The rain - happy mother's day!

Spring is the time when flowers start blooming and the birds singing. Sun will shines brightly and green grass spread beautifully across the lawn. But then again, once in awhile the rain will pour down heavily throughout the day.

And so my life. I love rain as it provide water to the earth. Scientifically human body is made of 70 to 80 percent of water. That's the reason water is so important. Alright! Back to the original matter, I am actually using the rain as the metaphor. In life, there are happy and sad moment. Rain is usually associate with sadness.

But I really love rain. It just bring me back to the moment of naivety. As a child I used to play under the rain. My brothers and me made small boats from papers and let it flowed with the water. We sang. We danced. Our parents would then scolded us for playing under the rain, worried that we would fall sicked. Sometimes we were. My mom would prepared something hots as snack. I still love the black coffee and simmering tapioca with grind coconut. I missed the moment.

Happy mother's day. Happy parents day. Thank God for giving me the opportunity to live in this world and to receive the biggest love of all, mother's love.
