Living In A Raindrop.

Is it really as bad as it seems?

”I don’t like it here” he complained.

He doesn’t like it there, he is afraid.

Everywhere he turns it’s constant rain.

Everything he feels is drenched, cold with pain.

It’s never warm nor is it ever dry where he resides.

He always appears to be desperately drowning,

Deep sea diving...

Can’t get to land, even if he tries.

“Why is it so stagnant here?” He asks.

Thirsty for an understanding; he decides to take a drink from the terror filled downpour of damp, torrential trickles he was surrounded by.

Instantly his eyes became significantly bigger in size!

By making the conscious decision to consume and connect to his surroundings,

It led him to a new founding.

All of a sudden, he realises he was never drowning, but infact being washed.

He was no longer being inconveniently drenched!

He was being conveniently nourished from unwanted stench!

His eyes had opened and his dehydrated mind... was quenched.

Brainwashed by all the negatives,

He was blind to all his advantages.

He missed the chance to make his seeds grow,

Because he failed to realise the importance of the atmosphere he was living in; H2O.

He was rich but didn’t know,

He concentrated on the glass being half empty instead of half full.

His perspective was off so he could never get what he wanted to have,

He ignored the good so he always received the bad.

Study what you see around you,

You will learn that it all means much more than you originally thought it had!

“I love it here!” He now says.

He loves it there, he is never afraid.

Everywhere he turns, it’s constant opportunity.

He is no longer lost, he has found gratitude and unity.

“Even with our needs met, we stress out over our wants” Be Thankful.
