Days that say yes,
like lights which buzz,
like sacred rain.
~ Olga Orozco, from “The Game is Up” (Les Jeux Sont Faits) tr. by Elaine Stirling in “Engravings Torn from Insomnia: Selected Poems”
Notes:
- Photo: Rain Room. Quote: Liquid Light and Running Trees
- Post Title & Inspiration: Aldous Huxley: “It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.”
Oh yes…

Soon we will enter that phase where everything dries out, way too much and rain will become sacred once more. I try for only YES days, but some days it’s more difficult than others.

Let’s hope there is never a day when there isn’t rain.
