after the storm

Yesterday morning, the skies opened up, and it poured.  But after it stopped, it left cooler temperatures and lots of lovely raindrops all around my neighbourhood.

These images sort of remind me of that little pang of euphoria you get when you realize, after having just been through a tough time, that things are about to get a whole lot better. 

Because, of course, they always do.
