In the spring rain, the pond and the river become one. Into every life some rain must fall. Usually when your car windows are down.

Let the rain sing you a lullaby.

Langston Hughes

Daisaku Ikeda

Rain is grace; rain is the sky descending to the earth; without rain, there would be no life.

Be praised for all Your tenderness by these works of Your hands, suns that rise and rains that fall to bless and bring to life Your land. Look down upon this winter wheat and be glad that You have made blue for the sky and the color green that fills Your fields with praise.
