Rain's Symphony

It's raining again. I can hear the droplets as they sound off like a orchestra before their performance. Each of the droplets play make a different sound as they fall on the various pieces that bring this scenery I see outside my window together. Maybe this is what its like to be blind. Maybe vision is overrated. Sometimes one can paint pictures with sound alone.

First year of college is officially over. All that has happened has slowly passed by and become memories. Some memories were delightful, yet there were other painful ones as well. Some memories, I want to cherish for a lifetime, yet there are also those I want to fade into the distance. But with every new memory, there holds another life lesson; I've learned quite a few of those this past year. With each new life lesson, I feel as though I'm an slowly being molded into what I believe to be God's own symphony. Each lesson God is trying to show me is like the cascading raindrops falling on leaves, roofs, and roads. Just like how these little raindrops can come together to create a chorus that is both loud yet beautiful, God places us in little scenarios that when linked together can truly change a person. It's truly inspiring to think about things that way. It's really makes a person appreciate all of God's creation a bit more. Sometimes, I really just have to sit back and marvel at all the beauty I see around me, and feel humbled at God's awesomeness.

Here's a quote I found about rain:

"Ever wonder why we find rain relaxing or beautiful? Perhaps it is because rain brings life. To the fields, crops and land. It brings back the green, keeps it going so to speak. Maybe it is entwined within our genetics to know this, to bring a sense of peace, that everything will be ok. That the food will grow and that will help us survive. This is surely what our ancestors thought and knew, so it surely is within us."
