I feel like I'm fine for the other months, but I always seem to lose a little more life and vitality in the winter. A little something extra always seems to fade out.

Damn Kevin those two lines are hauntingly beautiful and shockingly poignant. I hope you find your sun, either internally or externally... I like it when you shine

I do like winter. Actually, I prefer it to summer. I like to have a walk on a cold clear winter day, with snow-covered fields and the sun shining so bright you can hardly see.

The trees are all bare

Tob, who's hoping for you spring will come soon

Don't forget -- according to Eliot, April is the cruelest month.

I kinda like winter, like Tob, but I'm sure the Texan spring will come around soon. Hang in there!

Sounds like you do have SAD to a degree. Vitamin D should help.

After such a long, touching blog post my reply seems rather inadequate.

Take heart, young one! Spring is not far off!

You should consider one of those lamps to give you some artificial sunlight

Awww I wish you all the luck to get through winter. I hate the cold too haha, but for some reason, I really wanna experience snow - even though I hate the cold hehe Dead trees and barren landscape...(aww...)I can imagine why you would think that winter is associated with death. Best of luck for the winters Kevin

Hey Steve, aww That's really sweet of you

I am feeling better, thanks

I agree with that. But that gives me the possibility to see what is behind and usually covered by the leaves.

Thanks Tob

Well, I've never had the joy of walking in a snow-covered field. That does sound lovely though!

That's very true about the Texan spring; it is right around the corner

Aww thanks, Dion!

Actually that's good advice. I used to take a Vitamin D supplement. Probably should start again.

I actually did consider that! I ended up deciding to just move my room around - which was fun and helpful in and of itself - so that my bed is directly in front of a window.

No snow for you either, huh Jovian? Eh, we'll experience it soon enough I suppose. I've been in mild snow before, but never anything notable. Certainly not "blankets of snow" style snow.

I used to feel like you did, but I've actually grown to like winter. Keep in mind I live in f**king Missouri, though.

I like it when there is a snow storm. Not a blizzard. A snowstorm. Everyone freaks out and runs out and cleans out the grocery stores, and when the "storm" comes (actually, it usually doesn't. The weather people are usually wrong) it's not some violent, rabid thing, like a thunderstorm. No. It's a consistent, peaceful falling of snow. Snow that blankets the earth and covers up all of it's imperfections, at least for a little bit. And how cool is it to be the first person to walk across newly fallen snow? Of course, there's the comical side, like when the dog (she's a girl) tries to go out and pee but can't squat without dipping her (whatever you call a female dog's vagina) in the snow.

And then there's the time-honored cliche, of reading, or typing on someone's blog, by the fire.

Sometimes you have to look a little deeper for the beauty.

That does really awesome and beautiful!

That does sound amusing! Poor dog.

I would like experience these cliches. I bet they are really fun.

Thanks, that's good advice.
