I am wondering whether you like the sound of rain? Falling asleep to the sound of rain is the best thing. Why not listen to a little bit of rain http://www.spencersternberg.com/blog/?p=322.

I remember when I was working in Pusan (South Korea) that the house I was living in had a large French window. When it was raining I used to lie on the floor, read a book or grade my students homework, and listen/watch the rain falling. Very relaxing.

Thanks for the chance to share my memory.

It almost seems universal. I recently had a baby and we have a CD with sounds of nature on it. One of the tracks plays water sounds like rain and I like to hold my baby and we fall asleep to it. It's very relaxing.

As water is not my environment, heavy rain sometimes makes me anxious. On the other side, rain appears to be some kind of purification, that is why people mostly like to observe it and hear its sound as a symbol of physical and spiritual cleaning.
