Your plans get canned due to the rains and matches get rescheduled. Rain woes are many, but in no way do they match up to the abundance of joy and beauty they fill our lives with. The pitter-patter walks nimbly straight into the heart. It is difficult to explain in words the kind of exhilarating joy the rains bring. But you'll discover it for yourself in these simple little ways:

Stay in bed

Rains give you the best reason to excuse yourself from work or classes. Turn your alarm clock off and go back to sleep, or even better, laze in bed and watch the rain from your window.

Play football in the rain

For once, don’t play to win. Play for the joy of playing. Get together with friends, or strangers, and enjoy the exhilaration of playing football barefoot on a muddy maidan as the rains soak your being.
