May. Its going to rain soon. Shall we go back now?? said the ever gentle Mrs Rystal.

The dark clouds came out of the blue, taking over the clear blue sky. Moms starts to rush their kids back to home as they expect a heavy downfall to follow. As she tug softly at the handof her dear daughter, she found the small hand to resist her intention. She was suddenly caught by the expression on her face. The expression of excitmentand happiness. Drops of rain soon fall as she tried to persuade May to get into shelter. As the rain drops and stream down may's face. She starting giggling to herself. Outstretching her 2 small hands, she stood there as the raindrops slowly caress her face and body.

Mom. Isnt this wonderful? May said as she began turning and dancing, like she is dancing with the rain droplets while the thunder clap to her rhythem. Mrs Rystal surprised by the reaction could only stood there and watch her lovely daughter. A smile slowly ran across her face as tears streamed down her cheeks, camouflaged by the very thing that made her daughter so happy.
For Mrs Rystal know, it was never easy for May, a child blind from birth, to truely enjoy what other kids are able to.

What is happiness? Is it about winning a million dollars on a wednesday night or is it about enjoying every single moment and thing that comes into your life? People are often "blinded" by wealth and fame only to miss out on the very things they hold dear to their heart. Open up your heart and feel the world. Let people know that Love isnt lost yet.

So come August 3rd. Dont hesitate, Pack more $$ and give it to the very dear friend that you have right infront of you. Show him where love really is.It certainly isnt in your pocket... :)
