We had the strangest storm last night. It was mostly over the lake but extended out on the sides a bit. The wind kept circling and there was hail the size of marbles. The rain came down in between so heavy that I was completely soaked in the 10ft from my car to the front door. The lightning was absolutely gorgeous and the clouds were spinning into the most amazing shapes. I wish it had been so much more of a storm. They make me feel alive.


Random thought of the day:
Do we really have control over everything in our lives; our fears, our choices, etc. or are some things beyond that and we just find ourselves adapting?

I wish we had storms like that here. I love lightening, but we don't get it all that often.

I think I am an adaptable creature that tries to controls the things in my life.

We had a weird storm this week too. I'm in Montana for the week... been planning it for months. I was totally excited to finally get to do a nude photoshoot at a ghost town. Then Monday night a storm comes through and we get 6 inches of SNOW! The nearby town that has a very primitive ghost town in the mountains got 20 INCHES! That seems like a lot of snow for May. So much for all my outdoor plans for the week. The snow is mostly gone now, and I have a shoot planned for tomorrow morning with two women that want to do some nudes on horseback. If its not raining too hard. Should be interesting.

Hmm, Control... When I was your age, I seriously believed that it was possible to live to be 300 years old. But to do so, one would have to practice Yoga, meditate, etc, to have complete control over their mind and body. I soon realized that the physical part wasn't as difficult as the mental. I still believe that physically the body could live that long, but few people have the self-control to do what is needed. Including me. So now I learn to adapt to what I've let myself change into from the lack of will.
