Heaven's sky blessed our area with about an inch and a half of rain during the night.
Rainy days hold a special kind of beauty. The way raindrops cling to flower petals, the reflections in puddles. Rain erases the slate by washing away the dust and grime. The trees look greener and the flowers bloom brighter after a rain. Rain is grace. How 'bout the rain that clings to a spider's web? Rain is the sky descending to the earth.
I remember when I was a little girl, living in a large stone house. My brother and I made tents with the kitchen chairs and blankets. We'd crawl inside our tents and listen to the thunder and the rain tapping against the windows. Why on earth do I remember that so vividly all these decades later?
Rain is a Divine gift from Our Creator. Rain falls from the heavens to satisfy the thirst of the earth. Without rain, there would be no life.....plant, animal or human.
Life is full of beauty.
Notice it.
