To my child,

  it's raining so I can't watch the clouds today.

  I tried meditating, but I was distracted by the rain. It was relaxing. Since nothing is happening I spent hours just enjoying the sound of the rain on the roof and against the walls.

  Rainy days like this, days when the sky seems to be falling down, have always been my favorite. Cuddling around the fire with a blanket and a hot cup of tea is the only thing you can do in this weather.

  Unless you're a soldier or a guard. The nice guard was soaked when he brought food this morning.
