:Rain of Seattle西雅圖的雨
I've got a deep secret few people understand and even fewer will admit to sharing. It's time to tell the truth: I love the rain, deeply and passionately and more than the sun. At least I live in the right place, famous for its damp weather and spawning its own genuine rainforest. I can't imagine living anywhere else than the Pacific Northwest. The sun shines so infrequently that my friends forget where they put their sunglasses. Gloomy clouds cause many people around here to suffer from seasonal affective disorder. Yet I welcome the rain.
Seattleites will say they like how rain keeps the city green, how clean the air tastes afterwards. My real reason for enjoying the rain is steeped in pure selfishness when it's mucky outside, I don't have to do anything. I can spend the afternoon curled up reading, build a fire and make a big pot of spiced tea. I can sleep in late, waking up occasionally to hear soothing patter on the roof, water racing down the gutter. Nobody expects me to leave my house or do anything overly productive. Maybe I'll invite a few friends over to watch an old movie or play a board game. Friends' expectations are low and easy to meet.
Summer in Seattle is beautiful but exhausting. The sunny, gorgeous weather and blue skies draw Seattleites from their cozy little homes, ready to dry out and have fun. People go hiking, biking, canoeing. Folks work in their gardens, wash their cars and attend outdoor concerts in the park all in the same day! The effort involved to throw a party ratchets up several notches, as people host barbecues and picnics and water-skiing parties.
我有一個極少為人理解甚至無人願意分享的祕密。現在應該說出來了:我愛雨,深情而熱烈,甚至勝過對太陽的愛。最起碼我住在適宜之地,以潮溼的天氣和產生自己的雨林而出名。除了太平洋西北部,我想不出自己還能住在哪兒。陽光如此罕見,以至我的朋友們都忘了把太陽鏡放到哪裡去了。烏雲密佈的天空讓很多在這兒生活的人都遭受季節性的情緒波動,然而我卻歡迎雨的到來。
西雅圖人會說他們喜歡雨使這個城市變綠,空氣變得清新。我喜歡雨的真正原因純粹是出於自我考慮。在外面泥濘的時候,我可以什麼都不幹,整個下午蜷縮在家裡看書,再生盆火,泡一大壺香茶。我可以睡到很晚,時而醒來傾聽屋簷上柔和的拍打,水順著水槽往下流的聲音。沒人要我離開房子或去幹一些超負荷的勞動。也許我會邀上幾個朋友看一部老電影,或者玩玩棋盤遊戲。朋友的期望不高,極易滿足。
西雅圖的夏天如此美麗卻令人疲憊不堪。晴朗的天氣和蔚藍的天空吸引著西雅圖人走出安逸舒適的小家,準備去幹燥的戶外尋找樂趣。他們去遠足、騎車、劃獨木舟。他們修整自家的花園、洗車、去公園聽露天音樂會,所有這些都在同一天做完!在他們舉行烤肉、野餐和參加水上滑雪派對時,他們會把派對分成幾個等級一步步推進。
:Run through the rain 雨中的記憶
She had been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart. She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful brown haired, freckle-faced image of innocence. It was pouring outside. The kind of rain that gushes over the top of rain gutters, so much in a hurry to hit the Earth, it has no time to flow down the spout.
她和媽媽剛在沃爾瑪結束購物。這個天真的小女孩應該6歲大了,頭髮是美麗的棕色,臉上有雀斑。外面下著傾盆大雨。雨水溢滿了簷槽,來不及排走,就迫不及待地湧漲上地面。
We all stood there under the awning and just inside the door of the Wal-Mart. We all waited, some patiently, others irritated, because nature messed up their hurried day. I am always mesmerized by rainfall. I get lost in the sound and sight of the heavens washing away the dirt and dust of the world. Memories of running, splashing so carefree as a child come pouring in as a welcome reprieve from the worries of my day.
我們都站在沃爾瑪門口的遮篷下。大家都在等待,有人很耐心,有人很煩躁,因為老天在給他們本已忙碌的一天添亂。雨天總引起我的遐思。我出神地聽著、看著老天沖刷洗滌這世界的汙垢和塵埃,孩時無憂無慮地在雨中奔跑玩水的記憶洶湧而至,暫時緩解了我一天的焦慮。
Her voice was so sweet as it broke the hypnotic trance we were all caught in, “Mom, let's run through the rain." she said.
小女孩甜美的聲音打破了這令人昏昏欲睡的氣氛,“媽媽,我們在雨裡跑吧。”她說。
"What?" Mom asked.
“什麼?”母親問。
"Let's run through the rain!" She repeated.
“我們在雨裡跑吧,”她重複。
"No, honey. We'll wait until it slows down a bit." Mom replied.
“不,親愛的,我們等雨小一點再走。”母親回答說。
This young child waited about another minute and repeated: "Mom, let's run through the rain."
過了一會小女孩又說:“媽媽,我們跑出去吧。”
"We'll get soaked if we do." Mom said.
“這樣的話我們會溼透的。”母親說。
"No, we won't, Mom. That's not what you said this morning," the young girl said as she tugged at her Mom's arm."
“不會的,媽媽。你今天早上不是這樣說的。”小女孩一邊說一邊拉著母親的手。
"This morning? When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?"
“今天早上?我什麼時候說過我們淋雨不會溼啊?”
"Don't you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said, If God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!"
“你不記得了嗎?你和爸爸談他的癌症時,你不是說‘如果上帝讓我們闖過這一關,那我們就沒有什麼過不去。’”
The entire crowd stopped dead silent. I swear you couldn't hear anything but the rain. We all stood silently. No one came or left in the next few minutes. Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say.
人群一片寂靜。我發誓,除了雨聲,你什麼都聽不到。我們都靜靜地站著。接下來的幾分鐘沒有一個人走動。母親停了一下,想著應該說些什麼。
Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being silly. Some might even ignore what was said. But this was a moment of affirmation in a young child's life. Time when innocent trust can be nurtured so that it will bloom into faith. "Honey, you are absolutely right. Let's run through the rain. If get wet, well maybe we just needed washing." Mom said. Then off they ran.
有人也許會對此一笑了之,或者責備這孩子的不懂事,有人甚至不把她的話放在心上。但這卻是一個小孩子一生中需要被肯定的時候。若受到鼓舞,此時孩子單純的信任就會發展成為堅定的信念。“親愛的,你說得對,我們跑過去吧。如果淋溼了,那也許是因為我們的確需要衝洗一下了。”母親說。然後她們就衝出去了。
We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they darted past the cars and. They held their shopping bags over their heads just in case. They got soaked. But they were followed by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars. And yes, I did. I ran. I got wet. I needed washing.Circumstances or people can take away your material possessions, they can take away your money, and they can take away your health. But no one can ever take away your precious memories. So, don't forget to make time and take the opportunities to make memories every day!
我們站在那裡,笑著看她們飛快地跑過停著的汽車。她們把購物袋高舉過頭想擋擋雨,但還是溼透了。好幾個人像孩子般尖叫著,大笑著,也跟著衝了出去,奔向自己的車子。當然,我也這樣做了,跑了出去,淋溼了。我也需要接受洗禮。環境或其他人可以奪去你的物質財富,搶走你的金錢,帶走你的健康,但沒有人可以帶走你珍貴的回憶。因此,記得要抓緊時間,抓住機會每天都給自己留下一些回憶吧
To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven. I hope you still take the time to run through the rain.
世間萬物皆有自己的季節,做任何事情也有一個恰當的時機。希望你有機會在雨中狂奔一回。
: “A Rainy Day”
By Abdul Wahab Khokhar
Rain is one of the most beautiful moments of nature. Rain is thefalling of water from the clouds coming back to the earth, which is taken indirectly by the sun.
Rain is a very beautiful moment that can enhance any person, and is able to make many people toadmit it as a great blessing of God bestowed upon man by him in some specific time.
Nature is beautiful and it has many forms, and scenes, each of which is different to one anotherand varies in their beauty. Rain is one of them that give a real feeling of happiness and gratitude ina sad or mournful time.
“Nature like man sometimes weeps for gladness” ***Disraeli***
By the grace of God, I’ve been able to see many scene and many beauties of nature. Rain is onlythe most beautiful and relief giving moment in the time of dolefulness. I can’t forget the rainy daythat I spent with my friends some days ago.
I still remember each of its moment, and I don’t think that I would forget that fascinatingmoments. That day I came from school, back to home and was much tired because of continuousfull length papers. I was too much depressed because of my performance, which was good butnot excellent, even after continuous and hard struggle. I came back to home after relaxing fewminutes, washed my face with addition to ablution and took a bath. Even the water was too muchhot that even after taking bath I didn’t feel too much cold. That day was a summer day withburning heat.
After bath, I offered prayer and ate something. When I was free, I really thought, as if it wouldhave rained. That thought was too much adorable that was enjoying a cold water rain with nomore heat. After that I look to the sun with its full light and sky with no clouds, this made mythoughts crushed into the garbage.
“The rain in the burning heat of summer is a blessing of God”
That time it was being realized that rain is not just water; rather it is a big relief and a great blessingof Allah Almighty, in the burning heat of summer. The burning heat, hot shinning sun and noclouds in the sky were the proof for no chances of rain.
Even at that time, I didn’t know why but I still wanting to enjoy the rain, as if it would rain becauseI’m saying. I shunt off my thoughts and went into my room and started thinking that why is therethis much heat and un-reliable time? Why there is no rain and why we are not being able to seethe heaven’s most beautiful eyes? And why we are not being able to enjoy the beat part of thebeauty?
“The best part of the beauty is that which no picture can describe”
But then I thought and clicked my mind that it is due to sins of humanity which is careless of manythings, not knowing its consequence. I was just thinking about that then I prayed to God toforgive us for our sins and take away that hellish exam of heat and hot weather back.Consequently, when I reached up on the 2nd storey of my house and went outside to theterrace, then I saw that most of the sunlight was gone and there were lot of clouds appearing inthe sky. Suddenly water dropped on my nose and I became too much happy, knowing that itbegan to rain today.
“He send rain on the just and the unjust” ***New-Testament***
Suddenly, it rained and millions of drops of water fell on me. I was smiling and I don’t think anythingelse. This moment brought a smile on my face, that day. All the heat was gone and I was justthanking God for this blessing with a feeling of gratitude. All that time it was looking like that noweven the earth was thirsty for water, flowery buds were waiting for many season to came and thento bloom.
“The daily showers rejoice the thirsty earth, and bless the flowery buds” ***Prior***
I’ve experienced many other rains in my life but it was the most memorable because it came in theneed of hour. This rainy day was most memorable for me and after the rain I was able to enjoyeven more due to open, dairy, and cold weather while I was seeing the rainbow formed by therays of the sunlight. Then the fair weather came after the rain which made me to rejoice evenmore and enjoy life.
“After rain cometh fair weather”
This rain was very enjoyable and I can’t forge it for the reason it was enjoyment plus my necessity,and Allah Almighty heard and also did what I said. It’s really greatness of God. Rain is really agreat blessing of God.
“Rain showers my spirit and waters my soul”
At the end I conclude mu essay by saying that the rain is grace, rain is the sky condescending toearth, without rain, and there would be no life. Rain gives new life to the whole atmosphere. It isthe well-known and beautiful phenomena of nature and is charming, fascinating, ravishing,adoring and joyful beauty.
