Personal Recount on STORM !
Fear is inside everyone. When we are young, we are fearful of everything. During my childhood time, I tucked into my mother's arms to free myself from fear. I was fearful of everything from crawling insects to thunderstorm. Storm is always followed by a chaos of wind, water and noise. My mother used to tell me that storm is a severe weather which can be marked by wind, thunder and lightning. Whenever there is a storm my mum would close the windows and the sound of the wind "Howling" would give me Goosebumps. The ominous clap of cloud would be very scary. When I looked up the sky I would see big cauliflower clouds were boiling up. It will hammer down me. The thunder would give a loud "boom" sound. It would be an earsplitting crack. The dancing shadow of the trees by the winds would give me a wrong thought that the storm has formed a monster to chase me. When I think about those times now I would laugh at myself. But as I grow older, I began to accept the storm as a weather condition. Whenever I hear the thunderstorm, I could get myself a chill down on my spine not because of the fear but the weather itself.
