Viddy Well: Rainbows And Other Miracles

I don’t know whether to ridicule people who are awed by the natural beauty and wonders of the world or be awed by them myself. I’ve seen a large portion of North America and enjoy the outdoors, but this guy makes me look like either I’m a grinch or a chump for not appreciating nature on his level. All I know is the rainbow doesn’t impress me, but this guy’s appreciation of it does.

I’m not sure, but I think he started to cry.

Then there are people who take something relatively benign and make something out of it. Should I appreciate beautiful harmonies, or dismiss it because its autotunes, its goofy, and its just some weirdness on youtube.

All of this reminds me of how much fun I had laughing at the ICP song “Miracles” on this very blog not so long ago. Am I a cynic simply for not being awed by what you could describe as mundane every day life?

  1. I certainly think rainbows are beautiful, and love to see double ones. But their not exactly awe imspiring. Maybe it was the combination of the environment (YOSEMITE!) and the weather that brought him to tears.

    • At first I thought the guy was high, but he denied it in an interview. And the dude lives there, so, I don’t know.
