The Chinese New Year is celebrated as a spring festival in commemoration of the legend of Nia. Nia was supposed to be a huge wild animal which terrified towns and villages on winter evenings when it came looking for food. The people were frightened as they could think of no way of scaring the monster away.
While I was doing the inside --
The much needed rain --
Was doing the outside --
And the difference was becoming obvious.copyright Monika Roleff 2006.

What a magnificent metaphor Monika. I always think of water as having purifying, cleansing powers and this was obvious as the rains drenched everything.
The timing is pretty amazing, too, huh?
Great idea Lois!
