Welcome The Rain

Ominous charcoal clouds roll in from the east.

Blackness envelops the sky.

What begins as a single drop develops

into a steady, rhythmic

pat ..... pat ..... pat ......

Suddenly, the skies open up and a down pour

of rain saturates the thirsty earth.....

A businessman lets out an angry sigh.

Knowing that traffic will be slow he thinks,

Why me? Why today? Just tell me Why!

Outside of town,

a farmer scans the horizon as the storm begins to roll in.

With joy and celebration he calls out,

We are blessed!! At last the drought will end.

Life is what you choose to make of it.

When your rain comes......

Will you choose to be the businessman or the farmer?

Welcome The Rain!

Welcome Adversity -- Erik Weihenmayer has climbed to the highest peaks on each of the seven continents,

runs marathons,

paraglides,

cycles,

............ Erik is blind.

Problems are to the mind what exercise is to the muscles,

they toughen and make strong.

--Norman Vincent Peale

Welcome Challenges -- In 1914, Thomas Edison's laboratory caught on fire. As his life's work went up in flames, instead of being heart broken, he called out, "We'll build bigger and better on the ruins."

Accept the challends so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory.

-- General George S. Patton

Welcome Controversary -- On December 1st, 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her bus seat. Her decision led to the end of legal segregation in America.

The greatest power a person possesses is the power to choose.

-- J. Martin Kohe

When you choose to see beyond life's storms,

A new perspective you will gain

Since you will only find your rainbow

After you ....

Welcome The Rain
