Rain...


I love rain. And since I have recently relocated in the Seattle area I suppose that is a good thing. I don't know why I love it so much. I love the sounds, the smell, the feel of it on my face when I walk outside, and for some reason I love the nostalgic feeling that it brings along with it. I love how it washes the world around me creating a fresh and clean feeling. I have missed it tremendously after living in the desert for the last 6 years. The desert has it's own beauty, but I am definitely one that was built to enjoy the rain. My mother-in-law gave me the perfect wall hanging for my birthday this year and on it, it reads "Those who think only sunshine brings happiness, have never danced in the rain." It is the perfect quote for how I feel about the rain. It makes me happy. And I love things that make me happy. I love the rain. And it's been raining quite a bit.
