After The Storm

I don't love storms, but I love the feeling of peace, and the smell of the air that arises afterwards. Life has been a bit stormy lately. I took on a bit too much, forgetting that NO isn't a four letter word, and I also allowed drama to get me off balance. 

But right now, I'm feeling that peaceful post storm feeling. And I also have a better idea on what I need to do the next time a storm hits. But right now I'm enjoying the opportunity for self reflection and revelling in the joy that comes from expressing emotion, any emotion really, through art. 

"The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore." - Vincent Van Gogh
