Later, I parked my bike and lay down on a wooden . Just as I got , a man appeared in my vision. “It looks like it's going to rain,” he said. “I was just like you once,” the man continued. “One day, I went for a bike ride and lay down on a bench, it started to rain. People walking by me probably thought I was .” I listened, with the rain falling down. “Rain is like therapy （治疗）,” he said, “ you just lie there and let it fall on your face.”
“I'm taking a tai chi class, and there's this word, Kua, that means ‘Everything in the is connected.'” He began to sway （摇晃） a little. “When the shoulders move, the hips move. Everything is connected.”The rain fell , and I told the man I'd better get home.“Nice to meet you,” he said, and we called each other's bikes beautiful before forever.
I had never ridden in the rain before. I was that I wouldn't be able to practice my hands-free skills on the way home. But then a（an） thought came into my mind: Why not? The wind and icy summer rain beat my face my bent knees took turns being first and I my arms in the air, my balance holding strong. I yelled to no one . I'd never been more truly in the moment. Everything was connected.

The danger is understandable, but the of riding a bike with no handlebars and the refreshment of words from a mysterious stranger is worth getting a little wet.
