Days of rain and snow and occasional sunshine. You wake up in the morning all set to work on sword forms today but there is the lightest of snows falling, strange heavy chunks, not snowflakes. You leave the sword inside and do some empty hands work outside as the snow fades into a light rain. And so it goes, for several spring days. The sun makes a sudden appearance. You are reluctant at first, but it soothes and caresses you while you are in motion outside, and you shed a layer or two as your trust grows. You go inside, make four trips up and down the stairs to hang laundry out on the balcony, checking each trip that the sun is still out there, is not teasing you. On the way outside, you grab a sword, glad for the chance to finally...
In an instant, the misty rain began again. You are not sure if it is sunny or cloudy. It seems to be both at once.
You put the blade away, pull the clothes back inside, slap on some gloves for more empty hand work and guess what.
There is our friend the sun again.
