Clouded feeling

Rain is the life blood of our earth. If there was just sunshine we would never see the amazing and wonderous natural fireworks that thunderstorms provide us. So why do we wish it away? We care so much for our outdoor enjoyment yet we wish the rain will end. We would have no flowers or trees or wildlife to provide the enjoyment of the outdoors. Remember when you were a child and you rolled in the soft grass. That would not be possible with no rain. With no clouds for shade we would be too hot and with no rainstorms to take the heavy humidity we would surely melt under it's weight. We should no longer teach our children to dislike the rain. We should teach them to embrace it. Take your children out to play during a summer rain. Get muddy and play joyfully. They shall then see that it is all part of a wonderous nature that we must be grateful for and not upset about. Children are willing to accept anything that you teach them and when we teach them to embrace their surroundings no matter the weather they will turn out to be more grateful and joyful adults.
