A/N: With so much going on in our lives, let's remember to relax more often. Stress is detrimental. Life is supposed to be beautiful. Life is beautiful! No matter what the naysayers, evildoers, haters, Karens and drama queens of the world throw our way, it should never disrupt our own pursuit of happiness.

    This one felt like joy on paper. The imagery is simple but so full of life—dancing in the rain, movies till sunrise... it’s a reminder to breathe and just be. I’m going through all the haiku entries now, and yours brought a smile. Thanks for spreading the good energy!
