It's been pouring rain for a few min. I had to go shut the windows in the van and came back in quite wet. To be honest if it weren't for the raised eyebrows I would get, I would have stayed out there and let it wash over me. It really stimulates feeling. During some of the darkest times in my life I used to do this just to feel. Feel the water pouring down, soaking thru clothing, absorbing into my hair, feeling the chill of the breeze and the brief startling moments when lightning would strike. I also love the sound of thunder. It just lets you know you're alive when your world has been as grey as the skies that preceded. It also lets you know the world around you is alive and vibrant. Since a few weeks ago standing under a tree trying to evade a deluge I've been wanting to do this more and more...
I'm glad I got wet. I took my time walking out there and back. I'll have to just stay out there one of these times...
