The Many Sides of Rain

Down under, Brisbane is hugely deluged by the relentless water force.

I am thankful that it doesn't spread to Sdyney, otherwise I would have to think more than twice.

Somehow, water is necessary in our life. We can do without love or food but not water, seriously.

In the context of survival unless one choose to exit.

This H20 comes in many forms. Mild, tender, delicate, rough, tough and forceful.

The howling wind slapped the window of my work station and the gentle waterdrops started to conquer the late evening.

I stopped my work and looked from the window. The city was bathed in rain. In the beautiful light of the night.

A lovely view and atmposhere with the accompanient of the playing music.

Unspeakable. I didn't stay away from the window.

Rain holds some memorable moments  in my life's journal.

It brought me to my first date whom I met on a rainy Sunday.

It also observed the almost broken down ties with an East - ian who had forgotten me, leaving  me in an unfriendly rainy night without an apology. I should have just followed the Jap instead of waiting.

Once in a while, I let myself to taste the raindrops. It may sound silly to soak in the rain but I am on my way towards an unconventional life and unseen thoughts.

I found an interpretation of a joyful rain in this song. Yes, it's the 90's again.=)

RAINY DAY (The Corrs, 1996)

A bomb drops and no-one stirs

On a lazy summers evening

Seated with a man

She knows she shouldn't be with

But in his eyes, the lies surprise

Something she's been needing

A certain touch within her voice

Can tell you what she's feelin'

*I want you

Need you

Yeah, I want you

I need you

**And I'll be lyin' here waitin'

Hopin' lov'll come my way

(Save it for a rainy day)

But if the sun's still shinin'

I'll save it for another day

(Save it for a rainy day)

A door slams and suddenly

She's awoken from her dreams

Of late goodbye's and shadowed eyes

Those crazy summer feelings

*Repeat

**Repeat
