I live in a rainforest. It rains a lot. It can rain on and off for four to six months with some years worse than others. So, I was pleasantly surprised when I awoke this morning to see the rising sun.
It immediately puts me in a good mood. It’s strange how a sunny day can perk one’s mood up. One can really appreciate it when it’s happening is a rare event. I guess absence does make the heart grow fonder, or in this case, make one appreciative for the simple thing of a sunny day.
I guess it is just human nature to take things for granted, but I sure appreciate the sunny disposition I feel. I’ll take it when I can get it.
