Sacred landscape: Bryce Evason

In the Landscape book the author talks about a thunderstorm and the power that it can have. Last summer me and my friends were outside on a walk because we were tired of sitting in the house and out of no where it began to rain. The rain started slowly and progressively got worse and worse until we were standing in the middle of a full fledged thunder and lightning storm. I had been inside for tons of storms before that and had thought about the splender of thunder and lightning but it was completely different being outside. The night was warm so the cool rain was actually a nice change in temperature and the lightning was unbelievable to watch. The power of the storm left me no choice but to think about where such a thing could come from. The noise and lights were enough to shake the very ground. Soon after we realized that the storm was getting pretty bad we decided to go back inside but the experience was life altering and put the idea of power into perspective.
