Although I don't like it quite as much as I used to (I am 56 now) I have always thought that summer was overrated and winter underrated. The three things I probably hate the most are heat (well, humid heat anyway), crowds and excessive noise and in summer it can be hard to escape from these things. I love the mystery and silence of winter, its dignity and the way it seems to challenge you. In summer all you seem to get is anti-social morons shouting and screaming and getting drunk and throwing up etc. It sucks. Obviously I do enjoy sunshine but you do get sunshine in winter as well (not just in summer) and that's what I like the most (winter sunshine).

I do.

I live in the south (U.S.), so it's pretty warm most

of the year-- Winter is a relief.

And though it does dip below freezing a few times,

it's rare... I don't think we've had snow since

like... 1989.

For me ... it's not that I love winter, rather, I hate summer.

One thing I do love is in the dead cold of winter, just when you think the earth must be dead, and despair starts to set in .... you find little green tips poking out of the ground and you know that soon a beautiful crocus will be emerging, reminding you that Earth had merely been rejuvenating herself.

Winter is like a deep sleep ..... justs makes me want to cuddle up with Her, waiting to be awoken with a new vigor

Favorite season! The crisp air, the smell in the air, depending on place you live. I would sit in fields of snow for days if I wouldn't freeze to death! Just the purity & beauty of nature in all it's glory is awe inspiring. Fall is right behind it, love the colors, so vibrant.
