You Are a Rainbow POTD

A while ago I read an article about the people of the Marshall Islands, about their language, their history, their fragile, disappearing home. I learned about a word they have, so versatile, so complex. “Iakwe” means hello, goodbye, I love you. But the most important meaning (to me at least): You are a rainbow. And, like the rainbow people in the Marshall Islands, you are beautiful; you are worth waiting for and worth searching for (so let no one tell you differently). You have powers inside you that maybe you can’t see yet because your light and your prism haven’t met. You have the power to even brighten someone’s day. So maybe you might not appear until after the rain; no big deal! You are no less beautiful. Iawke. Hello. Goodbye. I love you. You are a rainbow.
