The rain is falling and evoking a certain kind of mood in me. I searched for "MS rain" on YouTube and found this clip, which sits at a polar opposite to my current "MS rain" mood. It makes me smile because this kind of dissonance has been the story of my MS sojourn. There's a disconnect between me and this video -- the music, the performer's style, the dancing audience members.... -- that feels, today, an eloquent synopsis of the Sojourner in Mississippi experience.
