You wake up in the morning only to discover it is pouring down rain. What will you do?? Simply because it's pouring down rain when you wake up doesn't mean it's going to be a bad day. Some of my best days were on rainy days. We do have a choice how we view things. We can see everything as negative or we can see the Positive in all around us. So when I wake up only to discover it's pouring down rain, I smile. Ah yes, today we are going to have Liquid Sunshine. Without water, life wouldn't exist on Earth. Ah yes, it's going to be a Wonderful day. How about you?? Getting any Liquid Sunshine at your house??

I would want to get back to sleep and forget about getting to the office... Alas, I still need money to eat...

Ah yes, cozy and warm on that dark morning with the gentle sound of rain. How many times can I hit that snooze button. You are right. They will all need to see our warm smile with our love and kindness at work. Rain can make some grumpy. We are going to have to shine some light in their eyes.

Well now, you know how we men are. We live to be teased. Maybe you are right. Maybe a little nap might do us all some good.

Most likely the other way around. I would be the grumpy person getting to the office and they would cheer me one way or another, of course after I teased them mercilessly...

Sunshine does have a way of making everyone feel better. I bet that garden just loves those rainy days.

Hi bird: I think that's a cool way to see things. But I don't think it could work with me because I don't think a day is going to be bad because it's raining but at the same time I feel sad for having a rainy day because I will feel sleepy and i would not want to get out of my bed ALVARO

I'm not a morning person either. It's tough getting out of bed in the morning. I can see where it can be even harder if it's dark with the gentle sound of rain. Still, there is a big beautiful world out there needing us to interact with it everyday. WE can get a cat nap the next time we watch TV. Probably won't really miss anything on TV anyway.

Liquid Sunshine,you really have a soaring imagination.Yes we do need both sunshine and rain and not a single one of them can be dispensed with.However ,for them ,different person, different view.The farmers will be full of joy if it rains after a long drought while some people just associate rain with grief or complain that the heaven doesn't cooperate with them in their going on a sightseeing tour.

Still, we should all be Happy. Life would not exist without a bit of rain in our lives.

Rains are like blessings. I like it when it rains because it propels the hot weather here in our country. But what i dont like when the rain starts to pour is that i could not go out without umbrella or a decent coat. Rains are good if you have nowhere to go to but if you are about to go and suddenly it pours, it will be a hustle unless you have your own car which i dont have.

Yes, there have been plenty of times I ended up damp around the edges, however it could never dampen my spirit. I know someone else would need to see a cheerful face on such a wet day. I am more than happy to supply that smile.

So, you are getting a little frozen sunshine. Snow makes travel hard. On the other hand it's fun to watch all those snowmen pop up around town. Many have much more talent making snowmen than I, however each one is unique and it's the effort that counts.

Yes, there is nothing like the smell of rain. Watching it rain from a nice cozy warm dry place is great too. Nature can put on a show.

Liquid sunshine :) I love it.. I love rainy days, I love stormy days and yes I have to agree just because it's a rainy day doesn't mean its going to be a bad day. I agree though people make what their day is, maybe not always because some things are out of our control but I believe that when I wake up and it's raining that I can choose to either let the dreariness of the weather get to me or I can make it a good day smile and have a great night. Great post by the way. And again "Liquid Sunshine" loove it
