Standing In The Rain

This morning when I woke up it was raining and my thoughts were what a blah day. I felt I couldn't do anything without sunshine. Getting Laney to go out in rain is like pushing a mule out the door. She does not like rain, for what reason I do not know. As I sat there watching it rain, I thought what is stopping me from going out in the rain. I couldn't come up with any reason not to go out in the rain. So, I got dressed went out on my patio and stood in the rain. The longer I stood there the harder it rained and I was getting soaked and loving every minute of it. I even tried to coax Laney into the rain, but she just stood at the door and looked at me as if I had lost my marbles. I even pulled up some flowers that had been killed by the frost. And guess what, the only thing that happened was my hair got curly and my clothes were soaked. I didn't get sick, nor did anything awful happen. It was like any other day just no sunshine. So I thanked God for rainy days and the person that invented dryers. And, someday I hope Laney will join me in the rain.
