In the last few days , it has started to rain. Here in Bekasi , Indonesia, there are only two seasons. They are dry and wet seasons. The national weather forecast institution predicts that the rainy season will start in October and November 2021. I think the prediction is close to reality.
Today, it started to rain. There was a heavy rain for about an hour at 2.00 PM.
The weather is often cloudy in the afternoons. However, in the morning, the sunlight was very bright and the temperature was too hot. It was raining heavily when I was at home. I did not have any activities. I got an idea to take some photos of the raindrops on leaves. I think you can see my amateur shots of the raindrops.
Rain water is the only source of ground water. In the dry season, there are some wells that get dried out, but when the rain starts in October, there will be no drought. The draught situation takes place because the start of the rainy season is late. A few years ago, when the rainy season started in late December, there were some areas in my country that suffered from drought.
In ASEAN countries, the weather can be similar because the countries are in tropical zones. The start of the rainy season is sometimes delayed by one or two months

These are the raindrops on some leaves and twigs. The raindrops are like dews in the morning.
The tiny granules that hang on the stems of the leaves are like strings of glittering pearls. The rain is a blessing and a beauty. Let's not insult the rain because with the rain our earth's water is fulfilled.
