Matthew 5:43-45
"You have heard that it was said, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR, and hate your enemy.'
"But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you in order that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous..."

This may be a bit off the subject but I reckon it rained last night round these parts, and it was beautiful, what with all the pitter-patters among the treetops and such. Rainwater's all we drink here on the island so when it falls it's a precious thing. Precious like a newborn calf, all covered in the morning dew, smellin all fresh and sweet like a eucalyptus twig.
