On rain

It will likely rain they say.

This weekend is predicted to be one of ceaseless rain.

It’s not bad I think. I like the rain it’s cold.

I like seeing the street lights reflected on the flooded streets and I like feeling the rain on myself like a shower. Like having a shower while dressed.

I don’t understand or care much for umbrellas but I think that’s partially because I’m not wearing mascara. Mascara will run 🏃‍♀️ down the face and create dramatic effects like on a goth CD cover when it’s raining. Although beautiful it’s a very niche look which often is not appropriate.

I think it’s appropriate with rain and it’s appropriate to walk around getting wet in the cold rain, to let the water soak and cleanse body and soul. To feel something. Like the discomfort it causes feels good for the soul the same way training feels good for the body.

Sometimes it feels bad.
