In the face of storm

Have you ever driven through a storm? It is positively a most liberating experience. Thunders roaring in the distance, flashes of lightening slicing through the enshrouding darkness; and the rain, oh that seemingly continuous and yet discrete onslaught from heaven, it makes one feel alive just to be so close to such raw power. I love it.

Life presents us with storms, some are of the dreary nature, slowly wearing you down. Yet, if you should be so fortunate to find yourself in the midst of a gallant storm, may you share in the elation that I have felt when confronted with one. Laugh to it in the face, become maniacal if you must, for only in digging deep within our anima, can we release our basic selves and become one with nature.

As for those little storms that wanes the soul, laugh at it too, for they are no more than pesky little brats, not worth your while. In fact, habituate to their syncopated rhythm, and make it your lullaby. There maybe more rainy days than sunny ones, but we need to enjoy both as much as we can.
