I Love The Rain

May 8, 2013

Let the rain kiss you
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops
Let the rain sing you a lullaby
The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk
The rain makes running pools in the gutter
The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night
And I love the rain.

    I think the rain is like a struggle in their life, but when it stops, they can see clearer, cause you learn from your struggles, and everything just looks so much more beautiful….

    I love to walk in the forest when it's raining. Most of all I love a good thunderstorm, BUT PREFER TO WATCH AND LISTEN FROM A COY SPOT.

    A clever idea for an animated GIF, and a carefully chosen poem to accompany it. Nice to see a post with some thought in it for a change.

    I love the rain at night, riding my bike in a warm rain is nice, the rain purifies the air and land, and enhances the fragrance of flowers. A saying goes " all sunshine and no rain makes for a dessert "

    Rain is one of my favorite ingredients to a meditative walk / run in the mountains. It seems to make tangible the act of cleansing the mind, body, and soul.
    Let it rain

My Reflection

This site is a tribute to Buddhism. Buddhism has given me a tremendous inspiration to be who and where I am today. Although I came to America at a very young age, however, I never once forget who I am and where I came from. One thing I know for sure is I was born as a Buddhist, live as a Buddhist and will leave this earth as a Buddhist. I do not believe in superstition. I only believe in karma.

A Handful of Leaves

Tipitaka: The pali canon (Readings in Theravada Buddhism). A vast body of literature in English translation the texts add up to several thousand printed pages. Most -- but not all -- of the Canon has already been published in English over the years. Although only a small fraction of these texts are available here at Access to Insight, this collection can nonetheless be a very good place to start.

Problems we face today

Of the many problems we face today, some are natural calamities and must be accepted and faced with equanimity. Others, however, are of our own making, created by misunderstanding, and can be corrected...
