I grew up in a cloudy, snowy, cold region of the country, and the dismal weather definitely affected my mood and contributed to my depressions. I could understand when I lived there why other people would get annoyed or cross without clear causes at their own lives, at others, at life in general. I sometimes felt trapped and hopeless there.

But now I've moved to a sunny, warm, and temperate area of the country. The sun shines 90% of the days. My own mood has improved and I do not feel as depressed as I did in the other geographical region. I am usually more optimistic and hopeful living here. But, ironically, I still run across others who are annoyed and angry seemingly without causes. Yet this time I cannot fully understand from where their anger and annoyance stem. I'm so grateful to have a day with the sun shining that even days with problems seem to be less of a problem.

Thoughts about this disconnect where you expect everyone to be excited and hopeful, but many are still as frazzled and angry as under much worse conditions?
