Today was raining
again. I do love rain. One of my happiest moments was in Maldives when I was on
the beach and rain started to pour down from the sky. The drops were hot and
they just run over my body just as a multitude of warmth small touches giving a
feeling of been part of all that beauty.
I end up
diving into the bay and as I floated on the sea, rain drops messing my hair, I
looked back into the beach and saw the palm trees dancing with the wind
following the sound of raining falling. It is still one of those moments to
where I can escape when I feel down.
Rain has
this ability, we call it rain but in fact it is not a single entity. Rain is a multitude
of water drops which will touch one in single manner. It is the adding of each
single touch that will induce your feelings towards the Rain itself, and will
make it Good, Bad or Indifferent about it. Kind of the same of what happens in
a Relationship which strangely enough also starts with “R”.
My love
towards rain started when I was young. My mother would not let me go outside to
play if it was raining. So I would go to a window and wait for it to stop. At
the beginning I just thought “Stupid rain, stop, come on strop!” But as it
never stops when we ask, I just sulked and end up with the “this is not fair”
sentence.
One day
however instead of sulking I just look to it throw a window. It was then when I
fall in love by the Rain. The drops of water hitting the glass and going each
one their one way, some would get together, others would follow their on their
path, others would mingle together before falling, some would stand and wait
for a friend before falling… It was an entire world that was unveiling itself
to me, much of the time things happened so fast that if I was not paying
attention those worlds would just vanished for not be seeing again.
It is the
same as a Relationship. We call it as it
was one entity, but the truth is that it consists of a multitude of things, touches,
words, actions… Any one of them will touch you on a single manner, but it is
their global action which will make your feelings of Love, Hate, Indifference
towards the Relationship a part of you and a part of what you are. As in the
rain drops and the glass, sometimes you need to get a different perspective
before you simply notice that those things are there. And in the same way if
you do not pay enough attention, it will just disappear in front of you and
fall down to earth.
That is why
I do love Rain!
