Florida Cold
It is amazing how we change the standard for happiness. Here in Vero Beach it has gone below 65 degrees and a cold wind comes in from the North. We are all suffering. In Boulder, Colorado, we would be rejoicing in this break from the cold. In San Francisco we are rejoicing because it is raining. We have been in a drought out there. I believe that expectations influence our feelings of misery or joy. In Florida we expect warm. Our closets have shorts and tee shirts. Misery begins below 60 degrees, including wind. in Boulder, happiness is anything above freezing, and we have clothing to get through the expected sub freezing temperatures. In San Francisco, sun is no good for residents. Only tourists want sun now in California. The same people live side by side. One is happy. One is not. Expectations separate them.
