It's wintertime and I live in the Midwest. Need I say more? Snow up to HERE and so cold it's deadly. I hear so many people complain about the weather. "I hate the snow." "It's too cold to do anything." "I hate it when it gets so slippery."
You know--you live in the Midwest. It's going to snow, it's going to be cold, and it's going to be slippery. You don't have to love it but at least accept it. Remember, it only temporary. Very soon it will be all green and growing, then it will be too HOT to be outside and too HUMID to do anything fun, and ... You get the idea.
We can't change the weather. All we can do is try to put on a good weather attitude about it. There are so many things we can't change that upset us: religious dogma, world politics, illness or death. I try hard to ignore those things that trip my anger button and I try to let mainly positive vibes into my day. It's fine to get angry and DO something, but don't just be angry to no purpose.
And if you don't like the weather, you can move. It may seem insurmountable to find a job somewhere else, uproot your family, and do it, but trust me, it can be done. I've done it 28 times in my life and several of those moves were across country.
Just face it with the right attitude, and you'll be amazed what a difference it makes in your day.
