Got umbrella why don't use?

"Hey you need a shelter?"

"No need, I have umbrella"

"Then why you don't want to use?"

Sigh. How am I going to explain to someone the joys of walking in the rain. Not those cat and dogs kind of rain, not those light drizzles where the rain don't even form drops. Rather, they are heavy enough to make you feel it, but light enough not to wet you.

Walking in the rain, I wouldn't say that it's some spiritual cleansing thing or some maschoistic act. Rather, it's just a special feeling, a special experience. It is different each time, depending on your mood, depending what's on your mind, depending what you are thinking now, depending on the music you are playing into your ear.

then again, why is something so magical and simple, such simple joy, spoiled by people rationalising the dirt behind it?

sigh.
