Dust-laden skies the colour of pumpkin are not a frequently-occurring phenomenon here. Still, when my husband was urging me to go outside and have a look, my reaction was "Eugh, no thanks." :o The sky returned to its usual blue after a few hours, and then there was a lot of sweeping-up of rust-coloured gritty dust to be done. I'd rather clean up after a dust storm than a bushfire, though.

I am used to the occasional dust storm, although they are a bit of an inconvenience. Especially for example; when your car becomes covered in dust.

It's worse when you get rain and a dust storm at the same time, it practically rains specks of mud. We've had that on a few occasions, some recently.
Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

where i live, we get storms like that every august. not a big deal to me, i kinda like them cause it means rain is coming. sometimes it rains mud sideways with the sun shining.  :zoinks:

i can imagine that people would think the world was ending there, as ive seen out of towners here flip out about the monsoon storms. i imagine i would think it was pretty lame, if i wasnt used to it.



feix ma spellan. ai nide halp. coz i caent duet.
