Some recent postings have gotten me thinking about light and its effect on my mood.
I am in my office as I write this and I am feeling pretty good - I have a window and I can see the western sky - loads of sunlight.
As a kid I hated to be indoors - I was a little bit like a pet - my parents put me out in the morning and I came home at night.
At home my wife and daughters are always nagging me about putting on lights in the house - I am so obsessed with lights that I feel the need to turn on lamps in rooms that I am not in - my house is always lit up even when I am out somewhere.
My absolutely favorite weather is cool, clear days with loads of sunlight.
I wonder if I have been trying to self-medicate all these years.
