That time of the year again

It is that time of the year again.

The time when you cannot decide what gives you less melancholy: a shorter day but still full of southern lights and warmth, or a still long but chillier day.

The time when "still" is the word which populates most of your thoughts. When you do not want to surrender to the slow twilight towards winter or to let go of the summer hopes. And dreams.

Or when sometimes you cannot decide whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the Slings and Arrows of outrageous Fortune, or to take Arms against a Sea of troubles, and by opposing end them.
In reality, of course, hopes and dreams are already gone. And in reality, a good intake of Magnesium and Vitamin C is all you need.
