We have had one day after another without sun.
I don't know about you, but if you want to know how I am, just look out the window. If it's Sunny, I'm fine.
If it's dreary, cold, grey, rainy, then, I just feel gloomy. It is not unusual for most of us to qualify to be "depressed" in that situation.
Spring cannot come soon enough for me. And, I don't know if you feel the same way.
But, let me ask you this? Have you heard of Seasonal Affective Disorder (or S.A.D.)
We have a propensity for dialing-down when there is an inadequate amount of light.
Walk into a "dark house" (blinds shut, lack of windows, front doors closed) and I think that you will agree that you feel uplifted when the house is brighter. But when it is dark, we look to see what we can do to make the house brighter (lift shades, open blinds and doors). We don't paint our walls Black. We don't board up our windows. Because in addition to Winter's shorter days, we seek to add L.E.D. lights to our lamps and overhead lights. And, it is my opinion that this, alone, will increase our well-being and improve our health.
