Rainy Days

Today there was rain, lots of rain. In fact, you could easily say that there was a flood of rain today; but we won’t.

I’ve never really liked the rain. It always decides to cling to my glasses and screw with my vision. Damn you rain, I need to see. Today, it also messed up other things. I had planned what might be my only camping trip of the summer (sad, I know) for tomorrow. However, due to the flooding rains (that are set to continue tomorrow), I will not be camping. I’m terribly sad for this. I miss the great outdoors, especially considering that I’ve been sick with bronchitis for the past three weeks. I just want to go and explore, hike, enjoy nature, and shoot some photographs. What’s so hard about letting me do that nature, huh?

So, even though great Mother Nature has decided to thwart my plans to enjoy her beauty tomorrow, I did manage to enjoy a bit today. The rain was long and hard. It made me sad. And as I was looking out my window, I saw my sadness reflected. Here is that sadness captured and held in ransom until Mother Nature gives me back my camping trip.

There’s Sadness in the Rain

    Anyone who uses the word thwart must be somewhat a deep thinker…Rain is by far a sad thing. You should really think more on this and what is brought by the rain….
