Today
This post is part of Contest: 300 characters about today - 1
Today's a nice day, filled with sunshine, much like the weather we have had since the beginning of this month. What's different is that there are few cool breezes. These winds brings a contrast of warmth and refreshing. As we approach summer, some people have already added various summer activities.
While in your regions you are entering summer, in my country, which is summer all year round, we are entering rainy periods. We are entering times when the rains are causing a lot of havoc in different regions. Because of the same irresponsibility of man, but the fact is that the rains cause many disasters.
I hope your summer weather is what you have been waiting for and you have a weather that little by little is the best. May you be able to do all the activities you do in these times.
I am not waiting for a particular season. But, I prefer when the weather is not too cold or too hot. I guess that goes for most of us..
If you ask me, I prefer a climate that is not hot, but also does not have stormy rains. It never snows here. I also love to see flowers all year round and I only get that with climates that are neither rainy nor intensely sunny.
Do you believe it doesn't rain during Spring, Summer and Fall? LOL I can't say it's summer it's pretty cold.
I think it only rains during the rainy season in those regions. Here it rains only because of the storms that come through the air currents. The rest of the year it's just sun, sun and more sun.
We have no rainy seasons only rain the entire year. LOL
I could use some sun, sun and sun and more sun.. we have a huge lack of vitamins due to the weather.
Wow, you're just like us but in reverse. We here, pure sunshine, and you pure rain.
When I was a teenager I loved the sun. I had many years of beach, and many sunscreens on my skin. Then as an adult, I was never afraid of the sun. I used sunscreen for many years and at some times I couldn't use it because of the shortage.
The worst of all was that I started to get lesions on my face, and all over my skin. The spots on my skin with topical medications resolved but the spots on my face turned out to be carcinomas. That is over now, I am forbidden to receive direct sunlight but it is impossible for me to receive it. In some cases I have to put on my sunscreen and go out in the strong sun, sometimes 40 degrees, and even more. I don't want any more cancer of any kind. But if I am alive I am willing to do that. I just try to expose myself to the sun as little as possible.
I congratulate all those who get so much sun and nothing ever happens to their skin.
Sounds like a hot chocolate ....
I prefer black coffer, Arabica, especially from Gayo Highland of Central Aceh. But your description of the day there is sweet like a hot chocolate ... @ronnie10 ,, :D
I sometimes order hot chocolate, when the cafe I attend doesnt serve Americano or Espresso. So you see, this are two my favorite bverages...
I am happy to see you here. I still wait for summer, and if it's so cold I am not in the mood to plan a holiday. Are you? It's more like fall, and wind reminds me of trees dropping their leaves, carrying firewood, Sint Nicholaas and hot chocolate with marzipan. The only good things about those long winters but cocoa is getting rare not to mention the prices asked.
I remember how years ago people planned their summer vacation before the winter started. It was normal to do so one year in advance.
Times have changed.
Thanks.. I got to this community through your posts. Then, I saw this contest. So, I decided to add in an entry..
Holiday plans? I guess those planned things happen when you had them in mind prior to the holiday. I don't see much of that with anyone except when they are travelling.
This reminds me of a quote, "change is the only constant".
Thanks for the quote.. first time I hear about it. It's good to see you and I am happy I started with this community again. It's kind of interesting that the same people are still on Steemit. I hope that we can do the same as back then, without all the fuss.
A great evening!
First time? I was thinking that it is one of those quotes that has been shared way too many times.
I don't know all the details about starting this community. But, I think that you have enough reach on the platform to make this successful.
Nice evening!
I had never heard of the quote you mention, it is good to know it.
I have many years that I don't enjoy vacations either. Neither money nor time to go on vacation. @wakeupkitty and @ronnie10
It's the same here but they say just organising a trip is half of the fun. I remember a contest on Steemit where you could tell whom you would like to travel with and describe what you would do and where to go to. I organised that one, flight included LOL
I remember once you went on vacation with your children. You told many stories and anecdotes about the trip. You bought a car that later turned out not to be very good. Now I don't know if you still have it or if you changed it. I don't remember that?
@ wakeupkitty was saying the same thing about the quote..
Well, as long as you can find joy in what you are doing, it doesn't matter much whether it is a vacation or not. Does it?
A vacation wouldn't be bad, but I can't afford it right now. I'm fixing a lot of things in my place and I don't have money for anything else.
I would like to go to a place with lots of trees, rivers, hiking. Just in my thoughts.
A big part of happiness is working towards what you want.
Do you agree?
I think I understand what you are saying. It is very comforting that with the fruits of our labor we can buy the things we need. We can't get all of them, but we can supply many needs. Of course, that brings a lot of satisfaction.

I like what you describe, a sunny and still fresh day. In my country it may be rainny some of these days and we still feel kind of hot.
If you are enjoying the rain, then at least there is something to look forward to, despite the hot weather =P..
thanks for passing by,
When it's hot and there's high humidity in the air it can be uncomfortable.
But I like the rain, most of all if I'm home, despite some complications it can bring outside, 'cause it's part of a natural process and it feels nice to listen and look a it, I also used to like walking in the rain.

The weather definitely exerts subtle influences on us. Sometimes it encourages us to get active, but other times it compels us to stay in bed.
