The Sound of Rain in My Brain

The sound of rain always seems to soothe the soul, washing away other sounds of thoughts that may be intruding, and reminding us of the power of nature's elements that nourish the Earth, and our lives. 

Then there is thunder, which can be distant or a loud clap overhead. It is the release of energy from colliding thunderclouds, sometimes followed by lightning. 

In the tropics, thunderstorms can be even more intense. The rain pours down harder and longer. The warmer air and ocean of Gulf temperatures are a nice setup for dramatic weather changes. 

For over a year, I have heard the sound of rain every night. 

There has also been thunder. 

It lasts the entire night and then stops in the morning. 

The headphones that I use are blue-tooth enabled, and also cushion any external noises such as dogs and roosters! 

The soundtrack is a tropical thunderstorm and it is set on repeat. 

On a deeper subconscious level, I believe that it has had a positive effect on my sleep and energy during the day. Sleep is very important for our health, and a siesta in the afternoon is always welcomed. It rains then also :) 

The sound of rain in my brain helped me through 2020, and now into 2021.

One thing that always is a very pleasant experience along with this is when I wake up in the middle of the night, take off the headphones, and hear the sound of real rain happening outside!

I usually step outside of the front door and give a greeting to the rain.

I'm not sure if it is because I live in Mexico or I listen to the sound of rain all night that my dreams have been more vivid, more frequent, and I remember some of them more than before. 

Life can be a mystery, and contained within the sound of rain I wonder if I will ever hear a voice or voices, singing or gently whispering words to my sleeping mind, my resting heart, or my soul that never sleeps.

If it happens I will post a blog about it.
