Rain Sounds

Theres something so wonderful about sitting inside, knowing you dont have to go out anywhere, but staying where you are and listening to the rain outside. Its calming and heart warming.

So I woke up this morning hearing the rain, yet again, its been raining for what feels like so long now here in London and whilst things are lovely and green, and our garden like a teeny forest for faerie folk, its been tiring. But not today, today it sounds good, perhaps because I know I dont have to go out until later. So I put the kettle on and settled down with my tea to write to you.

I guess its the little things, like being able to have time to enjoy listening to the rain, to have time to notice the beauty in things, slowing things down and stepping away from the ‘to-do’ list, that helps to remind us of other forces that affect our lives. These forces are bigger than any worries we have, and they’re constants so, although annoying as it can be, I think its good to take time to stop sometimes, to take time to breathe and to appreciate the sound of the rain. x
