Why do people complain that it is raining? I understand it may be an inconvenience at times, especially during the summer. Would you rather have forest fires because it is too dry?
Here are some reasons I like the rain...
1. The precipitation cools the hot summer sun down in Florida and creates blankets of snow up north in the winter.
2. It waters our plants and trees and even more importantly, the farmer's crops, which is life-giving. 3. The rain keeps the lawns looking nice and green or at least the lawns that have grass :)
4. It gives the kids mud puddles to walkthrough or splash in
5. The rain flushes the waste and toxins from the ground
6. I believe the rain can be therapeutic listening to the gentle pitter patter of raindrops or watching it trickle down from the sky.
7. Rain is a grateful thing when we do not have to use the water supply when there is a shortage of water.
8. Although you need the sun and rain, you can enjoy the view of rainbows.
9. The rain nurtures the animals and plants in the oldest ecosystems on earth, rainforests.
Reasons why I do not like the rain
1. I do not like the dangers of lightening
2. My dog freaks out when it pours down or thunders
3. I do not like when I am drenched because I have to go somewhere and walk into a freezing cold building
4. When it is cold outside, the only use for rain is to keep the forest fires away!
