This week, Sunday Reflections brings you select quotes on adding a bit of ‘rainbow’ to our lives:

“Rainbows introduce us to reflections
of different beautiful possibilities
so we never forget that pain and grief
are not the final options in life.” ~ Aberjhani

“You will pass through storms and heavy rains, and at times you will suffer defeat. The essence of the creative life, however, is not to give up in the face of defeat but to follow the rainbow that exists within your heart.” ~ Daisaku Ikeda

“The white light streams down to be broken up by those human prisms into all the colors of the rainbow. Take your own color in the pattern and be just that.” ~ Charles R. Brown

“May you find in the nectar of life, the sweetness of hope in your heart, feel the comfort of song birds in your soul, the grace of new wind in your wings. Color your spirit with rainbows and shower gold dust in your hair. Time heals. Life renews. Dreams take flight again. Close your eyes and drink it all in.” ~ Laurel Burch

“Seasons are like life. Some seasons are better than others. Some have more sun and rainbows. Others have storms and tornadoes. Some have both. You have to accept that, and bring colour and light to the season you’re in as best you can, and always look forward to the next season.” ~ Cathy Lamb

“Sometimes it’s important to work for that pot of gold. But other times it’s essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow.” ~ Douglas Pagels

“Life’s a choice: you can live in black and white, or you can live in colour. I’ll take every shade of the rainbow and the gazillion in between!” ~ Karen Marie Moning

“God put the rainbow in the clouds, not just in the sky… It is wise to realize we already have rainbows in our clouds, or we wouldn’t be here. If the rainbow is in the clouds, then in the worst of time, there is the possibility of seeing hope… We can say ‘I can be a rainbow in the cloud for someone yet to be.’ That may be our calling.” ~ Maya Angelou

“The true harvest of my life is intangible — a little star dust caught, a portion of the rainbow I have clutched.” ~ Henry David Thoreau
