Rainbow of a Different Color

When you see a rainbow in the free world, you appreciate its beauty. When a prisoner sees a rainbow, it softens her heart and chases away all her blues. In the duration of the rainbow's stay, the prisoner is completely free.

There was a rainbow tonight so big that it made all the electric fences surrounding the prison disappear.

The promise of rain excited me as I did my yoga on the yard this morning. Though the sun was obscured by the thick and fluffy off-white cotton-ball clouds, the ten rounds of sun salutation were enough to warm up my body.

Just two days ago the overhearing heat was keeping me tossing & turning at night. Today it was raining and hailing. I love the cleansing smell of rain.

The sudden change of weather made me lazy. I took a shower after the morning workout and laid down on my bed and finished reading Life of Pi. Then I slept for two undisturbed hours.

I'm ready to embrace the change of season.
