Rainy days in Shanghai

These days it has been raining. I have had the habit of walking outdoors every day. How I want to go outside to have a leisurely walk and watch people, animals and plants around me, which makes me really relaxed both physically and mentally. Fortunately enough, I have a running machine at home which I can use on such rainy days. Simultaneously, I can also stay at home, standing or sitting beside a window to watch the rain and everything else in the rain. Moreover, with the help of the rain, the air smells fresher and cleaner.

I think for one a good state of mind is of much importance in life because with such a good state of mind I virtually enjoy everything in life and can easily find beauty in seemingly unpleasant things. Thus, it can be said that beauty is an attitude which has nothing to do with your surroundings.

I am happy since I am a positive and optimistic one. Most of the time happiness seems not to be something given by others, instead, it is your ability to experience and feel happiness. Without such an ability, you won't feel the happiness even if you do be living happily.

I love rainy days in Shanghai.

    I can feel what you say; it happens to me the same :)
    I agree with you, to see the beauty around us in our daily routine it has to do more with our state of mind than anything else. Just like happiness.

    Have a lovely day :)

  • Hello Helenee. These days here are sunny. I don't like rain in the winter but i enjoy it in the summer and i like the smell of it too. It is good that you are a positive person because as you say you see and enjoy things more than a person who is not so positive. So, stay positive and enjoy your happy moments!
