Today was another day full of rain. At first I was disappointed because I had really enjoyed being able to ride my bike again. Also, I had been loving the cool, sunny weather.

I decided to walk to school. I was reminded of the time when I lived on the other side of campus and would walk to school in the rain. How had it been so long since I'd done this?

Of course, it proved to be wonderful. On the way home I found myself full of playfullness. I sang along to my music and danced down the sidewalk. I stopped along the curb and stood with my feet in the water when it was traveling especially fast..

I approached the intersection near my house and stood on the corner, bopping my head to my tunes, waiting for the light to change. Right at the moment when I had really drifted off, a giant truck drove by and splashed water all along the front of me.

I found myself laughing before I had even fully realized what had happened.

I'm smiling now just thinking about it.

Not because it's funny.. for another reason. Not sure even what words would describe it. But I'm glad it happened. It's nice to be reminded of this childlike side of life.
