Heaven on Earth


My granddaughter Paige and I were driving home from school one day when the skies seem to be threatening to storm.  Paige said she loved rainbows.  I told her I did too.  A while back we discussed the meaning of a rainbow or rain-bow, which is a symbol of peace.  She asked me if they were real or just colors reflecting in the sky.  I then shared my all-time favorite rainbow experience.  Driving, one spring day from Lahaina, Maui on Hwy 30, my husband and I saw the most beautiful and very large rainbow; so big that it took two pictures for me to capture it completely.  One end was to our left on the hillside while the other end was across the highway in the ocean water.  The closer we got the cars on the highway seem to come to a crawl.  I realized why when we met the rainbow face-to-face.  The car filled up with a million colors.  I looked at Mark and him at me and together with tears of joy in our eyes we felt the most wonderful sense of peace.  This indeed reminded me that heaven is here on Earth.  Yes, Paige, rainbows are real. ~ Pris (a.k.a.
