I had a very long day. The kind that it isn't too bad 'till you
feel like jumping off the nearest skyscraper (oh wait I work in a skyscraper, all the better to *clears throat* with) but it isn't skippy, jumpy good either.
I got three things today.
I had a hope crushed, a compliment passed and a blessing given.
The hope crushing was awful and even the compliment didn't make up for it. I thought I would have to drag myself from yet another bad day. It felt so stinky and yucky. I nearly cried like a baby 'cos my life had to be altered because of someone who wanted something. But I shoved it at the very back of my already messy brain to make sure I didn't look like I was auditioning to be the next Rudolph.
I thank my Creator for the blessing. It was truly a blessing worth more to me than anything could ever mean.
IT RAINED!!
Hee. The rain did it for me. The wind was so soothing and the simple drip, drip, drip of the rain drops calmed me down almost instantly. People should be re-educated to love the rain. Include it in a syllabus or better still create a subject. (A girl can dream right?) Everyone was quickening their pace as the rain got heavier. I watched as one by one; the ladies in high heels, the man with a roll of newspaper on his hand and the couple overtake me. I on the other hand walked as slow as I possibly could. I didn't want the walk home to end. The sky was a beautiful colour. If only I own a camera...
I loved that walk. It made me feel like I did have all the time in the world to sort my thoughts through. It made me consider the beauty of simple things. It made me love the person who invented umbrellas. It made me think.
But, it cost me a bit. "7 Missed Calls". Shoot!
Ma was worried, who could blame her.
Heavy rain + girl + alone + walking = recipe to disaster.
Dearest rain,
I am in love with you!
With love, Tiff =)
