Most people look at a rainy day and see inconvenience.
A sailor sees full water tanks.
It’s been raining since 4 this morning. By 11, the dinghy is nearly overflowing with fresh water — water I can use to clean, wash down the boat, even drink if properly filtered.
Funny how often the difference between a curse and a blessing is simply perspective.
As Marcus Aurelius wrote:
“The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.”
Today, the rain became the way.
