Today we saw sunlight after almost a week's rain.....the day was a beautiful one and i had taken this picture from our balcony today while i was enjoying a cup of tea......looking across and around me.....it was all so green .....in fact different shades of green and this is a patch of paddy field right in the middle of town......people still cultivate here......so you can see the paddy is still green and as the months roll by its beautiful to watch the paddy ripe and finally turn golden. The earth smelt fresh....and the air was clean. finally after so many days the machines got a rest and we could dry our clothes out in the sun .......but this is just the start of the monsoons.......the wet days are not over yet . If the Rain Gods are listening we are not complaining but please give us a break once in a while and let us feel the warmth of the Sun God too !!!
