Flash flood apocalypse...

At the beautiful hour of 2:26 am, I started to receive notifications of the brewing storm. It was just a half hour later when I realized Siri wasn't lying to me. It has been at least 2 years since I have been woken up and disoriented by a storm. The angry torrents of water drops pounded at the windows and doors of the house while bright white lightning tore open the sky. It felt like being inside the head of a brilliant genius. 

These types of storms always put me back into place in regards to invincibility. We as a species may be advanced in more ways than any other species, but none of us can over power the force of Mother Nature. The ocean is the perfect mental picture. We all know that rip tides and under toes are so powerful that they can over power the best and strongest swimmers and surfers of our day. So perhaps we should respect her (our earth) more and follow the path she is constantly laying down for us.
