false 2022131 1 God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change… are the words that echo through my being when I think of Raindrops. See, life sometimes has unexpected storms in store, and regardless of how hard we try to protect ourselves from it, the storm appears to be stronger and can consequently defeat us. These poetic moments are raindrops during one of my life's storms. Each and every one is a moment lived, raw and unedited…written as it happened. Even though the story reaches a different ending than one initially hoped and fought for, it proves that, in life, there is a time to confront the storm, but there is also a time when we must get the "…courage to change the things we can." And with doing that, as long as we have "…the wisdom to know the difference," it makes the journey through the storm all the more worthwhile. Then, and only then, sunshine breaks through. 2026560 23 7 2007 Raindrops total:1|4:1| 1 4 5 0 0 0 false false Mon Nov 23 16:57:45 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 23 16:57:53 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Mar 29 07:49:18 -0700 2008 Sat Mar 29 07:49:33 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Mon Mar 24 22:32:47 -0700 2008 Mon Mar 24 22:32:52 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Mon Mar 17 12:02:34 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 12 18:16:11 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 12 18:16:11 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed Dec 12 09:44:17 -0800 2007 Wed Dec 12 09:44:17 -0800 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=2022131
