Nothing like a storm, a revealation about what's really needed, ...

..., and what one can very well do without. The gifts of technology, layers separating us from the essentials, creating new cravings, substitutes which lay claim over real needs.

Welcome the temptation, it is a way to find the divine.

Unless ones resolve is tested, the real strength of the solution that's supposed to work, really remains unknown. Test how much of what ones feels is need, and how much is the desire for something new. A need may be masked, but has to be met, one way or the other. For the rest the solution likely lies within, a source inextinguishable, meeting one type of fire from without with one from within.

Need or novelty

What is needed first, then the novelty. Unless it's novelty that is needed. Reversing the order may feel good, usually for a time.
