Day 78 - Lollygagging

It's raining buckets outside, and it is so chilly. Interesting weather. Usually our monsoon season is in July, but I understand there are storms elsewhere, and we are getting the wet end of it. Still I love rainy days, curling up under a warm blanket, reading a book, or watching a sappy love story set back in the Victorian period of history.  Truth be told I love to dance in the rain, just like the two munchkins above. It's so refreshing at any age to just let go!

Imagine a summer picnic in the park when suddenly the storm clouds roll in, and the rain starts to pour! What do you do?  Do you run to seek cover, or do you dance?

I can really draw inspiration from this scene...catching that special moment and not letting go because of mere rain! It sets the scene for bigger, better things, don't you think?

 

Children are never inhibited by the freedom to drink it all in, or merrily puddle jump or lollygag! But then lollygagging can be time well spent, never wasted - a child experiencing the wonder.

We are all familiar with this scene of Gene Kelly, singing...just singing in the rain!  Makes you want to burst into song and rush outside and jump in every puddle and splash yourself silly. Ah the simple pleasures in life.  Are you taking the time to enjoy your day in the rain or not?  Every second counts so don't waste it. Dance! Dance! Dance!
