Sunlight and the Approaching Storm

Yesterday morning was bright, but by about 10:00 rain was pelting down. You can see the contrast in weather systems, as well as the strange juxtaposition of sunlight and dark skies, in this photo I took around 8:30 or so on my way to (guess where?) Starbucks. Life is like that sometimes, isn’t it? Sunny and stormy all in one day. It can be hard to prepare for getting out and facing the world. So many decisions to make: what to wear, what to pack, whether to crawl back into bed again and just wait until tomorrow to start fresh 🙂

About Katherine Wikoff

I am a college professor (PhD in English, concentration rhetoric) at Milwaukee School of Engineering, where I teach film and media studies, political science, digital society, digital storytelling, writing for digital media, and communication. While fragments of my teaching and scholarship interests may quite naturally meander over to my blog, this space is intended to function as a creative outlet, not as part of my professional practice. Opinions are my own, etc.

    Very true. Most days are like that – sunny and stormy. Great metaphor.
