Rain

Why do we run from the rain, when we should be
savoring the softness of each drop as it gently
falls all around us..and on us...caressing the
skin and leaving its mark for a while. Why do
we duck our heads and run in the rain, when we
should be looking up and feeling the gentle
liquid as it showers our face with an adornment
we have not felt...in a long time...since
childhood maybe. Enjoy the rain....the
moment....the memories.

Such beauty in your words, Jim and in thoughts so true. Very appropriate write for those of us in Southeast Texas today where it is currently storming.
Take care and keep up the great work.
