A Little Rain Must Fall

It is a metaphorical way of saying that everyone will experience some hardship or misfortune.

My grandma used to say this a lot when I was younger, and I never understood what it meant.

Until I became a young adult and went through being homeless after leaving my mother's and my pops' house.

A little rain must fall for you to receive the lesson of growth.

I went through a lot when I left, but to experience homelessness is something that I never would have imagined.

I survived it by the Grace of God and a few great friends.

A little rain must fall again in the grief and loss of two people I loved and fought for to this very day.

I know sometimes we feel like we can take on the world without realizing a little rain must fall for you to walk in both humbleness and grace.

A little rain must fall to help you heal and love without questioning if you deserve it.

Hold your head up high and tell yourself I can stand the rain.
