here's a story for you:

"Once upon a time in a land of drifting rain there lived a girl. This girl spent many hours standing in the rain, thinking her thoughts, watching the green frogs in the lily pond. Sometimes others would come and stand with her, though quickly most would retreat back into the warmth of their houses. The girl could understand this, and every so often her tears mingled with the sweet drifting rain because she knew what it was to be alone."
