    “THE WEATHER OF LOVE


    Love
    Has a way of wilting
    Or blossoming
    At the strangest,
    Most unpredictable hour.
    This is how love is,
    An uncontrollable beast
    In the form of a flower.
    The sun does not always shine on it.
    Nor does the rain always pour on it
    Nor should it always get beaten by a storm.
    Love does not always emit the sweetest scents,
    And sometimes it can sting with its thorns.
    Water it.
    Give it plenty of sunlight.
    Nurture it,
    And the flower of love will
    Outlive you.
    Neglect it or keep dissecting it,
    And its petals will quickly curl up and die.
    This is how love is,
    Perfection is a delusional vision.
    So love the person who loves you
    Unconditionally,
    And abandon the one
    Who only loves you
    Under favorable
    Conditions.”
    Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

    Douglas Coupland
    “The richness of the rain made me feel safe and protected; I have always considered the rain to be healing—a blanket—the comfort of a friend. Without at least some rain in any given day, or at least a cloud or two on the horizon, I feel overwhelmed by the information of sunlight and yearn for the vital, muffling gift of falling water.”
    Douglas Coupland, Life After God

    Haruki Murakami
    “Look at the rain long enough, with no thoughts in your head, and you gradually feel your body falling loose, shaking free of the world of reality. Rain has the power to hypnotize.”
    Haruki Murakami, South of the Border, West of the Sun

    Kamand Kojouri
    “For me,
    you are fresh water
    that falls from trees
    when it has stopped raining. For me,
    you are cinnamon that lingers
    on the tongue and gives
    bitter words
    sweetening.
    For me, you are the scent of
    violins and vision
    of valleys
    smiling.
    And still,
    for me, your loveliness never ends.
    It traverses
    the world
    and finds its
    way back to me.
    Only
    me.”
    Kamand Kojouri
