This existence we call life is all about experiencing contrast, light & dark, heat & cold, but good & bad are more relative. Driving home, into the dark clouds ahead of me, I'm awesome by the beauty and power of the storm. It's all about perspective...

crowbarmama - everythign allright?

Hi @felix.herrmann! Thanks for checking on me. I've been focusing on my health and emotional well-being, trying to get a good handle on that before starting to post again. The late night editing sessions were so fun, but my body was paying the price. I do miss posting and the friendly interactions though. I hope all is well with you!

Riding the bears - hope we will have a fresh Start in 2019 for steem.

Good luck and all the best!

I agree with you so much! I love me a gloomy, misty day on occasion, it's good for replenishing my creative juices for some reason. Give me a slice of dark and stormy perspective any time! Thanks for sharing such a lovely sentiment and picture:)

Wow Mama! What an amazing picture.

And you're so poetic, I enjoy your positive words, and feel good outlook.

We love you being a part of our group <3

We've certainly seen some incredible cloud formations recently! Glad you caught a photo of some of them.
