Wow...!! I guess I am alone in this one...I HATE Fall!! Summer is my season through and through!! I find fall so depressing......everything in dying...the trees are beautiful with their colors but it depresses me because they are just going to sleep for the winter...I don't see anything "happy" about that....
I like it for about a week when I can wear sweatshirts and jeans and socks and sneakers again...but then it just gets windy and dark and cold and that brings me down...There is nothing to look forward to but the first snow. And then after the first snow, comes Christmas, which is stressful for my family because we don't have alot of money but we try to give the kids in my family a great Christmas...so money is always tight...and heat bills go through the roof...and the days are so short...you go to work in the dark and you come home in the dark and the only time you see any sunshine is if you go outside at lunchtime....everything is brown and bare...I despise Halloween. Skeletons and spiderwebs and witches and ghosts and ghouls scare me...I hate the negative feeling Halloween brings to the whole month of October. It's all about death and destruction and negativity....YUCK...
ON THE OTHER HAND, (don't eant to be Miss Negative over here ) I L O V E summer!!! LOVE IT!! It's so gorgeous, all the trees are green and thriving and ALIVE! Life is moving forward...The days are long, the sun is bright and close....Everyday you wake up, the sun is shining and saying "Godd Morning!! Here I am! It's going to be a nice sunny day! Get outside and enjoy yourself!! EXPLORE!! I'm from the Northeast so it never gets "too hot" This summer we had over 30 days in the 90s which is alot for us...but I loved every minute of it!!!! It just makes you want to jump in the river, swim, play, love life!! To me, heaven is summer!! You can walk out of the house in sandals, shorts, a t-shirt, no makeup, your hair in a ponytail, nice comfortable, relaxed....the way life should be...! I can understand why those of you in Arizona or SoCal wouldn't like it but than again, you don't have the winters we have here....I'm from Syracuse NY and we often get the most snow of anywhere in the WORLD! Don't get me wrong, I STILL prefer winter over autumn, even with the snow! But, where I am from, EVERY SINGLE DAY that the sun is out and it is fairly warm is appreciated...we take full advantage of it every chance we get!! Festivals, parties, picnics, tons of parks, everyone has boats and camps and holds BBQs and summer is just such a HAPPY time in my part of the world!!!! Fall is pretty but depressing, winter is long but a fact, spring is hopefulness and exciting....SUMMER IS BLISS!!!!!!!!! One would think that if I love summer so much I would move South where summers are longer right? Well, my brother lives in Virginia where it is much much warmer but people there don't express the JOY for the warm weather that I experience at home in the summer...they take it for granted and are never outside....I guess I need to say that the L O N G wonters in Syracuse make everyone in the area L O V E the warm weather...we are all outside and happy and it's one big party and I LOVE it. Memorial Day to Labor Day..... Swimma (I can't remember the rest of her screen name) is also from Syracuse and I am sure she sees where I'm coming from too....This is my least favorite time of year...it depresses me....It's my boyfriend's favorite time though...
This is a great topic...I love to see how people view the seasons. Although I am the lone fall-disliker! LOL!!!
