The true meaning of rain

Have you ever noticed…

The way that when it’s raining everyone is just so sad

They don’t realize that the rain is coming to wash away the bad things from the Earth and put them where they belong

They just see that the sky is dark and that the rain ruins their hair

They don’t realize that rain is here to keep the plants alive and keep them strong,

The rain keeps them healthy, without the rain, we wouldn’t have the little things like the trees that keep us alive

Or the oceans that we all love to swim in, or that are the homes to the creatures that so many of us like to eat

When it rains the dirt turns into mud, drops of rain fall down the window, the steps are so much harder to walk down

We just see the surface, never what lies beneath,

It’s just like life,

When things aren’t perfect and the tears fall from your eyes

You’re just so sad

Your world is dark and it’s cold and you just wanna grab your security blanket and hide from it

You don’t realize that the rain is coming to wash away the pain that you are feeling

You don’t realize that your rain makes you stronger, your rain helps grow your character like the trees that we depend on to keep us alive

Your rain is your source of strength, it’s where the weakness inside of you hides, but when it comes out, it’s gone forever

The rain makes it harder to get out of bed because there’s just so much pain, makes it harder to think because everything is just so foggy

The periods of rain seem to last forever

But the warm sunny days after them

They’re so beautiful,

So perfect,

But it takes the rain to appreciate them
