Springs Change

So, spring has arrived, after a couple of false starts. The warmer weather has been nice, and its been fun to have a picnic and play badminton and Frisbee (even thought they have come with some minor injuries). At times I almost felt like I shouldn't be enjoying it so much because I really do like winter, but the thing is change is nice. Especially familiar, predictable change. Why is that? Why are some changes anticipated and others dreaded even though neither is necessarily bad. I have been more or less dreading the changes that come with graduation. Ultimately I think it comes back to familiar versus unfamiliar change. Fog is inherently more frightening than sunny skies for those of us who are diurnal. I suppose this is natural but I don't think it is necessarily.
