Today We Danced in the Rain

A beautiful rain came today.  I was in the project office working on an assignment when it started raining.  Smita and Alisa, some new friends, came in and told us to come dance!  We went to the roof top of one of the buildings in the Ashram and celebrated.  There was twirling,spinning and splashing. We kicked up our feet and thanked the sky for giving us a beautiful shower.  I could feel all the sweat and stress of the day leave my body.  I felt renewed.  My hair dripped, my clothes stuck to everything, I was a mess and yet I have never felt more put together.  Then through my celebration I looked out behind me and I saw the most beautiful thing. The mountains of the Himalayas covered in mist in the distance.  It stopped my breath and I just stood there, marveling at the sight before me. And I immediately thought: I cannot believe I am here.  And the immense power of where I was washed over me and I just soaked it all in.
