Feeling The Rain And Living Life With Heart

Watching rainfall is one of the most amazing feelings you can experience. This happens when you decide to look at it with an open heart. I like to experience rain in two different ways.

Sitting on my couch, watching through the window and paying attention to nature singing one of its most beautiful songs of all…
The intensity of the rain varies as the wind gets involved. It reminds me of a symphony by an orchestra. You could get lost in the music and be part of it.

Second, I like to be in the rain as it gets started. That first drop……. Like a touch of the man you love for the first time, every time. It hits you, sends a shiver up your spine, and settles on the nerves inside your brain. And you will close your eyes, embracing the feeling of a cold drop of water against your skin, and the next……

As the downpour begins, I love to stand still with my hands as wide as I can hold, my palms open, my face lifted upwards, and my eyes closed….. Water droplets will hit hard, with no mercy and delightful pleasure. It sways me in ways I can never capture in words… I will feel the water dripping down from head to toe; as they move, they tickle, tease, and tell me their story…..

I am one of those who feel the rain. I had forgotten how to handle it for a long time. I bumped into this quote today. And I remember letting go of that umbrella and being crazy wild in the rain, part of nature’s symphony. It gives me a cleansing feeling… Reminds me of the love I hold for everything in this life… I feel it so much with my soul…

I want to be soaked in the rains life offers… And get wet and feel and dance in the storms it provides. It is our hearts that make us live a life of contentment. Feeling and living life involves a little bit of bravery from your heart. It is up to you to feel the rain or to get wet. I hope you feel it at least once in your lifetime.

I hope you try the rain next time it comes around.

Luv
Saj
