The true dichotomy in my life - I have much trouble with constant grey, cold winter weather, so that problems may seem insurmountable and worth crawling under the covers for...yet I can't explain how happy it makes me to wake up and look out the front window to the yellow winter grass, wet with the beginning of spring rains; and beyond, a pinkish grey mist hanging over the silent pond of empty brown trees and waterfowl.
I think the ground exudes some kind of promising warmth - the days will grow longer, the air hotter, and the people friskier.
