As I was returning from a shopping trip I listened to some music. A song came up that I was not familiar with but the theme was well know, the unclouded sky. The clear sky scenario went on and on. They were really excited about not having any clouds in the sky.
I had a different view of the matter. It was central Texas and the temperature was at least in the mid 90s. It was hot. One of the reasons it was hot was the clear skies. If every day of the year was like this it would not take long to turn the countryside into a dust bowl. Sunshine is wonderful, in reasonable amounts. Clouds and rain are necessary for life. Face it, there are times when you like to listen to the rain on the roof.
Sunshine, like most of life is a matter of balance. Too much of any good thing becomes an ungood thing. Be grateful for what I call Missouri weather because that is the first place I heard the statement about waiting a few minutes and it would change.
Variety is not just the spice of life. It is a requirement.
