In the sky heading home today, was a grey clump of cloud with a five inch wide lining of bright yellow white light. A cloud with a silver lining. Not just some proverb lightly bantered about.
I think sometimes I used to get this one round the wrong way, thinking that there's a downside to everything good. The cloud with the silver lining... Seeing it in the sky though, I realise something of its true significance. The cloud seems uglier to the eye with its lining, this grey horrible lump of misery that taunts our eyes. But ringed right around it, outlining it in the sky, is a halo of hope, a beautiful bright glimmer of hope. It seems to say, that it's alright, there's a silver lining to your clouds, something precious that comes out of the miserable little clumps, an upside to every negative. I wonder now how my mood is shifting, whether it might be finding its own silver lining, or perhaps just being content to watch natures own moods for a bit...
