Only a test

Don't be afraid.

It's only a test.

Hate those warning sirens.Here they are tested the 1st Saturday of each month at noon.Just heard it.

In April of 2011 I was living in Roanoke,Alabama during a tornado outbreak across the south.The siren was blasting continuous as rolling thunder with heavy rain and wind moved through.

It was around 10 pm and just laying in bed I thought maybe this could be the beginning of the end.

Strangely I wasn't scared just at peace with it all.

I thought of WW2 and Germany bombing England on those nightly raids,the air raid sirens and how that must have been a terrifying sound to hear.

Again as the sun shines brightly on this June day in Georgia it was just a test.

Thank God.
