Ravaging winds and with lightning-like stealth, a small but concentrated tornado blemished the end of my own back country road a few days ago. It left downed telephone poles, a bruised but not broken Amish barn and uprooted trees in a surprised daze of relocation. Nature has the ability to bend, bust and destroy its creations as if they mean not a thing. These events are catastrophic and quite beautiful in their deep shades of energy and raw power. We as humans can build up, break down and synthesize most elements of the pure blue sky and lush green earth but it is the "stuff" in between and the massive monuments surrounding us that make life so utterly infatuating.
