A lot of times we tend to think of rain as inconvenient
the laundry won't dry
my favorite pants will be mud-splashed
somebody's umbrella would drip all over the place
traffic would get intense
Much ado about what we don't like about rain..
But rain is beautiful too, did you know?
Rain is a life-saving drink to thirsty plants
It is a joyous relief for hectares of parched land
and for that patch of prickly heat on your back
Rain on your face makes it glisten
Rain on your hair makes it soft and supple
There are simple and profound reasons to be thankful for rain
It is a clean shower to a polluted world
It is a shot of energy for a tired earth
It is a fresh store of water for an island-dweller's cistern
It is a cold, boisterous bath for children on the street
For me, rain is all of that and a little bit more..
Rain on the window pane is one more hypnotic reason to snuggle in bed!
