Beautiful Rain
My director Kenneth & his wife Agnes couldn’t make it to WCC this year because they were having a retreat for our long-termers. Today at lunch…
Kenneth: So it rained all WCC, huh?
Me: Yep, beautiful rain.
Kenneth: Oh? What made the rain beautiful?
Me (in a dreamy tone): Well, to me, rain just IS beautiful.
Kenneth: (confused silence)
Agnes: To romantics, rain is always beautiful. But to practical people, rain never is.
i guess that makes me impractical. =) i thought the rain falling down during wcc was simply glorious… it’s kinda what makes the experience.

i would think practical people in drought might just find rain beautiful. ha ha.
haha. i’m practical, so the only reason i love the rain is that i can get a free car wash. haha. i can totally picture kenneth going, “huh?” kenneth is so funny, unintentionally… are they back now? tell them i said hi!
