When the sunlight strikes raindrops in the air, they act as a prism and form a rainbow. The rainbow is a division of white light into many beautiful colors. These take the shape of a long round arch, with its path high above, and its two ends apparently beyond the horizon.
I was sitting on a rock above crashing waves as I looked out on the endless horizon with nothing but a pen and a blank notebook. At the end of 2011, I was a thousand miles away from the nearest stage, on a remote beach on the Galápagos Islands, and in some weird way, this was the place I had been trying to get to since I was a little girl.
