Flowers, trees, allergies, love and depression = SPRING!

As we know, the spring is one of the most beautiful stations of the year. The flowers cover with their color all the parks, the trees grow up and sprout new leaves, the weather is nice –There are more sunny days and we take off our jackets- The days are longer and the best (for this side of the hemisphere) is that the arrival of the spring is synonymous of just a few months for the ending of the year!

But, not all is good in this station. The allergies affect many people, they are very annoying. We can’t breathe; we should take some drugs, specially done for the allergies called “Antihistamines”. But this is NOT the “most important” theme of this text.

The love is in the air, like the pollen. A lot of couples like to go out to the park or just go for a walk around the city. But some couples, kissing each other and they don’t show shyness. Sometimes, for the singles, it could be a little uncomfortable. In my case, I see all the time couples kissing each other, and I think “They should look for a bedroom or something more private” Is not too cute seeing a boy and a girl kissing with fury! Especially if they are just teenagers.

The Depression is very common in these months. Why? For a lot of personal problems or they are just afraid of the word “Love” this is my case. I think I’m not the only one with this problem, all the people, at least once, have felt like this. In the adolescence is something common, but when you are an adult, It could be seen as something strange, even a serious psychiatric illness.

In the news, some years ago, the journalists talked about a suicide: A man took to the subway line and died, of course. After the research, the police say that the man had a strong depression and he wanted to kill himself since a lot of time, because he lost his work and fought with his wife. But why in spring and not in other station? The answer is simple: the people get more sentimental just for look the other persons more happy or relaxed, and the reaction of a sad person, may be unexpected. For jealously, most of the time.

But we must remember that the spring is beautiful, we should enjoy the life and not just thinking in bad things, and of course, not finish our lives with hasty decision.
