Smooth sail
The rain makes me pensive. Most of the time. I like being in the rain sometimes when it doesn't get me sick. These days, thanks to 9398, I pay more attention to the weather....
Sometimes, just sometimes, when I think no one is watching... I purposely stomp on puddles to make splashes...and it brings me back to days where we'd fold paper boats and let them float along the huge longkang outside gram's provision shop. The rain, sometimes is so much, the water level comes up to the roads. Me and cuz would fold paper boats and float them along a race.... and run along chasing our boats to see who wins...
Inevitably, some boats get stuck in some nook and corner...
I'd remember watching the raindrops splash into the water... squatting by the longkang as a young kid... with droplets of rain falling on my face. Wondering about life in general.
Life's lessons come early. But we hardly know.
Those days in the rain. Me and cuz with our boats.... it tells us...
Life is never a smooth sail.
U fold as many paper boats if you must. But sometimes, when the sun comes out and rain stops.
What you have left, was the journey.
Note to self: Try not to get stuck in a nook or corner....
