Rain's Essence

It's raining cats and dogs, dinosaurs and elephants, spiders and tarantulas today!

Many people don't like the inconvenience it brings due to the fact that they can't do their chores and task easily. Nevertheless, the twist of the heavy rain imparts beauty and pleasure to others. Rain as we all know, is a liquid precipitation that requires a thick layer of atmosphere to have a temperature above the melting point of water near and above the Earth's surface. It is the condensation of atmospheric water vapor into drops of water heavy enough to fall. The clouds are included in this process.

For children rain is a form of fun, another way of having time with their friends, playing those puddles, running on the streets, making the rainwater as a shower that pass thru the roof's surface down or maybe a hole something. Can you imagine the fun and the innocence that the children portray on their faces? I always remember my childhood memories when it rains. Having those memories in the rain makes me wanna play with the children on the street even if I'm an adult already. I simply missed the fun and the puddles where I usually jumped into despite the dirt I know it has.

On the other hand, there are parents who don't allow their children to bathe under the rain. They are concern about the sickness their child might get after. Of course, I understand that. But the joy in the eyes of a child, counts a lot for me.  Yet, parents are parents and children follow them. So, okay, let's not tackle further about that. I'm not yet a parent anyway. Hehehe

There can also be lots of wonderful moments under the rain. Let's site some example, a couple - a boyfriend or girlfriend perhaps. Can you imagine what's in my mind now while having this example? Yeah right. Holding hands. The man carries the umbrella to protect the woman or while carrying the umbrella, the man's palm is on the woman's shoulder. Get the picture? Their bodies are slightly close to each other walking under the rain. It's like a scene in the movie with matching some music. Isn't it sweet and romantic?

Another thing, people on the street are running or walk too fast keeping themselves from the rain. Sometimes the place is quite because everyone is sleeping. The coldness of the temperature tempts the people to go to bed, cover themselves with their blankets and close their eyes for an extreme moment of rest. Wow!

Group of friends have their "tambay time". Talking, eating some chips, music, playing cards etc. are few of the means to entertain each other. House owners who have plants outside are happy because they don't need to water their plants the next day or perhaps the farmers. There are numerous things to enjoy when it's raining. Take a look at it first. 

Personally let's get some serious thing now, rain in one way or the other represents tears, trials and pains. When we shed tears it means there is something our hearts that we can't say. Our feelings of disappointment are hidden with the liquid that our eyes produce. It cleanes the eyes - yes! But the fact that we cry, something is heavy. Even so, we have to remember that in every rain there is s always rainbow. A rainbow that represents God's love and compassion. A rainbow that sends another way out for us to start again. A rainbow that reminds us to stand still and courageous now matter how many times we fall. A rainbow that forgives us.

Therefore, let's not worry about our lives, whatever kind of rains we have, always see the good side in it. Better yet, it contributes life's beauty and pleasure. Better yet, it adds colors and texture in life more. And better yet, it makes us appreciate and realize how wonderful life is.

On the other hand, we can also have rain of blessings. That means, the Lord pour down His blessings without measure.

Let's celebrate rain's essense!
