Sometimes even when it doesnt rain, it pours

October and November being bounteous of rains this year, it had become habitual and necessary to carry umbrellas every day, one for me and one for my four year old, to the bus stop every morning. One of these mornings, the sky threw a surprise with a spread of cloudless blue. I insisted that there was no need for an umbrella as it would not rain. Sure as the sun was about his brightness was the little ones answer - " I know it will not rain, but i want to carry the umbrella because i like to, i want to, that's all ". And he did walk to the bus stop, cheerful and talking non-stop, with the umbrella open. Got me thinking as to when i last did something just because i like to , i want to. Couldn't remember ......


I am sure i am not alone too ....
