Sun! Glorious Golden Sun!

Oh, Mr. Sun...This Christmas holiday has been so unusually sunny for BC...(sighs contentedly).  Here's hoping that it stick around for a while.  But...

It also reminds me that British Columbia is as beautiful as is it because we get so much rain.  My brief stint of living in Calgary several years ago made me blissfully thankful for all those dark, rainy days.  Yes, those rainy days often bring on the blues (or sometimes even the mean reds) for many of us, but the rain also brings us the lush, vibrant green trees, grass, the beautiful fragrant flowers...okay, so I do complain a lot when my hair becomes a massive unruly frizzball.  So I spend more time in my polka-dotted rain boots than is fashionable acceptable.  And I do suffer from the aforementioned blues (and more often, the mean reds) when the lack of Vitamin D becomes a bit much.  BUT the few sunny days like this are so much more worth it, when in all the sun's brilliance we see the stunning colours of British Columbia, and I have the rare opportunity to do my morning yoga in the giant sunbeam streaming through my living room window.  (Sighs contentedly once more)

Namaste.
