The sun sets on another day…
The sunlight came and went then came and went as I watched the sky and the beauty all around me. It was a fantastic series of frames in an old fashioned movie and droplets sprinkled across the horizon to bring life to the world.
Yes, I was a weirdo. When I was younger many of my classmates would chant the “Rain Rain Go Away” song. For me I would watch the skies and while it rained I would stand outside and look up as the droplets fell to Earth. It was kind of like a star field and somewhere in that time there would always be someone that would yell at me and tell me to get out of the rain.
Funny how that works isn’t it. Funny how everyone tries to get you or me to conform to their norm. Maybe every once in a while we need to walk our own path and be ourselves, after all, we are all special. There is a certain satisfaction in being able to be yourself. Watching the rain fall or staring off into the sunset may not be accepted by everyone but if it’s what you like to do and it doesn’t hurt anyone else, why not.
That takes me to a place years later when I was a young adult and as I watched the rain fall once again onto my face somebody told me to get out of the rain. Dripping with water and a smile on my face I looked at them and said what rain?
So as the sun sets on another day, be yourself everyday. Be that person that you want to be. Choose to rise above and be spectacular. When you are done, smile and laugh, or just be happy in the thought that you are spectacular. Never stop learning, never stop thinking, never stop, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and here comes the rain again…
