In this chapter Foster talks a whole lot about Rain and how it can be interpreted differently, it can be used for sadness and misery. You know, the whole gloom and doom bit. It can also be restorative. Spring time, April showers, May flowers, baby animals, and fresh grass. He also covered the mystery of fog, and the cold bitterness of snow. He even covered rainbows. Yay! But he didn't exactly express the effect of sunshine, and the sunrise. This is weather too, is it not? At the very end of one of my favorite books, Leoat's Garden, the day is very sunny, warm, but not hot, with a slight breeze. At this point in the book things are looking hopeful, not perfect, but hopeful. Uncle George is still acting like an a - (ehem) butt. And Nora still has issues, but she's starting to see them now. Corban has realized there's more to life then money and success. Yes, the sun is shining, and life goes on. Despite that sadness and grief that has transpired over the past months. Another one of my favorites is Gone with the Wind. Shortly after arriving home to Tara from Atlanta, to find no food, sick sisters, a dead mother, and a deranged father, Scarlett summons up her inner strength as the sun rises, declaring that she will never be hungry again! How's that for drama? But all is hopeful because Scarlett is home, and is sure to put things to rights once again. Hurrah!
