Rainbow on the ocean's horizon

Stand on the edge of the planet long enough and it'll only be a matter of time before magic happens.

Maybe it'll happen in the sky. Or on the water. Or both.

But it'll probably take your breath away. And make you feel humbled. Or both.

And you'll probably think about the forces and laws that make stuff like this happen. And the fact that even though they can all be explained by science, they remain wondrous.

Or at least they should.

Because we all deserve to feel chills down our spine. Or that feeling we get in our face when a smile begins to spread from deep inside. Or both.

It just so happens that this moment, where countless atmospheric factors aligned to paint a perfectly angled rainbow on a cloud-spattered horizon, played out in full view of the beach we coincidentally were on.

But it can play out anywhere we might be. Because wonder happens anywhere.

Even when we can't be there. Because wonder happens anytime.

Even when we're stuck inside.

Stand there, wherever "there" is, long enough. It'll happen. All you have to do is believe.
