Spring in my Step

What is it about the changing of the season that stimulates a corresponding change within me?

When things either warm up or cool down, I can feel my whole psyche alter. I get excited. I feel as though I've been given the proverbial clean slate by the weather gods.

I wonder if others share this experience.

If so, I think there should be a national changing-of-the-seasons holiday. It would be difficult, because it would be different every year. Because, I am not suggesting that we have a day off on the official first day of spring according to the almanac. Rather, I am referring to that day when everybody knows that different weather is on the way. That first day that you either need to bust out the tank tops or the jeans jacket. You know it when you walk out the door and feel it. And, I think it is an absolute travesty that everyone is not off work on these days. These days are refreshing to the mind and spirit, and it should be an inalienable right that all people have these days to frolic and enjoy the feelings that come in such temperate bliss.
