Rainy Days

First and foremost, i'm sorry that I haven't been blogging that much lately. I've literally had nothing to say about anything. lol-And that is rare. So hopefully it will change soon, as I miss having things to say.

Anyways--today I awoke to the sound of rain on the roof. There was a point in my life that I really really hated rain. It seemed to affect my whole day negatively. I would feel tired, lethargic (I know this is a synonym for tired, but it still helps make my case) and foggy. Not to mention the affect rain has on my hair. *those other people with curly hair who straighten it know what i'm talking about. Rain=automatic expansion of hair body by atleast 340%. Then you add in the humidity factor, and we are talking a 'fro of epic porportions.

Thankfully, as I layed in my bed this morning, I realized my outlook on rainy days has changed. First of all, my hair is curly today. So the rain does nothing to negatively expand body! The curls drink in the rain and add a little more pep to my 'do! Secondly, rain makes me relax. One of my bests put it best the other day when we were talking--"Rain makes the world slow down." Selah.

Rain renews and refreshes the world around me--and it also rinses off my car.

There really is a positive side to everything--even those things we hate, or strongly dislike. So bring it on Mother Nature- "I got Sunshine, on a cloudy day...."
