As the rain kept falling......

Driving in my car the other day on a rainy , cloudy Michigan day...listening to music playing softly on the radio, mesmerized by the wiper's hypnotic rhythm I realized how at peace and really grateful I was at that moment. Yes, grateful for the fresh smell of the rain washing away all of the heat and dryness in the air, I felt glad to be alive and well.

It is the simple things I thought YES those are the things that make this life worthwhile above anything else.

Thats a good post lana123... Im' glad to be among the living too,those little things can remind us of our many blessings we may take for granted.
Rain? Im' always thankful,we've had several severe droughts here in Alabama.Water rationing and dried up lakes will make you thankful when you smell rain.

Yes,it has this year lana123....the past few years have been pretty dry.They added two more boat ramps to keep up with fluxuating water levels.The dry storage where I keep my boat on Smith Lake.Some people's docks were sitting on dry ground.
You could only water grass or wash cars on specified days.

Good morning Lana - it's 8.18am and it's pouring rain here.
I woke up and thank God that I could still get up and hear the rain drops falling on my ceiling - such a soothing sound to ones' ears...Anyway, great weekend to you and stay safe....teddybear
I have a friend in New York that loves the rain. I guess she's the "Singing In The Rain" type of woman.
