R.A.I.N.

Tonight it was pouring rain.

I went to bed and was all set to listen to the rain.

Jeron came in and said "Why don't you go out and play in the rain?"

He knows I love the rain.

Back in High school I would opt to walk home on rainy days.

Jeron left the bedroom and I thought about what he suggested.

Within seconds I was getting re-dressed and headed outside with my camera.

Considering I needed a P.O.T.D. I realized this was my chance.  

I loved it.

I splashed in puddles.

I ran in the pouring down rain.

I danced a little. ( I put Elanie to shame.)

I SMILED!  Really Smiled...all by myself

When I came back in I checked out the photos that I took on automatic.

This picture is the perfect picture to sum up how I have been feeling lately. 

So much of me is fading away.

I feel like I am bending, pulling, pushing, tossing, turning...

but still so much of me is fading away.

I pull to get me back

yet I push to find what else I want

letting go and moving on

I see myself in the young girl I use to be

yet I want so much more for the woman I am becoming.

Tossing and turning to keep it all

A true reflection of me...

Thank you Jeron for reminding me to be me.
