After the rain

After it rains, the world is a different place.

It's not just the smell of wet earth and grass that is different. It is also the singing of the birds and the feeling of living in a world where everything seems new again.

Stan and his best friend, a dog named Indy, walk together through this new world. The boy has been through so much lately: he lost his parents, he lost his home, but somehow they still manage to find each other every day and make sure each other knows how much they care about each other. . Stan looks at his friend and smiles as they walk down an empty street together-the sun shining overhead-and thinks about how lucky he is to have such a wonderful friend as Indy.
