Oh,my god,how could it's raining,damn it.When you forgot to take an umbrella in a rainy day,maybe you will say those words.
Because we don't want to become a drowned rat,at the same time,it's easy to catch a cold.Obviously,it leads to our life inconvenient .so many people dislike rainy day.Let alone take a walk in the rain.
Thus once in the rain,all people are running as fast as possible. It seems the rain is not beautiful as the poem described.Only in my childhood,could i find out the interesting of raining.What about you?
Do you like rainy day?Have you ever taken a walk in the rain?

I do love rainy days.Dark clouds covering the sky make me dance with joy.There was a time when I used to deliberately go out without taking an umbrella or a rain coat when it was raining cats and dogs.At that time I was in my late teens.People watched me in disbelief,but I was careless and go on walking miles.I can't tell you how wonderful an experience it was.

I too want to continue with this habit,but now my wife prohibits me.She says,''No,you will get drenched and fall ill.If you have to go out in the rain,do take an umbrella or wear your rain coat.'She doesn't let me venture out in the rain.Tell me,what I should do.

Ye,it's hard to describe ,especially your feeling at that time.
But i have the similar experience,haha,so i can imagine how happy you were .
Do you still keep this habby now?I haven't such passion when i grown up,i don't know why.
Most time,i prefer to sit somewhere quietly,listening music,and stay alone.
And you?
Have a nice day.\(^o^)/~

Hi xiaopinggai,
I remember in my younger days I used to love rainy days. I would just go out to the big field near my place and start playing in the rain. I would dive into the small puddles which are created due to the uneveness of the field's surface. I would lie on my back and feel the rain water pelting down onto my face. It was so much fun. After the rain I would head home for a shower and felt so refreshed and wonderful. I had never thought about lightning then. Now I'm a little bit wiser and have second thoughts about 'playing' in the rain in a big field.

Well,what's your new thoughts about playing?
If you don't mind it,pls tell me ,i want to know more about yours entertainment.
You know ,sometimes,we felt too tired to create new method to kill the time,so i can learn something from yours,haha.
Have a nice day and keep happy.(?_?)

I love the rain. it doesn't bother me to get wet. Just the other nite, it was pouring when I left work. I had on suede shoes that would have gotten ruined if I had worn them and gotten them wet so I pulled them off and went barefoot instead. I don't own an umbrella because it got stolen out of my car. I agree with the poem. I think the rain is beautiful.

Haha,your umbrella is travelling,good luck to it.(just a kidding,O(n_n)O)
Once after i did some shooping,it was pouring ,but i didn't take my umbrella,so no doubt i become a drenched chicken.That's a bad experience.
But now i miss the rainy day,cos i haven't seen it for a long time.

I don't like rain coz I hate it really when I walk on the street because of splatters that go on my legs. And also, I hate to carry a wet umbrella while strolling in the mall and other places.
I didn't bring an umbrella when I was still going to school. I don't know why, I just don't want to use it. So, I always ended up drenched with rain when I go home.

You reminded me one thing,when a car passed you and splashed all directions,i felt so angry,but i even haven't seen the driver's face.
At that situation,i dislike rainy day too.
But when it's relax time,i will enjoy the time walking in the rain.
I have met many people who won't take umbrella when it's rain just like you,in my mind,there are something in their heart and this become theirs habits,just a guess.
Haha,have a nice day.(*^__^*)

Do people enjoy walking in the rain? I think it depends. It may be romantic to walk in drizzle if we are happy and not busy. Sometimes, we will think it is unnecessary to take a umbrella. Maybe you can invite your girlfriend to walk with you in drizzle, and I believe you will love this excellent feeling.

You are right.It depends.
But if possible,i would like to invite my boyfriend ,haha.And i prefer to take a walk with my girl friends in a sunshine day,we can go shopping and do whatever we want to.
You know,if two girls are walking in drizzle,it's easy to become sad.Because they will think too much at such atmosphere.

I like it when it's raining. The ambiance is quiet. Especially when you're at home and you can see the rain in your window. There are no noises, just the drops of the rain. And its cool. And we love to sleep when its raining.
But if you're outside. Rain really cause bad traffic. A lot of commuters are stranded. But if you're optimistic, dont let the rain drown your mood. Just enjoy the rain. Sometimes it's fun to get wet.

I love having a walk in the rain, but only if I know that I can come home again straight after it. For example, if I am on my way to a meeting then I don't really want to be stuck in the rain because I know that this means that I won't look at my best for the meeting so I won't make a good first impression. But if I know that I am just walking around my local area and that I would be able to go home and have a shower very soon then that would be great. I often get good ideas while I am walking in the rain, and it makes me feel very upbeat for the rest of the day.

Hi,there.
I can imagine the scene you walked in the rain ,haha,it's a beautiful scenery.
When we stay alone,wherever we go,we are close to the nature.
Sometimes we can heard the words from the wind,the rain,even the sunset.
Well,in fact,that's we are talking with our heart.So it's a good chance to think and to get our ideas into shape.
Have a nice day.(*^__^*)

Ever walked in the rain? It's raining here nearly every day so you have less options to stay inside. No I don't like to walk in the rain. Not because of the fact it's wet and cold and you are soaked withing a few minutes and cold till your bones, but because of the fact I have eczema. The rain is biting in the skin of my face and I can assure you it hurts a lot and doesn't look great at all.

Oh,that's terrible.If i live in your city,maybe i am going to become crazy.
Because i am a sensitive person,it's easy to think too much in such weather.
But it's very dry where i am live in.So i am enjoy the rainy day for its rare appearance.
Welcome to Xi'an ,and best wishes to you.O(n_n)O

Walking in the rain is enjoyable if we are just at home resting and relaxing then suddenly the rain fall then inviting to walk under and get wet.
But going to work when the rain suddenly falls yet you dont have any umbrella at all and got wet is really annoying. Then you have extra clothes at the office to change.
Indeed rain is a enjoyable in many ways just depends on how you enjoy it.

Ye,it depends on circumstance.
That's do troublesome when it's raining on your way to work.
At that time,no one will have the mood to enjoy a walk in the rain.Maybe you will hate it comes at a wrong time.Haha/
By the way which way do you like to enjoy the rainny day?
Have a nice day.O(n_n)O

Hi xiao! There's a big difference during our childhood and the present day. During those times, we are really very happy when the rainy season comes. We can play outside under the rain and that was one of my happy moments during childhood. But now rain would mean a disaster. Well, I hope that people can find a way to restore the balance of nature.

Ye,everything is changed since the time past.
We can't go back to our childhoods,for there are many other things we need to concern about now.When it's rainning too heavy,it will become a disaster and lead to lots of people who lived in a bad circumstance lose theirs home and relatives.
But the most happy things are recorded in our heads,that's enough.
Everyday is a new start,keep happy and be thankful.

Haha,agree with you,it's necessary to put a roof on it.
But i think you'd better not cycling,you know,it's a little dangerous.
Anyway,be careful in a rainy day if you want to ride bike.
Best wishes.(*^__^*)
