Distant Thunderstorm over Western Plains | Alone in the Cabin | Calm Before the Storm

🌩️ The Story I Want to Tell
Far across the western plains, a dark storm brews on the horizon. Lightning flashes behind the distant hills while thunder rolls like a slow heartbeat of the earth. Inside a lone cabin, a lantern flickers as rain begins to fall — steady and calm. The sound of thunder and soft rain blend into a soothing lullaby, wrapping you in comfort as the wild storm whispers through the night
