Dear God,
I know the possibility of someone getting hit by lightning during a thunderstorm is really small but please please please don't let the lightning hit me because I really don't want a close casket funeral.Thank you. Amen.
And that is while simultaneously hiding underneath the blanket and covering my ears. I was in that moment between wakefulness and sound sleep and I laughed at myself when I realized what i had uttered.
though my brain was already wide awake, i kept my eyes close in a vain attempt to a fall asleep again. The loud clasp of thunder and flashes of lightning proved to be stronger than my desire to sleep though. I got so scared that I was actually imagining our house getting hit by lightning or any of my things exploding from it. silly, i know.
I've always been scared by thunder and lightning especially when I am alone. Although I know for a fact that getting hit by lightning is not as common as getting hit by a car, i still don't like it when I hear the heavens growling in displeasure.
If I hate the rain, Ihate thunderstorms even more. It drives me insane. It makes me want to run under the bed and hide. It scares me like it always did when I was a kid. It reminds me of horror movies wherein everything bad that's supposed to happen always happens during a dark night with cold winds, pouring rains and really loud thunderstorms. It makes me imagine God being so angry at something and striking down everyone. Then it makes me imagine myself, hit by lightning, unrecognizable and turned to ash.
I know it's silly but I can't help it. IT'S JUST SO SCARY!
