Different Hats

Thunderstorms. It’s peaceful, dark, calming, and the sound of heavy rains pounding down from above sends a chill up my spine.

I get such a good feeling when I see the clouds above begin to change over to darkness and the thunder rumbles are getting closer.

I can’t explain why I enjoy thunderstorms, but something about them puts me into a relaxed state.

And here’s what I enjoy the most – getting caught in the rain, drenched by Mother Nature’s natural tears.

Growing up as a child my mom used to tell me that it was people in Heaven taking turns bowling up in the clouds and that’s why it thunders. Now as an adult, every time it thunders I immediately think to myself “strike”.

Here’s a quote that I really connect with:

“Some people feel the rain, others just get wet.”

For a long time I thought this quote originated from Bob Dylan, but I believe the credit belongs to a country singer named Roger Miller.

Now I can’t wait for thunderstorm weather.
