Alone with the Rain and Old Memories | 26 June,2025
Greetings to all. Today too I have come to share some of my thoughts with you.
It is raining outside. I am sitting at my study table next to the window in my room. I am trying to study but I am not concentrating at my study. Now is not the time to concentrate. Whenever it rains, I get distracted. I remember the old days. I remember one day I got wet in the rain, when I was in high school. I have never been so happy with the rain that I was having that day. Once when it rained, I would open the window and watch the leaves of the trees outside dance. From my window, I could see the thunder in the distant sky, some people would go to the field to bring their cows. Some boys and girls, small, would play with the rain. They would run, I would do the same, but now I am not old enough to play in the rain. I have passed that age long ago. Sometimes I would write letters in this rain, not to a lover, but to myself. Although it may sound strange, it is true, in those letters the plans for the coming days would be written. I used to write diaries, now when I read those diaries I laugh to myself, wondering if I really wrote them? These are my handwriting!?
Everything is not the same. I didn't understand love then, I didn't even have feelings for anyone, yet when it rained I would cry, I didn't even understand why I was crying.
The rain outside was pouring harder, it felt like it would break through the tin roof and enter inside. I was alone in my room. Right now, I can't remember anything because of the sound of the rain.
On rainy days, the memories in my mind also started flowing out with the sound of the rain. There is a pattern of rainfall here, at first it will rain a little, then it will increase gradually, at one point it will start pouring, the pouring rain will not last long, maximum 5 or 6 minutes, then the rain will stop completely. When it rains, there is thunder, but during the rainy season, it is very good that there is no thunder. Then the water collects on the roads and the streets, frogs start calling. Frogs seem to be the happiest during the rainy season.
The rain has gradually subsided, everything is back to normal.
