It’s a rainy night and rainy nights make me dreamy and introspective.  Here are a few of my favorite quotations about rain.  Let’s not let rain get us down but help us appreciate the good days and the not so good:

I love to run when it’s misting outside.  It is exhilarating!! Anyone who says that only sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain. (Grading Girl’s own)   :-)

God didn’t promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. (author unknown but it is so beautifully true)

The best thing one can do in the rain is to let it rain. (Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, 19th Century American poet ~ well said)

I believe in running through the rain and crashing into the person you love and having your lips bleed on each other. (Billy Bob Thorton ~ I loooove this!)

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky. (Rabindranath Tagore, Indian poet ~ a wonderful way to look at struggles in our lives)

We will never be an advanced civilization as long as rain showers can delay the launching of a space rocket. (George Carlin ~ too funny!)

It will never rain roses:  when we want more roses we must plant more trees. (George Eliot , English Victorian poet ~ makes me stop and think)

So let it rain!  What do you do on a rainy day when cooped up inside?!?
