Weather watching...

I like storms. I can sleep through them. I love to watch them. They are out there... not inside where I feel safe.

Sometimes though, the storms come to my safe zone. And I am so good at taking cover. It's a skill i used to pride myself on. But for the first time i have to face this one. I cannot run and hide. For the first time, i know it is worth it to stick my neck out of the hole, bring others in to safety, regardless of how much of a beating i take... regardless of how much it hurts.

So here i am, trying to stand, watching as the eye draws closer. Here I am trying to stand it...
