Winter Blahs

This winter has been a real bummer for me. When the sun doesn't shine for days on end, I begin to feel like the gray skies I see out there. When the sun comes out and the skies turn blue, I feel it and my whole spirit and mood pick up and I feel great. Finally it's February. Sometimes it's the worst winter month of all. It always reminds me of Dad dying when I was a senior in high school. I've been boosted with the warmer weather we've been having. Thirty to forty degrees is a regular heat wave and I'm fine with it.

Pretty soon it will be spring. S-P-R-I-N-G. My favorite time of year. The whole earth is reborn after its long winter dying. And I feel reborn along with it.
