you saw the rainbow yourself,it was big, fat ,clear and very pretty. It was as if God was reminding us of His faithfulness and that He will make good HIs promises to His children:)

That you caught this on a simple camera makes it all the more enjoyable . . rainbows are so ethereal that it seems very suitable!

nice rainbow.

i'm not sure how much the silk products cost when i was in Beijing but i reckon it aint too expensive at Silk Market because you can haggle for prices. If you do go, let me know, I can let you know some places of interest.

@Tricia: sure!But i'd rather have the processed silk than this raw ones,wont know what to do with them,lol
