The month is coming to an end and it has brought with it the rains. It has been raining for most nights here while the day day is usually sunny, providing a sharp contrast to the cold rains at night.

Rainy nights are lovely for me because they change the temperature of the room and make everything feel cool which in turn makes me sleep even better.

Today, we'll be discussing some of the benefits of the rain:

  • Human life sustenance

It is no secret that as humans, we need water to stay alive. With a body that is made up of seventy percent of water, it is important to ensure that one has enough intake of water.

  • Plant Growth

Plant needs water and sunshine to grow. During the drought, farmers usually have to source for water using other means like irrigation where they move or direct water from a stream or a water source to the farm. Rain therefore enables the plants to get their necessary water needs and helps them to grow beautifully and healthy

  • Earth's Supply

Our sources of water on earth are from natural sources like the seas, oceans river, streams etc. This is where water comes from before it is cleaned and refined into drinkable or even tap water. The rain fills these water sources and enables us get more supply of water for our earthly needs. The water in the ponds and ocean also helps the aquatic animals that live there.

  • Skin Care

OK, I know this sounds weird but it does help with skin care. During the hot season, we sweat more often, our body produces more oils and some of us break out in acnes. But when the rain starts, we hardly sweat at usual and our face is usually noticeably smoother. Also, we sweat less and those who suffer body odour have less issues during this period.

  • Heat Relief

The hot weather comes with a lot of heat. It makes one very uncomfortable and having to too seek loose clothing to wear. The rain then comes to counter the heat. When it rains, the atmosphere becomes cool and has us reaching for our blanket so we can cover ourselves up and snuggle into bed.

  • Calories Burner

It has been said that walking in the rain helps one to burn more fat and calories than it would have done during the hot season. Apparently, engaging in any form of physical activities under rain, according to medical research, helps with the loss of fat and calorie burning. So, when next it rains, feel free to jump, dance or even sing in the rain. Spread your arms apart, lat go and just twirl around and embrace the sense of freedom that comes with that.

Rain also has some of its disadvantages such as flooding, erosion etc. But today, we'll talk about the positive aspects of things and how tain helps us.

Thank you all for reading!
