So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

As we drove through the city, green lightning flashed above us about every thirty seconds. "Heat lightning," my friend said. I'd never heard of it. She said she couldn't explain the science behind why it happened, just that it did when it was really hot. We were supposed to watch Star Wars at Zebo's house, but when we arrived we decided to stay outside and watch the lightning instead. Like idiots. We moseyed across the street to the little park there and lay on the hillside. There were enough large trees around that we figured we were fairly safe. Besides, the lightning had so far been cloud to cloud. The green lightning flashed on, without rain or thunder. Then the bolts started growing in width and turning bluish. Thunder cracked not far away. The wind whipped through the tops of the trees. If ever an alien were to crash land on the Earth and then offer to give us super powers, this would be the moment. Instead we saw a huge thick blob of lightning growing in the sky above us. Instead of being bolt-like, this was like looking at lightning straight on. And perhaps we were, because the light grew to unbearable brightness and then went out. Immediately following, just over our right shoulders, a clap of thunder cracked louder than I've ever heard. All of us jumped up as one mind and ran into the house, hearts unnaturally pounding and a nervous chilly feeling throughout our bodies. Yeah, we're pretty much huge idiots. But when lightning comes so infrequently, you have to take it for all it's worth! 2 Comments. Ah worry not, I've done something of the sort. Sometimes I'm simply awe struck by weather events. In such situations, there's a certain comfort in thunder and I would label the feeling as one of sublimity. The sublime danger you present to yourself by being outside in a storm, the unimaginable truly the full potential of power of nature. Possibly, the vibrations caused by thunder that find their way inside and that's something that comforts me in a way. I feel very much alive at that point. But there's a line of course and the clap of thunder that made you go inside over stepped that line. :3 » yourcupoftea on 2008-07-19 01:00:18 Heat lightning?? I don't know that exists! re: mangosteen is seasonal fruit.. I don't know where else you can find it though.. » Nuttz on 2008-07-19 10:45:34
