the problem is that in todays world, we can rarely appreciate it. we are usually off driving, and the rain makes it more dangerous, or walking in nice clothes, when the rain ruines both them and our appearance. lets face it, rain can present some unwanted hastles. but when i can sit and appreciate the rain, boy do i love it. or when im going to sleep, there is nothing quite as good as rain.
but lets not forget, water might be what originally gave us life, but it can take it away just as fast. point in case: the tsunami. floods kill thousands every year, sometimes hundreds of thousands. crops can be devastated by extensive rain or by hail. and i live in miami, so dont even get me started about hurricanes. may i propose: if youve never (really) prayed for the rain to stop, utter a prayer of thanks.
