At the time, I thought part of the reason for my calm was because something was going to happen which would stir things up, which would result in change. Realising that mother nature still had more power than man, than those who decide how our lives should be, was somehow comforting.

They can be hard to pin down, but I find you shouldn't overthink.  Sometimes a stray thought will enter my head, something vague, hard to pin down and I'll feel anxious.  What I do, is ignore it, and concentrate on those things I *know* are pressing issues and problems.  If I work on the problems I know, then the vague anxieties become less of a problem.
