Rain

“Every time the rain comes down,

Close my eyes and listen.

I can hear the lonesome sound

Of the sky as it cries.”

The lyrics above are taken from the song “it’s in the rain” by one of my favorite singers, Enya.  Rain... yup, today I’m gonna talk about the rain. It’s not Rain, the famous korean actor and singer starred in one of my favorite korean dramas, Full House that I’m talking about but it’s rain that can bring up the atmosphere of different moods like sadness, loneliness, or even happiness. Many people enjoy the rain in different ways, some might look at the rain while listen to a sad song, some might look at it while listen to a happy song or some might catch the falling rain (okay, I think for this one, maybe they run out of water), but most of them also ignore it. Rain is just a normal weather change for them. But for some people, rain might mean something. Somehow, rain can bring the memories back whether it is happiness or sadness. Today, I’m gonna talk about how rain can affect someone’s mood, especially mine.

Just like what I’ve said earlier that rain can bring different moods for every people. I have different feelings everytime the rain comes, sometimes I feel sad, sometimes lonely, but sometimes I also feel happy, it depends on what I have been through before. I guess some people might have felt the same feeling as I am, especially women. You know, most of us like drama and rain can bring this kind of feeling.

            Me, myself has different ways in facing the rain. When I feel sad, I usually listen to the sad music, most of them are the instrumental music but my favorite is “Kiss the Rain” by Yiruma. When I feel happy, sometimes I don’t listen to any music or just watching the rain. I’ll go outside and join the kids around playing under the rain. I bet it must sound silly for someone my age to do that kind of thing but I’m happy doing it, that’s why I don’t care about what people say. Besides, enjoying the rain without really getting into it for me is not enough. Sometimes, you need to do something different even it’s only once. Just like what people said, life is just once, you’ll regret if you don’t do things that you like, of course as long as it is positive thing.

Well, back to the topic, most people believe that rain can bring memories back and  somehow I think it’s true. When I look at the rain, I can see the memories whether it’s happiness or sadness come back to my mind. I don’t know whether it also happens to other people but I believe it does. I also believe that there are also many people who feel the same as I am that rain is not just one of an ordinary things but it is a channel of our emotions, our moods, and also as an inspiration.
