Rainbows

So, I was walking to the parking lot from campus the other day and found something rather strange. 
It had been a rough day.  Lots of therapy, and I was rather emotionally drained.  On the other hand, the day was lovely, we just had about a week of sunshine and warmth, so that was rather cheery.  Mostly I was just trying to decide how I was feeling as far as my emotions went, when suddenly I spotted balloons.
To get to my usual parking lot from campus, you have to cross a rather busy road.  To avoid accidents, the university built a couple bridges over the road for the students to use.  As I walked toward the bridge, my eyes were caught by the bright yellows and pinks of balloons.  I assumed it had something to do with student body elections (yeah, those are this week :P), but when I got closer I noticed there was also a "rainbow" made of streamers running along the walls of the bridge.  All along it someone had taped up encouraging rainbow quotes.
Well, at that point, my mood had been decided.  That was a happy day. :)

Oh, and there's this awesome blog post you should all check out by Danielle Shipley!  I was so excited to read it: http://everonword.wordpress.com/2014/02/27/in-which-i-risk-uniting-a-divided-world-in-disdain-for-me/
