Colours of a Rainy Day

I was driving to work.
My car was shaken by the rainstorm when a horse trailer came in front of me.
A grey, slow horse trailer! Oh no!
I will be late!

I was focussed on the greyness in front of me.
Everything was grey. The rain was grey, the trailer was grey, the road was grey.

Suddenly my awareness shifted.
My eyes caught a sense of the exploding colours of the wonderful autumn trees on both sides of the road. Beautiful yellows and reds, all washed and shining.

I didn't see the horse trailer anymore.
I didn't worry about the time.

I was only amazed by the beauty around me.

What are you giving your attention to?
