Hurricanes

I like having control over every aspect of my life, or at least thinking i do. I couldn't deal with the helplessness i would feel if i ever experienced a hurricane. I can't even handle the weather we've had the past three days, just average rain fall, nothing big. I get depressed just from the grey skies and not being able to do anything outside. I can't even imagine what a hurricane would be like.

I think the victims of these massive things are brave. I would never be able to tough it out and stay near my home, let alone come back to see the damage done if i had left. It would completely devastate me to actually be able to see the loss, knowing that all the things i had once owned are gone. Every single thing i have in my possession is important to my well-being, no matter how small. Most of all, i'd completely lose it if anyone i knew was lost to the hurricane. I would never be able to stop thinking about it. There's no doubt in my mind that i'd pack up and leave as soon as i could, just to leave it behind.
