Yesterday was a rainy day. Many of us love rainy days. Laying in the bed, listening to the rain on a tin roof, helps you to drift away into the most peaceful of sleep. When an unexpected rain storm comes through at night it is always a treat. Drifting to sleep by the rain beat. So may companies have tried to find ways to reproduce the sound on machines, cds, in rain sticks but nothing compares to the original. A rainy day should translate into an instant day off from work to oversleep in your bed. Of course people in England or Seattle would never get anything done as it rains quite often there, I am almost certain they don't relish the raindrops the way I do. Spring rain brings forth the beauty of new blooms and green grass, summer rain brings mud puddles and a cool break from a sunny day. How about a walk on the beach before the rain starts when the smell of the impending rain is thick in the air. Or a quick shower on a forest walk dripping off the leaves. Of course rain is not so wonderful when your driving or walking in a torrential downpour, which just reinforces the whole day off when it rains thing. Wishful thinking can help you squeeze an extra five or ten minutes in the bed as the rain dances off the roof.... pure bliss..... and lets not forget the beauty of the rainbow that it often leaves behind, a whimsical dream of translucent colored beauty, and maybe even a pot of gold.
