Long April (summer) varieties

I like autumn and spring. I also like all of the four seasons as I like variety. So, a summer would be nice too.
Somehow I like this years (so far) Very long April-Summer. It’s a mixture of spring-temperatures, wind and (fortunately mostly relatively clement) storms, hefty or continual rain and a suddenly reappaering sunniness.
As a presage for ‘global cooling’ I am certainly afraid of this weather on the abstract and spiritual level. But as a concrete phenomenon it’s quite fascinating. Although ‘the weather’ is also classical small-talk, it can be watched, felt and lived with (and against). Hopefully we will still be able to cope with the weather and stand each other. Sometimes distant (us inside the house etc.), sometimes more direct – running around naked, dancing and swimming and lying on the genderless earth.

Oh, now it’s raining again. After only a short break rain came back. To me, it is nice to watch and hear the rain pouring or rippling (and sometimes it can be a concrete or abstract enjoyment) – as long as I know that there will a change and dryness will come again. So that the earth, in concrete our soils, our platforms for life (with their social stages etc.) and the constructions upon it, will not be washed away completely (as some eco- or christian- or other -religious people may speak out for).

Let the sunshine in – it’s the inner weather that counts. As long as there is a concrete outside weather we can, as humans and setting ideology aside, deal with.
