It's pouring rain outside right now, and it is uniquely beautiful. This observation sparked an idea in my mind that I would reflect on how beautiful the imperfections of this world could be. Of course I think a beaming sun on an island with palm trees and colorful flowers is beautiful, but I enjoy digging deeper and finding the beauty in objects and situations that people don't typically view as being admirable. Like rain for instance. Normally, people complain about the weather being cloudy and rainy, but I find much joy in it. Rain represents nourishment in my mind, and that is exactly what it is doing. It is nourishing the Earths soil, all of the plant's roots, every dried up tree, and quenching our thirst for nature's waters. One of my favorite songs is a song called "Every Time it Rains" by Charlotte Martin, and she says it best. She sings "Every time it rains, I know it's good to be alive." I love this quote because instead of relating rain to sadness and depressive thoughts, she is relating it to living life and putting a hopeful spin on it. She is utilizing the beauty of rain, and this is what I deem most important.
In relation to humans, I always try and find the beauty in everyone and every situation I encounter. Whether someone gave me a difficult time or if someone broke my heart, there is always a lesson to be learned that will serve a purpose and be beneficial to my future. It is because of these imperfect situations that something beautiful blossoms and blooms, and I am witness to this being true.
Point being... look at things, people, and situations in a different light to see the beauty and purpose of it. Even if you don't see if right away..... it's there.
