Its raining right now. Makes me think of this.
“There are a hundred things she has tried to chase away the things she won't remember and that she can't even let herself think about because that's when the birds scream and the worms crawl and somewhere in her mind it's always raining a slow and endless drizzle.
You will hear that she has left the country, that there was a gift she wanted you to have, but it is lost before it reaches you. Late one night the telephone will sign, and a voice that might be hers will say something that you cannot interpret before the connection crackles and is broken.
Several years later, from a taxi, you will see someone in a doorway who looks like her, but she will be gone by the time you persuade the driver to stop. You will never see her again.
Whenever it rains you will think of her. ”
Its a quote by Neil Gaiman. Rain does that to you. Makes you nostalgic about a million things that have happened while still making you eerily calm.
And whenever it rains I think of this. This quote. Thats all.

Yes, rain certainly does that to you. You know the overused scene in movies with the rain-stained window? That actually is a very powerful image that conjures up memories in real life.
ReplyDeleteTotally Agreed. Every time I see those images, it takes me back too. And its not always happy; the memories that rain stained windows lead one to.
