Be(ing) Happy

There’s a shift when warm summer rains turn cold. They become dreary, feel heavier. These days are not often "happy" days. However, I always try to choose to love the light that filters through the cloud layer, to be happy in the knowledge that the rain is nourishing the green growth that is to come and by choosing to be content in the fact that, if not for the bad days, we would appreciate the good days less.
