Seating here chatting with fellow mylotters and hearing the sound of the rain - priceless. Simple things, yet, it melts your stress away(just for a while).

I like that too, in autumn time, when is cold outside, and you stay home where is warm, but you hear the rain falling, is so relaxing, i like it so much. I like autumn generally, because it makes me melancholic, and sometimes i like to be melancholic.

It calms you somehow. Brings back memories too.

yes, raindrops can be a stress buster. There are really simple things that can relieve stress or can make you forget your worries for quite some time...a smile from a child is another one...=)

Maybe it is the child within you that calms you when you hear the rain. I remember how happy I was then, playing in the rain together with my friends.

You can even find a cd of falling rain for those times when it isn't raining.

That's really awesome pinoycity. You have just illustrated that the simple thing in life like this is just as meaningful. The kick from smelling the rain can just be twice to move you.

Thanks tomi. We really should, sometimes, stop and take notice of simple things around us.

Yes, life is enjoyable if we learn to appreciate the "little things". I've heard that the sound of water is a good therapy to stress.

You're right. Some spa clinic uses flowing water sound as therapy.

This is so true. Right now, I'm on my break from work and chatting here in MyLot while drinking my favourite soda. So simple yet it rocks.

as a matter of fact , i enjoy rainy days partly because i enjoy the atmosphere.rain means something.it is holy and can dust every thing.rain makes me lost in deep thought . rain can refresh the earthly world .rainbow always goes hand in hand with a heavy rain.
