Stormy Weather   Reply to topic

Howdy Folks

Ole Jahoo here, just a sitt'in and watching the weather again. Seems they are calling for some foul weather again and we need a chicken for Sunday dinner. Oh, what's that mother? Not that kind of foul? You mean no chickens from heaven? Oh, sorry folks, never mind.

Heh, heh, well, I thought it was funny, regular knee slapper.

No, rains are upon us once again. Can't remember so much rain coming down. And storms, wow, had a regular titty twister over Memorial Day. Even took down the local gentlemen's club. lol, guess that pole dancer got to spinning a might too fast. Don't believe me, look it up. That poor Living Room.

So tonight, more storms are passing through and well, you know, find it funny, the man on the radio says to take cover in your bathroom, but really? Think this ole outhouse is going to blow away.

With nothing much to do besides holding the door closed, decided to pass the time thinking. Sometime thinking takes your mind off the problems at hand.

You see, I was thinking about the other night when the clouds turned dark, the winds picked up and it seemed like ya was inside a whirlpool, it was frightening, just wanna close your eyes and say "mommy make it go away". That's how bad it was, But the following morning I got up, went out on the back porch (over to the other side from the one we use to.....well water the grass) and was greeted by a cool, slightly breezy day. The sky, so clear, so blue, with just puffs of white scattered about. And the Sun, oh, my oh my, it was so bright and warm. Just like being wrapped in a blanket of goodness. It was something of inspiration.

Who knew just a few hrs before.....chaos.

Then got to thinking about that, you know while it wasn't apparent during the storm, you couldn't see the outcome when you were in the middle of it. But it did come, that bright sunny morning.

I got to wondering, guess that is what faith and trust is. When your in the middle of that storm, doors on the outhouse being pulled from your hands, you've got to hang on till the morning, have faith and trust that in the morning you will be filled with the warmth.

And isn't it that the way with friends? You know, just because you are friends, good friends can hurt each other, without ever meaning to. And then the skies will darken, and the wind blow. But you know, you have to hold on to each other, talk it through, have faith and trust in each other if you want to be greeted by the sun come morning.

Guess ya wondering what brings this up? Oh, don't rightly know why. Think it may be because I was just thinking about a friend, a dear, true friend. One that will say and do the right thing to protect their friends. And you know what? guess ole Jahoo sorta lost sight of the trust and faith, guess could say let himself get lost in that storm. And it took a friend, one that sacrificed themselves to come and rescue him, shelter him from that storm, restore the trust and faith. And don't you know it, with their help, he has seen the sun come out and has been filled with its warmth.

So, trying to figure out what I really want to say. Guess it all comes down to, have faith and trust and well, special friends, they will always get you through the storms.

Well, had my say and guess it is time to hit the hay........yes really. Need to feed the animals before I get on to bed.

Ya'll have a good one, and you know, Take Care
