Which is the best part of winter: the sun setting at 5pm every day, or it literally hurting when you go outside? - eviltoast

    It creates such a calming atmosphere. The grey sky during the day, the darkness setting earlier and the white sky far into the evening when it’s snowing is so therapeutic for me for some reason. It gets me in a state where it’s enough just to be alive.

    And the biting cold is such a pleasant sensation, especially when going for a run. And there are no mosquitos. Winter is all I like manfested in nature.

      a funny thing i’ve realized is that a big part of the reason for the calm atmosphere is that cars are slowed down and their incessant noise is absorbed by the snow.

      Winter is great because it makes urban areas more less hostile.
