Blessed by a Double Rainbow

A few weeks ago I was attending a wedding of the artist I use for my house cards for home buyers. She is a brilliant artist and was having an semi-outdoor wedding in a rustic barn. Storms were in the forecast but the wedding started without a hitch and the bride walked down the aisle to very unusual selection of Rainbow Connection. Maybe it was an omen but shortly after the ceremony, just as everyone moved from the barn to the reception tent, there was a torrential downpour. Spirits were not dampened and the festivities continued and shortly after the winds blew through, the happy couple and all of their guests were blessed with the view of a double rainbow over the barn. Sometimes things are just meant to be.  

Real estate is like that. Sometimes a home buyer will write an offer on the "perfect" house but then there are multiple offers and it becomes the dream home of someone else. Sometimes a seller accepts an offer an the buyer backs out or financing falls through. These things happen in real estate. But in every case where I have seen this happen, down the road there is another home, another buyer, and another often better deal. It is my job to remind my buyers and sellers of that. When the clouds turn dark, we look for the double rainbow!

My husband loved double rainbows. It came over the ocean at his first wedding in Kauai. It came over our lake after the birth of our son. After his death....as I was dealing with the early pain, I saw one too. Meant the world to me! Best wishes to the happy couple and the metaphor is lovely as well.

A double rainbow on a wedding day!  That had to have felt like a blessed omen.
