Out Running The Storm

Would you rather wait it out or outrun it? I choose the latter. On my recent drive from Atlanta to Mississippi, there was a thunder storm so intense, I could barely see out the window. I could have pulled over, but my anxiousness and impatience to be out of the car, pushed me through. I drove in these conditions for at least half an hour. Was this safe? No, probably not. But I thought it may be less safe to pull over when over drivers couldn't see me. It became a game, to see the road ahead, and get to my destination safely. Anyways, so what I'm trying to say is, what do you do when there is a storm? Not just a literal storm, but a life storm: when things are crashing around you, and you can barely see the path in front of you. I'm sure it can be approached differently, but I would rather not just sit there and let the world decide for me. Push through the storm. That may mean one makes irrational decisions sometimes, just to make a decision. But who cares? It usually works out. I say push through the storm - it'll test your strength. For the better.
