Nature after the rain

in Steem For Bangladesh4 days ago

Assalamu Alaikum,
It has been raining continuously for three days, day and night without a break. The sound of rain on the tin roof made the whole house seem to be singing. The first day I felt good inside, it felt like nature was bathing. But when the continuous rain started on the second and third days, the situation around me became completely different.

The roads have become muddy, my feet get stuck when I go to the yard. The dirt road in the village is filled with mud and water. There is no way to walk anywhere, it seems like the entire village has been covered in mud. In this situation, my little girl started crying and crying, "Mommy, let's go outside for a walk.

" I kept telling her that there was no way she could walk outside in the mud. But when her little face was looking at me with wet eyes, I couldn't stay indoors anymore. Finally, giving in to her insistence, I took her out with an umbrella. As soon as I stepped outside, I realized what was happening. My feet were sinking into the mud with every step. It was difficult to keep my balance, I felt like I was dragging my feet while walking. Still, I started walking past the house with my daughter. But surprisingly, the difficulty of walking through the mud caught my attention more than the beauty around me.

The entire village seemed to have been dressed up in a new way after the rain. The plants had been washed away and were perfectly straight. The green rice plants were even greener and the air was filled with that strange, beautiful smell of wet soil. The most striking thing was the pond in front of our house. Kachuri flowers were blooming in the pond. It looked so beautiful that it seemed as if nature had arranged it with its own hands. The flowers were sparkling with the raindrops. My daughter is very happy and small, so these are like a fairy tale to her.

I also felt great joy seeing the smile and excitement on her face. Although I was having a hard time walking. The mud dragged on my shoulders with every step. Still, this nature fascinated me. I realized that joy can be hidden even in hardship, if we can find that beauty. Rainwater not only destroys roads, it also gives new life to nature. The trees are washed and refreshed, the flowers are bright. And the freshness around us also cleanses our minds.

If it weren't for my daughter's insistence, I might have watched the rain sitting inside the house but I wouldn't have been able to enjoy this wonderful beauty of nature. Children actually teach us how to find joy in small things.

Today's experience reminded me again that no matter how much mud and hardship there is on the path of life, the beauty of nature and the smiles of loved ones can make you forget everything. This refreshing atmosphere after the rain has taught me that to find happiness in life, sometimes you have to find it through the mud.
