REFLECTING ON RAINDROPS
Reflecting on raindrops
Raindrops are divine process displayed. Their fateful fall to earth being process applied.
So too is our appreciation, our admiration of each raindrops' critical role in our own life cycle.
Lest we jet away too soon from rain to man, let us tarry, inquire :
What is the life of a raindrop ? Who or what are its parents? Where and when was it born? How did it mature? What rites of passage define it? Where else has it been? What experiences has it endured. What pressures has it felt? How did it learn that its fate is to fall to barren earth?Whence came rain's obedience?
Anon! Divine droplets descend invigorated by wind. A bending whirling din, of dark diaspora.
