Umbrellas are insurance...
It only rains when one
is
without...
and one's umbrella
is...
alas...
within...

Liked the metaphor of an inner umbrella we all carry, hopefully to shield from the shit that will inevitably rain down from time to time. Sorrowfully, some are a bit slow getting it open, and others never close it, missing the sunshine as well.
