Rain

[mdlbear]

It's raining; a steady rain that marks the end of the dry season. I'm hoping that this won't be another year when the rains start early and end even earlier; we're coming off of two or three years of drought. We'll see. Every once in a while I can hear the wind howling in the trees and the wires. It's beautiful.

I managed to misplace my raincoat. It was, of course, exactly where I'd put it to get it out of the way for the dry season: hanging on the back of the office door.

Is the change in the weather a sign of other changes? The economy? Health care? It's too much to hope for, I know, but I'm going to try to be hopeful regardless, as the year winds down into winter.

Rainy cleanses, and heals and reminds us to drink in the remaining days of lightness, before the dark days of winter. I have always loved the rain...and when the wind tears through the trees, they seem to sing to me of so many things. I love stormy days, and the latent (and not so latent) power they share with those such as I.

I look for the clouds rolling in off the Sound, and watch as they seek the land to replenish and refill...

I am glad that you found your raincoat, but remember sometimes to dance in the storm as well. (Thanks Tom)

Love, Hugs and Blessings,
