A woman from the land of sun bought a copy of the rain book. I wonder if it will work in her mind and heart while reading it where there is no rain. Perhaps it doesn’t matter. Maybe that book was really one big fat metaphor. <\/p>\n
I just returned from a long walk in rain and my thoughts of projects, people and possibilities were raining through me. <\/p>\n

Something interesting is always happening to me and I suppose I’ll still want to share it with the few reader who are reading this. <\/p>\n\n
