we tune in to find patterns of meaning
Rain sings the rhythm of where I am in life. I can pick out any tune within it’s patterns.
The tune comes to me. I don’t take it to the rain. It must be singing them all at the same time.
As long as I am moving, the song moves along. In this, the rain is a river I never enter and hear the same song—for I have moved on.
