Rain

It's raining outside. I extended my hand through the window. Rain is my favorite. I know it's a favorite of all, not just me. The sound of drizzle takes away my mind. But the sound could not be found inside the building. In fact sometimes it’s not felt that raining outside. If you look out the window then you will realise that it is raining.

My mom never let me get wet in the rain. Because whenever I got soak in rain water, I used to suffer from cold, cough and fever. So my parents strictly forbade me to get wet in the rain. I really wanted to. Sometimes I cried a lot for getting wet in the rain. But still my mother did not let me. At that time I used to look out the window and see the rain. Sometimes I would see a lot of little kids getting wet in rain water. They are playing together in the rain. Maybe these are dirty water but still they're enjoying. I liked to see the view through the window.

When I was a little older, my mother would not forbid me. Then I would go to the terrace and get soak in the rain. It would be wrong to say that I used to enjoy alone. We all siblings would get up on the terrace and get wet together. Those days are not really to be forgotten. This beautiful memories of the past make our present more beautiful.

Now I am mature enough. Maybe I can do whatever I want. But now, I don't enjoy those things like before. With age, desires may become mature. Now life seems to have become mechanical. We do a lot in case of need but forgetting to make time for ourselves. That's why we may get exhausted in a little while. But if we make time for ourselves then maybe we will be able to enjoy life more.
