| Sometimes it seems that we hang onto certain things, people, events in our lives with both hands and expect that in return we will gain something. Unfortunately, with two hands full, how can you receive anything more? It's at those moments in our lives that we realize it's time to let go, that the picture becomes so much clearer. It is then that we're reminded of why we are meant to let go of these things. I laugh because these moments of clarity come rarely and at such odd and inconvenient times. Yet, just the acknowledgment that we understand, that I understand, seems to make that stepping stone or that dip in life so much better. I wish I knew sooner.

| When it rains, the grounds reflect the lights as muddled designs, and perfect shapes become streaks or drops of food coloring in the puddles. The leaves then are scattered in inconsistent patterns and gathered in figures all over the sidewalks. The air is crisp and the water droplets feel so refreshing as they roll down my nose. A slight breeze caresses my face, and I am content. As it seems, I've always been one to think too much, to care too much, to observe too much, and to love too much; yet, on a rainy day, I find it all to be alright to do. Embracing and noticing the little things in life, not only on a rainy day, makes the bigger picture so much more beautiful and so much more fulfilling. Instead of tasting the bitterness of coffee before cream and sugar, smell the rich bold aroma and feel the warmth of noise surrounding you as you sit in the coffee shop. That cup of chocolatey brown doesn't seem so bad anymore, does it? Mm, hand me a cup of rainy day, please - it's time to live my life.
