Rain, Rain Don't Go Away, But Let the Sun Shine Through

The rain has fallen for nearly one week.  There has been moments during this duration where depression did a tap dance on my soul.  Suddenly a brief glimpse of the sun broke through and I felt as though I could breath again and a smile grew on my face.
After that, periods of showers greyed the skies, but I knew the sun was only sleeping and immediately broke out of my gloom.  Today the sun is shinning in all its glory and the anemic flowers are bursting with life and color. There was egg on my face all right!  Imagine being sad because its raining?  I felt so foolish.
When I looked around and saw life right in front of me, a lesson was learned.

 I will dance in the rain as I celebrate the gift.  My beautiful garden is alive with spectacular colors . 
My children grew and I am now thankful for the bequest of rain.
I kissed my flowers one by one and told them I was sorry for my selfishness.
There was a great lesson learned.  When I am in a egotistical mood, I will step back, take a breath so I don't turn blue.  My little girl has finally learned to share!
