Ever notice how sometime in December a gloom settles in over life? The weather just gets yucky, for lack of a better word. The sky turns gray, it's cold, and it's wet. Sometimes it can really affect life. I've known people who get seasonal depression, when the weather goes south so does their attitude. Personally, after a while I just go stir crazy being stuck inside. Today it's just rainy outside, I wish it would just snow because at least you don't get soaked when you go outside and it's pretty. Through the winter it just seems like there's a sense of gloom.
Our lives can be a lot like that. Sometimes we just enter a season where everything seems dull and gloomy. Not really full on depression, just a sense of the blah's. We kinda withdraw to ourselves and take it easy, being a bit less active and spending more time hiding under the covers. A lot of the time we can't really do anything about it, we just have to hold out for a sunny day again. We have to find a warm place inside that gloom, a place where we can find some warmth and light to hold out for the day when the skies clear again.
Not sure where all that came from, maybe it's just the rainy day outside. I can't say that at the moment things are gloomy in my life, but I do find myself seeking to withdraw a bit to take it easy and rest. Good weather is coming and I want to be ready to play hard again.
