Towards the West
Towards the Northeast
Towards the East, where the thunderstorm is heading.
To the South it is grey.

I am sitting in the dining room, reading blogs and comments on my computer, while our dinner is cooking. The sun shines on our elm trees, but I nearly lift of from my chair - lightning, and an instant roll of terrific thunder. Wodan is throwing his daggers from the sky.
I was brought up with a true horror of thunderstorms: Pull out the plugs of the electricity equipments, close the curtains, close the windows, but alas - I have not adapted these fears. On the contrary, I walk to the window, I walk to the door and walk outside, because *HOW ON EARTH* could there be such a strike of lightning and thunder all at once, while the sun is shining at the same time at my trees? Is there a rainbow to be seen?
You see? I have an inquisitive mind.
The leaves that I find at my feet have been put together by nature, by the wind, not by me. The yellow leaves dropping since June .... draught, but also the process going on - I dread the upcoming End of August, summer and its light should last forever, be eternal.

The sunset reflects on the pine tree in the South, Wodan has disappeared with his anger.
