The Rainbow connection

Rhonda Byrne wrote a best seller, "The Secret". It made her very rich and popular. Her book is about making dreams come true through the power of thoughts. One attract what one thinks, good or bad - the law of attraction. The rainbow has a secret too, written in the sky, after the storm. Someone said "Life is like a rainbow. You need both the sun and the rain". Conditions, combinations of sunlight and raindrops are needed to bring about a rainbow - a secret revealed by Sir Issac Newton. A deeper secret may be that actualization of dreams is all about the getting the right conditions and combinations - the right mix. Take for example Manchester United, recently crowned Champions of Europe. Without 42 goal hero Christiano Ronaldo, could they have achieved the dream? Without the new faces - Tevez, Hargreaves, Anderson, Nani - could they have achieved the dream? In all probability not. United were lost about winning the Champions League for about 9 years before this team came along. You can ask Sir Alex how hard it is to find the right team. The right conditions and combinations of people and ideas - "the rainbow connection"- actualize dreams.

As Kermit the Frog (the Muppet Movie) sang:-

Why are there so many songs about rainbows

And what's on the other side?

Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,

And rainbows have nothing to hide.

So we've been told and some choose to believe it

I know they're wrong, wait and see.

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,

The lovers, the dreamers and me.
