Blessings

Are rain blessings from god ...then why god is biased in showering blessings .After long hot summer we were blessed with good showers (Blessings) until end of the last month .Where rain is creating havoc in southern part of country ...North western part is still in anticipation of satisfactory rain where conditions of  drought can't be ruled out .
Although Good Monsoon directly effects the growth of the economy of the country,excess or less of Rain pour may have major detrimental effects individually/on the state as whole for the upcoming year.
Hope blessings should be equally showered ,where everything is good about rain it always revive or resurrect garden after horrendous summer bringing  greenery back  and giving perfect environment for flowers  to bloom.
