rainy day

today was a monsoon of a rainstorm. and who do you think got caught in it on her lunch break?

yours truly (wearing white).

however, i did meet another unfortunate girl who decided to wear a white tee today. we stood outside jamba juice for approx 3 minutes sipping our smoothies and waiting for some gap in the downpour (which didn't occur). it was during that time that i noticed how she was watching the sheets of rain like it was the best thing she had ever seen in her life. she was completely amused that she was caught in a rainstorm while running her errands. and for that short time, i too got a kick out of the predicament i was caught in. yes, i was a little cold and slightly annoyed that i hadn't checked weather.com this morning to advise me on my attire. but, that random jama juicin girl inspired me to take joy in the those moments that catch you off guard.

here is another girl who was caught wearing white on a rainy day.

i do think her predicament was slightly a bigger deal that mine earlier today. although it is dreamy having a stormy-weathered wedding, isn't it?

"not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. and hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."
