Life is a Storm.

It’s beautiful, frightening, paradoxical, worrying, exhilarating, enticing, wonderful, horrible, breath-taking and gut-wrenching.

When it approaches you will get swept off your feet, get flung into a building, raised above the clouds, slammed face first into the ground, and lifted higher than you could imagine.

This storm will make you cower in fear as it passes by and will make time stop still when it raises you into the sky.

It will wrench your heart as easily and quickly as it will destroy a building, and turn agony, pain and sadness into nothing but rubble.

It will make you feel like you can take on the world as it gives you wings that take you further than you ever imagined, and will rip them from you and slam you into the ground so hard you never want to get up again.

Life is a mess of experiences that break you and shape you, that let you fly and make you fall, that crush you underneath and raise you above the highest clouds.
