Do you like rain?

rain - a picture of rain - basically droplets of water falling onto a puddle.

Hey my fellow mylotters, simple yet interesting question if you ask me. I just wanted to know if you guys liked rain, the matter of tiny raindrops falling on you could be pleasant or could be irritating at times... Also you might hate rain because it wets your clothes on a rainy day.. or maybe you like having wet clothes :). Anyways a bit off topic but, here is a fact about rain: If it's raining and you don't have an umbrella and you don't want to get wet, it's better if you walk through rain then run to your destination :). So :O Do you like rain?! :) Regards, Borg245

I like the rain not the strong rain like that of typhoon. I like rain especially this past few days and its very hot here in my country. We have rain but it is just a result of cloudseeding. I like rain as it sometimes brings cold air. I love rain during the night and you are sleeping. I like rain as it brings my memory of childhood, because before i always wait for the rain and I run everywhere just to feel the rain.

Hi Grecychunny, Same with you i like rain but not typhoon or storm. it is destructive unlike rain it's refreshing. It's also romantic. lovers love it when it rains. they share one umbrella and walk hand in hand while walking. I too had an experience having fun with the rain when i was a kid.

Dear friend, I do love rain, it a part of nature, moreover as too much of any thing is too bad. Too much of rain too creates problems. I like occasional rains especially during summer. At times rain gives me some sort of romantic feelings. Also I had fallen love with some beautiful rains.

In Florida, I liked walking in the light rains, but it wasn't without peril since Florida is the lightning strike capital of the world. Even if you didn't hear thunder or see lightning, it wasn't unusual for people to get hit by lightning when it was miles and miles away. Here in PA, it's either too cold or too harsh most of the time. But, I do enjoy a good thunderstorm, while I'm sitting safely inside, reading or playing board games with my family.

Yes, definitely, I like rains. Rain also gives us water to drink, food to eat, and ponds to swim in.And in all those things we see the loving hand of the Creator. I like rain, and the smell of rain as well. In my city, when it's raining, the whole traffic messed up which I really don't like but as usual if you just ask about rain then of course I love raining especially when it is sun and raining.

I still remember my school days when I used to enjoy rain while coming back cycling. It was a great fun we had with friends, i have not met many of those friends but when I remember rain they all are like in front of me. I would enjoy this rainy season with someone special. Waiting for rain to start and I am on :)

If you walk through the rain, you'll definitely get wet. How is that possible? Not getting wet on a rainy day without an umbrella? :) Anyway, I love rain as long as it is moderate. Very hard rain could be a hassle sometimes especially if you're going somewhere and you just can't afford to get wet. I love cool weather and that only happens here during the rainy season.

I suppose when you're inside and looking out it can be quite nice but I hate when i am out in it. Ive never understood people who actually make a point of going to walk in the rain because they like it. I hate it when I get wet, especially my hair.

Hi Borg, It's summer here in my country and it is soooo warm, everyone is praying for some rain to fall. I like rain when it's just good enough to water the plants, wet the ground, pour enough water on water reservoirs for public consumption...all the good things rain brings. On September last year a very heavy rain caused terrible floods in my country, it has actually sank almost all of the major cities and neighboring provinces. It did drown the first level of my house for at least 2 days. So thinking about it, I sort of have a love-hate relationship with rain.

I do like to watch the rain falling and the water flowing through the gutters, down the street and through my yard, but I do not like to be caught out in it. Two weeks ago I had to compete in the rain in an archery competition. I was soaked to the bone! We have had an incredible amount of rain here so far this year. Out of the 3 months that have passed so far, we have probably only had about two weeks worth of days without any rain at all. There have been massive floods with billions of dollars damage throughout this region this year. It has been amazing! Lots of animals have lost their lives due to the flooding too, which has been really sad.

I would be a lot more fond of rain if I had not seen so much of it as of late. There is just something about rain that saps my strength. The dark clouds come up, the rain comes down and it is just dismal. I yawn, am tired, and I struggle to find even the remotest amount of desire to do anything. So I am not the biggest fan of rain but that's more to the fact that it happens so often. I am glad when the sun is out and those clouds clear. No more rain for a bit of time anyway. A little rain can go a long way for me. I can stand it happening every now and again. But when it rains every day for like a week, that's where I have to personally draw the line. So really, I am not a huge fan of a lot of rain. Some I can tolerate but not a whole lot.

I usually like rain but now I really hated it, its almost raining every day I miss sun. It really cold here because raining every day, I must bring umbrella where ever I go, I can not use my white shoes or other shoes that make from leather or fabric, they will filled with mud. Flood also happen in few area. I wish rain will stop soon.

I remember playing in the rain as a child. And I love the smell of rain. Don't mind getting a little bit wet, in a sprinkle...but wouldn't want to get in a heavy rain storm.

The rain doesn't bother me, it's nice for the area as it cools things down and makes things feel peaceful. I don't very often take an umbrella out with me, in fact I believe my father as stole mine. I really should get one, as both my children have Mr Men and Little Mrs one's which are very cute. I tend to like walking in the rain when it isn't so bad, when it's slinging it down it can get very sticky and although I don't mind it kind of spoils things when your walking far. Happy Mylotting, ~Joey

I appreciate getting wet and all that...:p I'm talking about the rain. It brings me a different sense of joy, a different kind from the sunshine. I do appreciate both really. I think I generally appreciate water or H20 because I'm a water sign - My zodiac sign is Pisces..well that's what they say, its element is the water so, I just figured that out lol.

I love the rain, especially when it rains early in the morning. It really brightens my mood. I really like the sound of the rain coming down to the ground, I don't know about you guys but the sound of the rain really sounds peaceful to me,I would close my eyes and listen to the rain drops.
