I felt it even before it started to totally consume me. First, it was an indistinct stirring deep within the recesses of my soul. I ignored it because there were more pressing matters that occupied my time and energy. Things, thoughts and incidents that I felt that time were my top priorities because they control my present and they could shape the future.
Although at the back of my mind, I was fully aware that something was amiss.
Then it started. The stirring turned into distinct whirling and twirling and then rapidly shook my entire being when it suddenly erupted as a full blown turbulence. Sometimes, I feel this is why I have an almost sick preoccupation with storms and typhoons recently. It probably mirrors my recent journey and current state. (See how storms form and develop.)
The storm hasn’t blown over yet.
While waiting for the winds to die down, the rains to cease and practically everything to blow over, I have been reflecting where it would leave me then. They say that what’s good about storms are : 1) it is sure to blow over its strength, no matter how strong the wind or how hard the rains are; and 2) it will not leave you in the same way.
Thus, I somehow know that a lot of things will change after this. In preparation, I thought of starting to change some, if not all, facets of my life to keep in stride with the changes that’s happening around me. This is one of those changes and shifts.
