“Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness
has never danced
in the rain”
I was walking to my car this afternoon, and it started to rain, and not just a trickle, but hard, soaking rain.
Everyone around me ran for cover.
But something about feeling its icy drops on my skin made me stand still.
Standing there, all by myself, I let the rain embrace me.
And then I did something I haven't done since I was a kid.
I raised my face to the sky, stuck out my tounge and tasted its sweetness, then I threw my hands up in the air and twirled around like an excited child.
.
I knew everyone was watching me, but I didn't care.
.
What a beautiful, beauty-filled day.

I did that once in college. There was a HUGE rainstorm and I went outside and danced in it. What a feeling of freedom!
This touched my heart. I wish I could have seen you do this, I would have joined in too. Good for you!
you are my soul sister - no joke! it's cool to just DO and not care what others think. i LOVE rain and our drought is over - woohoo!!!!
Hey, I did the exact same thing about a month ago! We were bushwalking and it started pouring down. I put my arms out, head up to heavens and stuck my tongue out! I felt like a glorious little girl enjoying the thrill of the rain. We came back completely soaked and I loved every minute of it!!!
