And the rain continues

I woke up this morning to the familiar sound of rain slapping against the sides and roof of the house. I did not have any pressing appointments early so I could lay under the covers and reflected on either the unceasing amount of water deluging our days, or focus on the wonderful gift of green and nutrition to our earth. I preferred the second (though there are times I choose to sit and wallow in my pity, feeling sorry for us all that have not seen the sunshine in forever!)
After I was lulled into a melancholy state I walked to the window in the Bonus Room and gazed as the healthy, happy flowers raising their arms up to receive all that Mother Nature was offering them. They were so content, so happy just being who they were created to be, accepting the food from their source.
I couldn't help but wonder how many people are feeling the rain in their lives, daily? Do they see the benefits of all of that nutrition, all of that learning? Are they realizing that they are being fed so when the rain finally stops and the sun comes out they will be more colorful and stand proud and strong?
Five straight days of gray skies and continuous rain. Five nonstop days of being fed. Grow flowers grow! Grow YOU grow!
