Rainbow Connection

Jenny just came from Japan and she bought me a rainbow. It's a little black flipbook with a little strip of rainbow colors, which, well...which you flip and wonderfully watch the colors arch into a rainbow. And that's it. That's all this little book does. Rainbow in your hand by Masashi Kawamura. Funny how the Japanese can think of such things. Crafty. Nifty cool.
It was a little black book that came with no instructions, so Jenny put a note saying I should come over to her cube so she could teach me how to 'use' it. And when she was done showing me how, she nonchalantly said, "I just thought of giving it to you, so you'll always have a rainbow everywhere you go." And the best part was, she wasn't trying to be mushy or cute. She just said it as it is. And it felt great to hear those words. Inexplicably nice. Much like the feeling I get when I do see a rainbow in the sky.

Thanks Jenny :)

Things to be grateful for today:
1. Sincere people
2. Love
3. Health
4. Quick trips to Tagaytay
5. Alfajor
6. Waking up, knowing I can move every body part that's supposed to move
7. Family
8. Sleep
9. Milk
10. Rainbows.

p.s.
it's uncanny how the law of attraction works. For the past few days I've been watching & 're-watching' Kermit's Rainbow connection. And look what I got. :)
