Rainy days and Rainbows

List 5-10 “rainy days,” or challenging moments from your past, and then select one to detail a “rainbow” or positive result from it.

It is often said that without rain, there would be no rainbows. Look back at the “rainy days” in your life. Painful as they may have been, they also brought about growth, resilience, or even a completely unexpected joy. By relating the difficulties that you have encountered with the subsequent positive outcomes, this prompt can help you to see your struggles in a more balanced, perhaps even a transformative, light.
