Another Rainy Afternoon



This afternoon is rainy and grey, and time seems to be going at its own pace, so it has been a good time for reflection and for exploring new ideas. The weather has created a pause in my productivity, but as usual, I love the sound that the drops make as they fall, they way they blanket the world like a mysterious curtain—you never know what they could reveal. The gloominess that has lasted all day can be felt, but more than anything it gives so much space for my thoughts to grow. I still love rainy afternoons, because my imagination wanders and I can more easily escape into my own little worlds. Coffee and words blend so well with the rain, I could write on a day like this for hours.

Today, the words aren’t coming as easily as they usually do, but I’m hoping that tonight may bring them out. Sometimes the middle of the week can leave me searching for a better way to occupy my time when the creativity isn’t so readily flowing. Now, I’m looking for ways to make the most out of these fall days ahead of me. For today, I will embrace the rain that falls around me and allow it to clear away the cobwebs from my mind.
