I love rain

Spring really is my favorite season. One of the main reasons for that is because it rains frequently! I have always loved rain. I love listening to it as it falls on the roof above me. I love watching it as it falls upon the earth, hitting leaves and making them bend and dance with the weight of it. Watching as it pours down and you can barely see beyond your front yard. Watching as it drizzles lightly misting everything in sight with a beautiful layer of water that looks like diamonds sparkling the in the sunshine, should the sun choose to make an appearance. I love feeling the rain as it falls onto my hair, face, and shoulders. I don't care a whit about my hair or makeup, I just want to feel the rain falling upon me. It is always so refreshing. I love to dance in the rain, to splash in the puddles created by the falling water.

I remember when I was a teenager, it was fairly well known that I loved the rain. One day this boy that apparently liked me showed up at work to give me flowers because he knew I would be disappointed not to be outside on a rainy day. It was sweet but the point is that it shows that my love for rain was evident to those around me.

It is always funny to me that when I wake up in the morning and look outside to see it raining I think "What a beautiful day!", when others are thinking "Oh crap! It's raining!" :)
It isn't that I don't like the sun, I do. I think the sun should shine often, but it should not get any hotter than 75 degrees. So I like the sun, love to feel the sun shining on my face, I just think that it should peek out a bit here and there on between the rain.
