“ Rain or shine, everything must go on.” My late grandmother never tires reminding me of this seemingly popular cliché. Moreover, it keeps ringing in my ears, never hunting, but instead, inspiring this once “little” girl, of the road that lies ahead. Although this maybe true, I love the rain and hate the sun but at times, I favor having sunshines than rainshowers.

When sunny days appear, there’s always a moment’s peace whom is sacredly calm and still, sprouts in my heart. I could smell how refreshing and relaxing the morning breeze is. I can hear the music of nature, welcoming the new day, moreover, a new start. When the blue skies and sun commence, my worries are swept away, and though unsure of the day’s surprises, there’s always enjoyment in its purest sense. I could envision through the clouds promises that are always worth the wait. Furthermore, in the gleaming rays, I can see my dreams. Sunny days give me a sense of optimism, of worth and of hope.

On the other hand, Earth cannot sustain life with sunshines alone; it needs rainshowers and cloudy skies. Rain may literally get us muddy, dirty and wet but the rain keeps our feet on the ground. The rain may halt us from doing work, not because it hinders, but once in a while, it wants us to stop and think before we act, to reminisce the past and to internalize what is right and wrong. Rainy days may make some parts of our lives cold, dark and dreary, however, into each life, some rain must fall. Some days must be dark and dreary. It makes us stronger. The rain could sympathize because it’s an emotion. A droplet is scarcely enough to mist your face but undeniably, it touches you somewhere, but when it comes pouring down, the emotion overcomes you.

Though sunny days and rainy days are definitely opposite, don’t they make a perfect pair? Sunny days inspire while rainy days strengthen. Sunshines help envision our dreams whereas raindrops make us remember who and what we are. Sunny days give us hope meanwhile rainy days make us realize our emotions. Therefore, both of them help us realize the value of life. Hence, when you’re drenched by this rain, pain might seem unbearable, but behind the clouds, the sun is still shining. There’s always a hope that after every rain, the sun would always shine, to drown with happiness all one’s bitterness.
