When it rains it pours.
I always resented how much this phrase resonated with my life, now finally I have come to love it. My heart has always belonged in the desert and just like I feel like the landscape of my soul is blue skies and red rock the weather that shapes my landscape also resonates here. When it rains in my life it really, really pours. It's a struggle I have come to love nothing gets me out of my shell more than having floods rising up. "When it rains it pours" is a great way to figure out what is worth keeping in life the things that stay are what really matter. After the storms are gone it makes me see my life perfectly clear. Life is full of drops of rain for most but I go against the grain and for that I am grateful. Grateful that when the rain comes down on me it washes everything of unimportance away keeping me on the path I am meant to be on. It carves the river of my desires, helps me reach for all the things higher than where my banks are currently stuck at. I ask for help to let me know which direction this river needs to go, in those moments I am the closest to Him. The river has flooded its banks for a few hours and in that moment I can see what is really here. You are here, my friends are here, my family is here and my dreams of my future family are here guiding me through the pouring. So let it pour and let me gain the confidence of what matters to me and who I truly matter too. Trials don't have to be the death of me instead they are what bring life into this soul. I see it is pouring now and the clouds have covered up the physical. All I am left with is the dreams and the aspirations of what I want my life to be like. When the rain does stop it will give me the growth and the power I need to climb to a higher level of empathy and love towards others. LET IT RAIN, BUT FORGET THE SNOW(please dont snow).
