Sledding, making snow angels, building snowmen and just playing outside in the snow were all fun activities as a child. As an adult I look at snow as a major inconvenience, I hate driving in it. But then I look out the window and see how beautiful the world looks all dressed in white and a little bit of that childhood love of it all creeps back into my heart.

Emil,
You said a lot about the wonderfulness of season change and the beauty of fall and winter. But every time I end up in winter weather back in Wisconsin I remember that the beauty of winter is best realized from California!

I love Emil’s writing, I am not a fan of Winter. After the first good snowfall and I go “how pretty”, I’m done and it can go away. I hate being layered in clothes, I would rather I never ever be cold (and wet). I like the sun, love all the other seasons and wait out the Winter. Winter complicates things and I believe I’m built to hibernate through it. It makes me sleepy.

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to appreciate each season for what it has to offer: summer has long days and baseball, fall the changing of the leaves, winter has the holidays and opportunities for staying inside, eating hearty food and napping, and spring has all the beautiful flora blooming. I do live in a temperate climate so being too cold or too hot isn’t usually an issue, so my issues with each season have more to do with the associations they have for me.

In Summer I love Winter- in Winter, I hate it. I’m very anxious for Spring and warmer days!
