愛丁堡的天氣 - 憂鬱症

The weather was plenty fickle last summer I was there. I had worn shorts, cardigans, and a large heavy looking hoodie all in the same day.

Was positively freezing one afternoon when sudden black clouds came onto the scene and I literally fled into the nearest tourist shop.

The old shopkeeper looked up and smiled. "Terrible weather eh?" As I murmured assent in reply, she said briskly, " Well as we say in Edinburgh, if you don't like the weather, wait a minute!"

And indeed after five minutes the city was its sunny self again.

I've come to realize that I could never be " cured" from this so called disease, it's an element in me that will come to stay. One minute I thought I am my jolly self again, next minute my eyes would turn hollow as if my soul is sucked out by the dementors.

Like the ever-changing weather Edinburgh, I have no control over my inner rain or shine.

只能在晴天時趕緊晾晾衣服，如果不幸一直是陰天，那麼衣服有霉味也不是我能控制的事。

雖然是這樣活著，還是希望kamisama能聽到我的祈禱。
