11/20/10 Optimistic



I loved looking out the window this morning to see it still raining. On the way to work I laughed and shook my head at all my fellow Californians, who forget every year without fail how to drive in the rain. I saw several rainbows throughout the day. But my mind kept wandering to the ocean. It's been a while since I've gone there and let the sea air and crashing waves clear my head. I like the ocean when it's stormy and alive. As long as I'm not on a boat that is. My good mood was triggered I believe by receiving my wish for a rainy day, but it didn't stop there. I was saying to my Dad over dinner, "I miss thunder and lightning storms" and almost immediately there was a flash of lightning. I'm still having trouble sleeping so I'm pretty sure the painting will not affect it at this point, but the calming, soothing value is still there. Now up late again and true to my nature I'm having that hot tea, wrapped in a warm blanket listening to the rain.
