The peace and harmony of rain Options

[*mipadi*]

Having (finally) finished mastering a DVD for a professor's lecture, I am currently sitting in a study area of my university's library, waiting for the professor to come. There is a massive thunderstorm outside. My library has an open, central spiral staircase granting access to all five levels. This atrium is topped with an arched glass roof.

Sitting here, I've found that the sound of the rain hammering the roof, as well as the flashes of light in the background, have a peaceful effect. It's very rhythmic and relaxing. Today was what most would call a dreary day, but I've always liked cloudy, even stormy days—the sense of impending rain builds a palpable tension, and when the rain finally comes, it's with a soothing release of stress. It's been a long week, but I'm quite delighted with the outcome.

How do you feel about rain? Do you prefer sunshine or stormy weather? Or do you like something different, like snow or hail? Does the weather alter your sense of how you feel about the world?

wow, you reminded me so much of one of my friends just then. he loves stormy weather. i really like rain when i just feel the need to sit at home and relax because i like to listen to the rain and look around to watch the rain drops slide off my window. it really is relaxing. sometimes it makes me tired though and that's when i have some of my best naps. i like nice weather though, it enhances my mood
