Let it rain!.Who cares?.I’ve a train upstairs,.With a brake which I make.From a string sort of thing. So that’s what I make,.When the day’s all wet. It’s a good sort of brake.But it hasn’t worked yet. ~A.A.Milne .#MondayMotivation #rain

Pooh took his largest pot of honey and escaped with it to a broad branch of his tree and then he climbed down again and escaped with another pot… and when the whole Escape was finished, there was Pooh sitting on his branch and beside him were ten pots of honey. ~A.A.Milne #rain

Piglet told himself that never in all his life, and he was goodness knows HOW old - three, was it, or four? - never had he seen so much rain. “If only,” he thought, as he looked out of the window, “I had been in Pooh’s house, then I would have had Company.” ~A.A.Milne #rain

"I found courage in the countryside, in nature. Being alone never frightened me, even at night, provided I was in contact with my surroundings - with the grass underfoot, with the dim shapes of trees and distant mountains. This was what I clung to." ~C.R.Milne #FridayFeeling

Piglet was still a little anxious about Tigger, who was a very Bouncy Animal, with a way of saying How-do-you-do, which always left your ears full of sand, even after Kanga had said, “Gently, Tigger dear,” and had helped you up again. ~A.A.Milne.#TuesdayFeeling

One day Rabbit and Piglet were sitting outside Pooh’s front door, and Pooh was sitting with them. It was a drowsy summer afternoon, and the Forest was full of gentle sounds, which all seemed to be saying to Pooh, “Don’t listen to Rabbit, listen to me.” ~A.A.Milne #heatwave

It was the first party to which Roo had ever been, and he was very excited. He began to talk and Kanga said, “Drink up your milk first, dear, and talk afterwards.” .So Roo tried to do both at once. and had to be patted on the back and dried. ~A.A.Milne #FridayFeeling

Pooh sat down in the middle of the stream. The sun was so delightfully warm, and the stone, which had been sitting in it for a long time, was so-warm, too, that Pooh decided to go on being Pooh in the middle of the stream for the rest of the morning. ~A.A.Milne #summer

Eeyore turned round angrily on the others and said, “Everybody crowds round so in this Forest. There’s no Space. I never saw a more Spreading lot of animals in my life, and all in the wrong places. Can’t you SEE that Christopher Robin wants to be alone?” ~A.A.Milne #tuesdayvibe

“Sometimes I liked the rain. Little by little the level of the water in the stream rose. And now I hoped it would go on raining, and that I would wake up to find it coming down hard. Perhaps I ought to put on Wellington boots and go and see what was happening.” ~C.R.Milne #rain

"I would go down to the river and find a quiet place, secluded, hidden beneath the bank, and sit there for hours, watching the water as it gently twisted and eddied past me. Then I might see a damsel fly, its wings making a dry whispering sound." ~C.R.Milne #fridayfeeling

“Hello, Pooh,” said Rabbit. “Hallo, Rabbit,” said Pooh dreamily. “Did you make that song up?”.“Well, I sort of made it up,” said Pooh. It comes to me sometimes.”.“Ah!” said Rabbit, who never let things come to him, but always went and fetched them. ~A.A.Milne #thursdaymotivation
