It's Actually Raining!

For weeks there has been all kinds of noise. And yes, I do mean that in multiple senses of the word, and places in the world, but most especially — meteorologically. Today raindrops accompany the raucous rumbles and flashes from the heavens for a change, at least for a little while. It feels good to me and I’m guessing also to the trees and plants that have been patient and parched and just a little too crunchy for many days now. Mother Nature’s water therapy. Vital. Nurturing. Sustaining. Reminding us all of how good flow can feel, how it even sounds like floating. (And I do love to float, big boat, little boat, sailboat, motorboat, no boat, inner tube, water noodle… You name it). Despite the sky drama, the rain (pluie in French, which let’s face it, is fun to say) is light, easeful, a moment of holiday in a spring-summer of something else entirely. Today negative ions are bringing positive energy. And for that, I am thankful.
