Rain

I love rain in certain situations. When sitting at home with a hot cup of tea, rain is great. Walking in the rain, on the other hand, is terrible. I can’t hold an umbrella with my right hand. Its position is wrong, so I end up not protecting anything. I can’t hold it with my left hand, since then I won’t be able to hold my phone or protect myself if I fall.

There’s really no clever, heartwarming solution. Sometimes I end up getting wet in the rain. I try to remember to grab my jacket or coat before I embark on any long journey. If I’m lucky, I also remember to put on my boots, and my socks don’t get wet. But that’s it. I’m just walking, step by step, trying not to slip, while feeling the raindrops on my clothes.
