I am reading the book called the Alchemy of Desire. Perfect book to read lazily in a rainy afternoon. It is capable of creating nostalgia when you go through it. The description of rain in the mountain side and wind and dark clouds all will take you to a very depressing, dull mood. The main female character Fizz, I see as a thin fair female with very curly hair. It has been a long time since I read anything.
This season is of doing nothing other than routine stuff.
It is raining on and off here. I wish if there was rain from evening or even late night till morning. Then let there is be sun light in the mornings so the people can go about their life without getting soaked or cursing the rain. Will it be possible to have a perfect rain schedule fixed? As usual the rain is brining an unavoidable depressing mood along with it. I like this mood though, a little bit sad for no reason. But the moment the sun rays peek through the clouds this sadness also melts away, no trace of a dull day at all. No matter how sad I might feel, I love rain season. I am hopelessly in love with rain. Not the all destroying rain accompanied by thunder and lightning and mudslides. But with the soft type that just keeps a steady rhythm throughout the night and welcomes you to a fresh start in the mornings. I love when the rain brings a clean feeling all around, I love the extra richness of leaves it brings, the freshness of flowers it brings, I love the wet soil underneath my bare feet after a heavy rain. I love this rain that washes away all the impurities. A rainy morning is the best thing I can wish for once I get up. The sound of raindrops outside is something that can make me feel so fresh in a second.
It also takes me to a lot of different memories. Some memories are just vague pictures. Sometimes it brings me to the story of Hansel and Gretel and the small hut made of cookies, chocolates and candies inside a forest just after a rain and two kids looking at the house. The memories of seeing a program on Mawsynram I think, in Discovery channel and the man who was sitting in front of his house looking at the rain with a face that shows no interest in the things around him often comes to my mind. I am in love with the rain.
Let me change the lyrics for the time being and sing -let it rain let it rain let it rain….
