Weather Observer

He is a weather observer who has been in the mountains for thirty years, recording clouds and rain every day. Some people said that he was wasting his life. He said: "When the clouds overwhelm the rain, God is about to cry." There was a severe drought that year and the crops were about to die, so the villagers begged him to find a way. He looked at the sky and said: "It will rain at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon." At three o'clock the next day, not a drop of rain fell. The villagers called him a liar. On the fourth day, it rained heavily for the whole day. He said to the rain: "I'm sorry, I made a mistake. It has been holding for too long and can't stand three o'clock." Only then did the villagers know that he had not slept for three days in order to wait for the rain.
