But not the same can be said for all of us.
After six months of chilly and cold weather, though the spring season is finally upon us we all have different views of what to look forward to.
Some people enjoy the sunny longer days and lighter clothing, while for others it is just going to be a very long next six months.
This is because our summers are known to get pretty hot.
For me personally I do not cope well with burning in the sun, the heat, being constantly thirsty, having to sweat all day and night and the heat rash.
I love my sleep, therefore when it’s hot, I find that no matter what I do, I end up tossing and turning all night long until the morning.
But in winter it is cooler and I enjoy myself as the nights are longer, people’s bodies are covered up in appropriate clothing covering all the necessary parts and when I am cold it’s easier for me to get warm.
However, there are some things that I am looking forward to during this time of the year.
As this is a time for all things new in nature, I love seeing trees blossoming, the bright colours when you step outside but, most importantly, what gives me the greatest joy is seeing and hearing the rain.
The look and sound of the rain gives me some inner peace that I cannot explain in words.
It is also a beautiful time to explore the outdoors with friends and family, whether by having a picnic, braai or just enjoying a day at a theme park or zoo.
And because most of the people in my circle enjoy the outdoors, I am sure that although I am not particularly looking forward to this time of the year, spending time with friends and family will be something I won’t be able to complain about.
Because at the end of the day, for me it is those beautiful little memories and experiences that make life worthwhile.
