			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seeing Rainbows in the Darkest Night.&#160; It’s a special gift I have.&#160; It’s something that I thought came naturally, but when I look back over my Journey that brought me here, it was actually a skill I developed.</p>
<p>It’s not something just a few people can do.&#160; It’s something anyone can do.&#160; Some of us have practiced so much it feels natural, like a gift or talent.</p>
<p>What do I mean by “Seeing Rainbows in the Darkest Night”?&#160; Where did this come from?</p>
<p>A vision…one of those messages that can be lightly passed off as something made up.</p>
<p>I saw a rainbow in my mind’s eye, and it was in the middle of the Night Sky.&#160; I called it “Night Sky Rainbow”.&#160; It was really quite beautiful.&#160; I put it to paper with my markers.&#160; Sure it looked like a drawing I would have made as a child, but it did have the feeling.</p>
<p>Night Sky Rainbow.&#160; It seemed like an oxymoron.&#160; One of those things that just doesn’t make sense.&#160; Rainbows in the night?&#160; There’s no light?</p>
<p>Why would I see a rainbow in the night sky?</p>
<p>Why DO I see rainbows in my night sky?</p>
<p>I’ve practiced.&#160; When I use my <a href="http://joy-journal.com" target="_blank">JOY Journal</a>, I practice.&#160; When I look for and find the gifts in my painful or terrifying experiences, I practice.</p>
<p>It’s so easy to get caught up in what’s not working.&#160; It’s so easy to fill your vision with fear, sorrow or anger.</p>
<p>But what is really happening?&#160; These Events are not meant to bring us down and grind us into the earth.&#160; We’re being asked to look into that Night Sky, not hide our eyes.&#160; Eventually we’ll see a little sparkle of light.&#160; As we look deeper into that little sparkle, we’ll see the Rainbow.&#160; Once we’ve spotted the Rainbow, we have a choice.&#160; Do we fill our vision with the Rainbow, or do we turn back to the darkness of the night?</p>
<p>As we journey through life, many of the paths we walk along are covered in darkness.&#160; These Events, these Night Sky’s, are always filled with some kind of blessing or gift, if we just look for them.&#160; </p>
<p>The Rainbow will lead you there.</p>
<p>Dream BIG!</p>
