Have you ever stopped to wonder why some people are like a sunny day and others are like a rain storm?? It's because the crops need both to grow, no crops no life.. it's not a complicated thing it's just part of it. Enjoy the diversity for what it's worth, we all have our place. Who knows you might just find inspiration from the lest likely of them...

Greetings, Jaded!
Yes, some people really are like a sunny day, while others are the rain storm you talk about. It's the diversity. There are people who are always down, looking at the bad side of everything, even when something good is going on. There are others, though, who learn how to see the bright side in everything, including when they are in trouble. We can learn from both those people. Examples might be good or bad. We can get examples of what we want to be or of what we definitely don't want to become. It's up to us, though, to have the wisdom to judge what are we going to absorb and what are we going to discard. And, while that, we just have to live with the fact that these different personalities create some sort of balance.
Regards!

Life needs that balance. It is what makes it worth living. Without diversity there is nothing new to learn.

That's an interesting way to look at it. I guess we do need all kinds of people.
I'd add that sometimes people have a lot of stuff going on that we don't know about, so if they seem "like a rain storm," there might be a good reason for it. We don't know what struggles other people might be facing.

It really does take all kinds. When i was little i used to say 'if every crayon in the box was the same color we wouldn't have a pretty picture' most times people didnt know how to take it. There is beauty in the bad if you look at it the right way, a simple rain storm can bring a beautiful display of lightening brightening even the darkest of days. Life is about perspective, it will be how one chooses to see it.
