    Rainstorm Ponderings (19:07)

    As the clouds loom above I look forward to the showers that will follow. As spring arrives the flowers will awaken from their winter slumber and bless us all with their colors and scent of renewal.

    The dark grey granite wall looms above; should I try to overcome the obstacle or walk around it? Should I take on the challenge and fail it would not be in vain, it's better to try and fail than to just walk around the mountain.

    Looking around the forest I see one majestic tree standing alone. It watches over the rest of us to keep us safe and warm. Let no harm come to my grove that I watch over.

    As my thoughts run through a pen, water will continue to flow, hot or cold, dark or light, they must be let out. Should no one see the stream it still flows along its own path. Day and night it will persevere until it finds the lake where it can at last rest.

    The dark grey clouds are approaching over the horizon, should we welcome the rain to feed the earth or seek shelter from the upcomming storm? As I stand in the field and watch, there shines a stream of light through the clouds. The warm rays of light slowly melt away the greyness. Leaves unfurl and animals come out of hiding to find the warmth. Together we all gather in the glade and rejoice. Another cycle has begin.
