Do you like the rain? It seems to dampen everybody's spirits. Somehow, I love it.
When it rains, it has a very soothing effect on me when I am in shelter. I remember when I was in primary school, whenever it rained, I would look to the window grilles just outside the class. The way the raindrops form patterns on the grilles just looks so wonderful and magical to me.
Even now, when I see it, it never ceases to amaze me.
However the sad side about rain is that it discourages everyone from going out because they don't want to get wet. This hardly applies to me as I love the rain in all it's entirety. When it is raining and I am outside, I hardly rush as I like the wet feeling. Strange but true. It just feels so good to have water straight from nature to your palms.
You would think someone like me who likes the water would love the sea, however it is not true, sadly. The sea is full of salt and in some cases rubbish and waste. What is there to love I wonder? Yes the sea is full of mysterious creatures and wonders, the sound of the sea and gentle sea breeze is so comfortable. However certain aspects of it just puts me off. Perhaps that's why I was never one of those sand and sea type of guy.
