I hate it when storm clouds roll in, heralded by dazzling claps of thunder and lightning that boast an ocean of tears. This majestic performance of bad temper manages to overshadow my pathetic attempts at pouting. No one broods like Mother Nature, hence she steals all the attention I was sulking after. ↗

Chronic remorse, as all the moralists are agreed, is a most undesirable sentiment.

Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean. ↗
