Ahhhh another soul who LOVES Thunderstorms!!! It is something I completely miss about living in Kentucky. The dark clouds roll in announcing that it is on its way!! Then that first LOUD clap of thunder that still makes you jump - the wind that blows just enough to feel wonderful…. After that the rain starts with a few heavy drops until it rains so hard you cannot have a conversation because of the sound. There is nothing like watching how lightning spreads from one side of the sky to the other and spreads its tendrils wildly like arms flailing…. And like you as long as there are no damages, or problems that sometimes happen with storms I love watching a storm! Thanks- I knew all the words but the “final” one!

Great read!!

Got a good one for inspired? Cause that word isn't really capturing how I feel

I love your post 💜 and like to share what I learned from it.

The "pleasure in being scared" is the same as the fear of bliss, and life is miraculous if I allow feelings to flow between opposites, i.e. if I allow my body to be in its integrity 🐣

Wonder in Dutch = miracle.

Ohh love the thunderstorms! The loud crackle, the changing colors in the sky, seeing the lightning shooting through the sky, the wind blowing-almost cloud like in the air. And I sit on the porch and watch it as the rain starts to pour down from the heavens!

Love your work Grant. Have you considered including a signature or ID tag on the pix?

I would love to forward /sharevwith ppl but I would not always be including artist info or sources, bc I rely on information being on the art.

So im at a cross roads - really wanting to share but holding back because even if I add your info to my share, it doesn't guarantee it won't be forwarded with your name etc.
