Adding to the list of tea,pakoda, a fine novel would make it a awesome combination.......syed ahamed saqihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12671650544892773612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928213105163544522.post-64128044201561137522009-07-20T00:35:48.193-07:002009-07-20T00:35:48.193-07:00One can learn a lot from a child..and your post ju...One can learn a lot from a child..and your post just proved that! Patience truly is a great virtue..and gratitude to the Almighty is shown in so many ways. Even though there was such an outpoor of rain, the delight on the faces of those who have had their prayers answered is evident. We all should see the good in everything. Many ask HIM for something, once he showers them.. they forget and start whining and complaining..still not being happy. <br /><br />Thanks for The Enlightening Post Hun..Much Love, Sandy :)Vancouver, Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283369536398941348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928213105163544522.post-60292171276057344282009-07-13T00:34:51.462-07:002009-07-13T00:34:51.462-07:00Although the Mumbai rains are appearing and disapp...Although the Mumbai rains are appearing and disappearing, I am indeed glad to have you back.Sucharita Sarkarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07802171314546508539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928213105163544522.post-60845868735539483202009-07-09T22:19:38.082-07:002009-07-09T22:19:38.082-07:00thanks Aleta for coming over.

New Orleans has been very dry (and hot and humid) since last month and finally, we are getting rain too. <br /><br />I remember playing in the flood waters when I was a child with little boats and thinking it was fun.

Here in Seattle we are finally enjoying no rain and lots of beautiful sun which is soooo welcome after the very long, very cold winter. I wonder, too, sometimes if global warming is affecting us as much as the weather.
