First, neither your disappointment nor your anger was caused by the rain. The rain was a perfectly lawful display of nature. Your 'upset' at the ruined picnic and your 'happiness' when the sun reappeared were the product of your thought. They had nothing to do with the actual events. Haven't you been 'unhappy' at celebrations for example? It is obvious then that your mind, not other people or your surroundings, is the source of your moods. That is the first lesson.
The second lesson comes from observing how you became even more angry when you noticed that I wasn't upset in the least. You became to see yourself compared to a warrior － two warriors, if you please. I might have implied a change is necessary.
