I live in the Pacific NW where rain is a way of life. A few months ago on a typically overcast, grey day when I donated stem cells to a woman with acute leukemia, I chose "Life is Beautiful" to watch during my donation. A wonderful film that says no matter how bad it gets there is always hope. Even the ending was not as sullen as one might expect. Somehow the connection between the film and the woman for whom I was donating hit me hard and made my spirit leap for joy. That cloudy day broke out sunny. I hope it does for you too.
