It's definitely not something I wish for, but seeing as how there's not a damn thing I can do about them I try to be philosophical about the experience. But I've never found them scary, at least not the way I'd find, say, a guy with a big fucking knife coming at me scary. Some people feel betrayed or get mad at the earth or some shit like that, and I just can't. Once it's done, it's done, and I laugh and thank the Goddess I'm okay.

Maybe it's just too BIG for me to rage at, or maybe despite my pagan beliefs (or because of them) I just don't anthropomorphize events the way Christians do, who rail at their god whenever shit doesn't go their own way. I don't expect the Goddess to care about my little life, so this kind of thing never feels personal to me.

Um, kinda wandered off the mark there but yeah. Freaky experience is freaky.
