Where I live on Earth, it rained all day. The sky was grey, and the air smelled like rain. That one smell that when you smell it you know it's either going to rain,it is raining,or it did rain. The grey sky seems to slowdown the regular fast pace of society. Rainy days have a way of making me look inward and reflect. The song that seems to articulate this particular emotion with me is "Stranger in Moscow". Rainy days in a way bring home the point that no matter how steady and permanent things appear, change can happen. Who would have believed that water would actually be falling down and the sky become darkened and grey, when for so long it was consistently blue and dry. Who would have believed that I would actually live the ideal, when for so long I was consistently alone and disappointed.
