It’s been pretty dry this summer, and for here, that’s saying a lot. Usually we get rain every few days in the summer, but this year, not so much. I know there are farmers out there with suffering and dying crops and that’s never a good thing.
Today, it’s pouring. Thunder and lightning and rain coming down in torrents so hard you can barely see across the street. There will probably be some minor flooding in the rivers in our area but overall, the earth will drink this stuff up like a drunken sailor.
Rain. Beautiful, glorious rain. I once had a woman describe it to me as liquid sunshine. How perfect is that?
Today I’m thankful for rain.
How about you? What are you thankful for?
