Lessons From Nature--Walking in the Rain

I always liked the pitter-patter of rain as a child. For some reason the sound was always soothing for me. I used to lay awake at night when it was raining outside and listen to the sound of the howling wind and thousands of drops of rain, slapping the concrete sidewalk below and drumming against our flat, tar-papered roof. It would ultimately lull me into a deep, restful sleep. I think that rain has the same affect on me now, even as an adult. When it is rainy I don't feel like going anywhere, or doing anything. I can enjoy just sitting and looking out the window with a roaring fire going in the background and relaxing. Better yet, I can enjoy taking a walk out in the rain. I was visiting my parents in Chester, the town in which I had been raised, the first time I did that as an adult. I covered myself from head to toe in rain gear and good water proof boots, and took a walk during a terrible rain storm.

Sometimes ...

Pick up any magazine and it seems there's something wrong with us if we're not permanently happy, energetic, up-beat, awash with money and having a great sex life.
