7 Reasons Why I Don't Fancy Umbrellas In Rain

I don't fancy umbrellas because I love the rain, the way it comes.

It's been years I carried one during rainy season. I have no disliking towards umbrellas as I often use them during summers to protect myself from the scorching heat. But when monsoon arrives, I generally stay away from them. When the raindrops touch my face, I feel a high, comparable to vodka or tequila shots taken on a cold and breezy night!

Though the learned minds would tell you to always keep an umbrella handy, I can tell you some things to enjoy on a rainy day minus the umbrella:

1. If you are with your guy, chances are strong that however khadoos or unromantic he might be, he will get romantic after a walk in the rain. (Personal experience!)
2. There is no better time than this to grab the samosas/ pakoras with a hot cup of road-side chai (tea) after you are all drenched in the rain.
3. A ride on the bike in heavy showers could be really adventurous. (Safety of course is primary.)
4. Go for a movie and reach home late. No umbrella means "I had to wait till the rain stopped."
5. Can be a great time to bring your hidden feelings. Go PROPOSE. Even if you get a NO, you can safely cry in some corner. It's raining, so your tears are barely visible.
6. If you are at home, you can collect all the kids in the colony and make 'kagaz ki kashtiyan'. 
7. And this is my favorite reason: You can just feel yourself. PLAY, DANCE, DO WHATEVER on the street. People know it's the rain effect. ;)

Research says "Water molecules react to the environment. If you are happy, water will be happy too." But remember, if you become sad with rain. Try not to lock yourself in a room. GO out and FACE it!

Rain is for lovers, friends, kids, couples. The only sad part is the TRAFFIC!!! But even the umbrella can't spare you from the horror!
