56- I cannot stop the rain
A gloomy, rainy day in Big White, British Columbia. I decided not to let the gray sky bring me down.
Today was one of those gloomy days. I woke up to a gray sky, and even though I opened the curtains, it was still dark inside.
The cold and humidity brought to British Columbia by Hurricane Poly, combined with humid air moving up from the Gulf of Mexico, have given us so much rain. And there is more to come.

When the weather is beautiful, it feels easy to get outside, go for a hike, take photos, or work on something I have been planning. But on days like this, when everything outside looks gray and wet, I just feel depleted. It is interesting how much sunlight can change the way I feel!
Their scariest part is that as we move towards winter, I will have more and more of these cold gray days. Does that mean feeling more depressed for four or five months at least? I cannot take that for sure. I have to think of something that will energize me during those cold gray months. These months are a valuable chunk of my life that once gone they will not come back. I know I never should ask a chunk of my life to pass as fast as possible because they feel hard and dark.
