Embrace The Rain!

IMG_0539
A rainy day sometime ago.

Last night it rained!

The sky like a colander, sieving the darkness from the raindrops

Whose sound as it made contact with the earthly structures, could not be ignored

'I want to be out there', I thought to myself.

What's stopping me?

I Stepped out the door, ran down the stairs, out into the pouring rain

Alas, its energy was a mixture of strength and care

As the first few drops landed on my skin and hair gracefully

It felt so good!

I lifted my face up to the sky to take in that feeling a little better

With my arms outstretched as though in an embrace with the downpour

That was my moment of indescribable calmness

My soul was sharing an intensely intimate moment with nature

I felt my heart open up, in a moment of incomprehensible exchange

It gave up the chaos and drew in serenity

It gave up confusion and drew in clarity

It gave up the tiring, useless baggage and drew in happiness

Love, appreciation, and enjoyment of the moment was all that existed and mattered

It was an empowering feeling like no other

It was spectacular!
