There's something about rain...
It reminds me of being a kid in Florida, convinced I could dodge the raindrops and of watching "Singing in the Rain," never tiring of Gene Kelly's dancing antics...
It brings a smile to my face when I remember how mesmerized I would get whenever it rained in Phoenix (because it hardly ever happened)...
And I have to admit that I get excited for the fact that I finally own a raincoat and rain boots...
But perhaps most of all, rain brings the promise of spring and of beginning again.
"I have no idea where I am going; I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself...But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing. And I know that if I do this, you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always..." -Thomas Merton
I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...
