Does anyone like me think that the autumn months bring?
Misfortune happens to all of us and can befall any time of the year. Sometimes there may seem to be a pattern, but that can usually be chalked up to mere coincidence or one LOOKING for a pattern. For instance, I could say that spring and summer are bad seasons for me this year. In early spring the transmission of my car went out; in April I hit a deer and totaled the front end of my truck; in June my mother’s house with many of my belongings in it was destroyed by flooding; and three weeks ago my grandmother passed away. However, the year before, winter and autumn were my bad seasons. Have you ever heard of seasonal depression? A lot of people may notice they’re in a “funk” during the fall and winter, and it’s believed this may be caused by chemical [hormonal] changes in the brain as a result of our varying exposure to sunlight during certain times of the year (typically: less in autumn and winter, more in spring and summer).
