Note 48 : Rain - again

"... So you must spend a lot of time walking.. Its the best exercise.." It was a muggy day. Geography textbooks had suggested there would be an onset of winter.

Nature had other plans..

 I had just finished my lecture about walking 2-5 kms away from all the gadgets each day..
 "Why do u forget that you've grown old and we've not" Ag had pondered..

While i still continued lecturing.. Lil was doing what i do with a long conversation, agree with the points and let the sermon end.. I still continued.

You tend to do with your family what you can't do to others.

 The cloud union had decided to block the sun for the day.. and so the sweaty mugginess.. It was a wrong day for the right lesson.. Someone upstairs didn't agree and there was thunder..

Our faces grinned.

 I looked like a happy ogre..
 Ag looked like she found a new disaster.. (It made her happy) - a wide grin
 Lils eyes gleamed.

 A tiny droplet aimed at my nose, Ags heads and Lils hands - all conversation stopped as we all braced for an early Christmas - Rains. It is all a frame of mind, however the onslaught has the strength to turn gloom on its head to a bloom.

 While our fellow walkers ran for cover.. The 3 of us - stood - and gleefully got drenched - as tiny little water particles joyfully embraced the three of us and as plainly as that, made us happy !!

 Rains make us happy.

 And when we reached home - i got to boast - "anyone wanna walk tomoro"..

 " there goes the trumpet" quipped Lil ..
