Profound question from my friend Lefty?

Question

<---goes to yahoo and asks question 'one drop of rain is so beautiful but once it joins the sea..is it as beautiful' THERE answer than un!

Answer 1

A drop of rain is beautiful in terms of its role as a supply of drinking water, and free irrigation.
It spends its time in the sea sustaining the creatures there and then evaporates, forming clouds from which new raindrops are formed.

Answer 2

It is even more beautyful when it finally gets home, because then it remembers what it is.


I am the ocean, you are the raindrops. We are the same. You raindrops, because of your similar size and location, see yourselves as separate, as units, as individuals. This perception of your selves has been your only reality since you were born in the clouds. You have no other perspective of your selves. As you fall through your short lives here, you see the ocean far below. On a certain level you understand that it and you are one and the same. You envy its magnificence. The thought comes,” I am water too, am I not also part of this magnificence?” Then you realize that you are but an insignificant raindrop. You can only look at that distant ocean in awe. The ocean with its timeless knowledge sees you quite differently. It sees you for what you really are. Its most precious children, bravely returning home to share the experience that ocean as a whole could never have experienced. The ocean has nothing but love for you. Because it understands that it is you, and that you are it. It knows only truth. Until the moment you reunite you can only speculate. The ocean's love for you is unconditional. It holds no foolish thought of punishing you for not falling quite right. It only waits with great patience for your homecoming.

The tiny collisions you had with the other drops on the way down, at the time seemed so significant. Often you feared that if you mingled with them too long you might get to close and in the process even lose your identity. All this because you understood your true identity not! You are ocean, you always were ocean, you always will be ocean. How you currently perceive yourself raindrop, snow flake, puddle, stream, River, or lake matters not. This is all illusion, only perception. You are ocean, you are spirit. You and I are one; we are the All That Is!

Answer 3

it adds it's beauty to all the other rain drops and creates the wonder that is the sea. Of course it's all beautiful.

Answer 4

one drop of rain is so beautiful but once it joins the sea it looks even more amazing knowing all this started from one drop of rain.

Answer 5

The beauty of your drop of rain comes from its uniqueness. Once it joins the sea it loses its uniqueness, yet it's unique beauty now contributes to the unique beauty of the sea...What?

Answer 6

If you lived in a drought-ridden country as I do, you would know that rainfall is ALWAYS beautiful...when it gets to the sea it will eventually evaporate, rise in the air and create more rain. The more water available to this thirsty planet, the merrier!

Answer 7

That beautiful drop of rain has now become an intricate part of the vast expanded beauty that is now magnified through the correlation of the multitude of tears from heaven.

How's that.

Answer 8

that depends in what context u discribe the rain as beautifull, if ure thurty then one drop of rain on the lips will be deemed as life saving, but as soon as it its the sea, then u cant drink it..
''water water every where, but not a drop to drink''
one can not survive on sea water,
so if based on survival then the rain would be consided much more beautifull

Answer 9

It stops being individually beautiful and becomes part of a greater, more profound beauty. So there!

Answer 10

well yeah but not all rain goes into the sea.... is it still beautiful when it has sank into the ground and you can no longer see it or feel it or drink it ?
