In Finland, my beloved homeland, according to most, THE WEATHER SUCKS at the moment (or actually most of the time). And I do not mean only the weather as it is in its purest form (halfway March and the spring is not even close...) but also the "weather" as a metaphor of the general atmosphere.
Just by glancing today's news one sees that the overall "forecast" is soooo negative: Finnair is yet again sacking its labour, food prices are going up as the inflation is getting stronger, horse meat is invading Ikea, even the politicians in the Green party are having their share of the corruption cake as minister(s) bypass taxes while renovating their houses...
Not to mention the somewhat ridiculous (at least according to me) public discussion about gay rights and matrimony...It is cold, dark, windy and snowy. Why bother, when the weather is going to suck anyways? It's too cold to go outside...I hate hate hate winter!!!! Blablablaaa...
It's easy to find excuses to bitch about things rather than just be open and let the gayness wash over you. Exception to the rule is perhaps a situation in which something is really groundbrakingly wrong (such as the attic floor collapsed under you and you fell six meters to the staircase) – and even in those cases there are true Gizzzing heroes who won't let an avalanche kill their spirit.
It took me a weekend of inspiring ladies and a shit-storm of snow after a week of amazing spring weather to realize that. Happiness comes to those who are willing to take it in.
So y'all, be a bit more gay and enjoy the weather – no matter what it is like.
agree with every word ;)
