The smell of rain

After many days of sweltering temperatures and failed attempts at rain, we welcomed the tiny drops as they pounded on the rooftops and filled the potholes. I opened the doors and windows to let in the sweet smell of the rain.

I know there are many in the world who would love to see the end of the rain and sunshine again, but today I was glad to see rain.

In days when things are so unpredictable, I take every minute to be greatful for the blessings and today I am greatful for a little rain and a cool breeze.
