Beauty in the Storm

The energy outside was dynamic as the storm clouds gathered over the mountains to the east. Those luminous clouds brought much need rain. But it also brought to my awareness the beauty in the storm. As my perception of things around me changes and the layers are peeled away there is insight, awareness and subtle shifts. I notice how often people are unhappy with the weather. Aah, but if one can just stop and breathe and experience it, there is beauty.  Even the wind has beauty.  Watch the resilience of the trees as they dance in the wind.
