Despite the gloomy clouds hovering across the skies, I am not ashamed to admit the I have an undeniable love for the rain. Rain simply gives me the feels; here are some of the reasons why.
1. It's the perfect opportunity to curl up and read a good book.
Sure, I love spending time outdoors when the sun warms my soul, but I also love the comfort of my bed and momentarily being able to escape the world with a book in my hands during a rainstorm.
2. It's refreshing.
Sometimes it seems as if this world is oozing with unnecessary hurt and sorrow, but when it rains, all of that gets washed away. It reminds me of the story of Noah's Ark in the Bible when the earth is washed anew.
3. Everything is more romantic in the rain.
Sacrificing your appearance in an attempt to win over someone's heart? How much more romantic can it get? Take a look at numerous Nicolaus Sparks books/ movies and I am positive that you will find picture perfect examples.
4. Jumping in puddles awakens the child within you.
Please tell me that you jumped in puddles when you were a kid, if not you still have a chance! The next time it rains I highly encourage you to slip on your rain boots and go splash around outside.
5. Rain has a beautiful melody.
The soft pitter patter of rain pummeling down the windowpanes provides no sweeter sound.
6. Rain feels like a giant hug.
Call me crazy, but I actually enjoy bundling up and walking through the rain. The pressure of the cascading water droplets reminds me of being enveloped in a warm embrace.
7. Rain gives us RAINBOWS!
Everyone loves rainbows and if you try and say otherwise, then let’s just agree to disagree.
