The title might sound a bit misleading to begin with but for me its bang on! And Im talking about the RAINS :) I totally love the rains and the fact that the monsoon arrives after 3-4 months of gruelling heat just adds to the whole flavour of the season......
To me its the most beautiful of all seasons ...... Somehow I cant see anything negative about the rains though there are many factors that realistically make it tough .... but I still feel its the best season we have and its a miracle of nature ...... Im sure there there is a very scientific and rather boring way to explain the occurence of rains ..... but Id rather go by the way I perceive it or for that matter anyone who thinks from their heart and not their head........
There is something about the sun/the heat that just brings out irrtability in me and then I cant really see anything as wonderful and beautiful around me .... I am at my cribby and whiney best ....... And the absolute opposite happens during the monsoon..... My mood changes ...JUST LIKE THAT! I am happy without reason.....The rains just do it.. They just bring out a very happy side in me without any effort on my part..........
The best is the first shower ..... Its just magical and there are not enough words in any language to do justice to the feeling it evokes ....... Sheer bliss......
Showers from up above, the smell of the wet earth, a hot cuppa tea/coffee, a cosy and comfy feeling are just some of the lovely happenings associated with rains ..... Everything looks and feels better than it actually is ........Its really strange ... the happy emotions a heavy downpour can bring out ... I find myself dancing around the house .....humming happy songs in my head .... showering more TLC on my family .... And its funny cos in my house no one else feels as much for and about the rains than I do ..... So they are just left wondering what the hell happened ..... :)
The fact that I am a water baby may have something to do with it as well ..... The fact that someone up there made sure I arrive on this planet in this season was very thoughtful on their part .....Im very grateful for that and it most certainly was very kind of whoever runs the show up there..... Given a choice I wudnt have arrived at any other time, :)
Thunder and lightning to me always are indicators of a heavenly presence along with the rains ....... The most beautiful natural phenomena that your eyes can actually witness.....
Getting wet in the rains ...... just WOW .... Its an experience like no other ....... Since we live in a civilised or rather an uncivilised society , its tough to act on impulse visavis getting wet, as it calls for unnecessary attention and much more ... But if i could have my way , Id love to go and get wet in the rain and not have a care in the world ......
If you are a tea lover like I am .. then the joy of having a hot hot cuppa masala / ginger chai in the rains is something else altogether........Also the joy of watching a mushy film all cuddled up or reading some nice romantic novel, listening to some melodious, soul stirring music ... all of it such a pleasure at this time of the year!
And last but not the least is the fact that if you have a special someone in this season .... Romance is a different high altogether...... I miss that ..... Not having that special someone does get to you at times for various reasons but not having a partner in this season , with whom you can enjoy the rains gets to you at a different level ........ Whenever that happens I know the joy of it will be unparalleled.... Till then atleast the rains are here and that I can certainly enjoy with or without anyone :)
So cheers to my favourite season ...... :)
May more and more blessings come our way from the heavens above ..........
