Many of you may absolutely hate winter and are more upbeat during fall, spring, and summer. However, winter is the perfect time to stay cozy and wrap yourself with plenty of books underneath the fireplace. It’s also a great time to cuddle with your loved ones while your love hormone (oxytocin) also tends to rise.
Here are six reasons why winter is actually the best!
1. You can shop to your heart’s content.
Winter is the best time of the year to indulge in your shopping fantasy and satisfy your desires. For instance, Black Friday is the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the sales and get things at much lower prices. Also, the holiday season is when you will need to get the most shopping done since it’s the ideal time to buy gifts for your loved ones!
2. Experience the freshly crisp white snow.
Winter is the only time of the year when you can experience the pristine beauty of white snow. In fact, snowfall is less prevalent in many countries like Italy and Australia. Visitors from these countries are keen on traveling around the world in the quest to experience the ethereal richness of snowfall. Building a snowman used to be one of my favorite things to do with friends when I was younger. And chances are I will do it again when the next snow falls outside my window.
3. It’s the perfect time for ice skating and other winter sports.
Ice skating is an incredible activity that gets you right in the groove of new exciting prospects in life! When you’re ice skating, you instantly get transported into a whole new world where it’s just you skating through both the highs and lows of life. However, ice skating becomes more exhilarating when skating with your romantic partner. Research has shown that ice skating is a sexy and romantic activity that can increase a couple’s attraction and affection. Skiing and playing ice hockey are other sports usually played during the winter.
4. Invest in fashion.
You can channel your inner fashionista even more during the winter months and make style statements. For example, you can don cashmere scarves, cardigans, leather jackets, cute beanies, and elegant boots. That way, you will remain effortlessly chic and comfy and also instantaneously increase your glamour quotient. You will become the center of attention at your workplace or cocktail parties in no time.
5. Netflix and Chill.
You can watch Netflix or any other streaming service right from the comfort of your home these days. Especially during the winter months when it is too cold to hang outside, you can grab some popcorn and homemade hot chocolate while relishing the riveting movies you choose to watch. There is absolutely nothing cozier than curling up in your PJs right in front of your TV screen!
6. Enjoy the festive season by going to parties.
Parties are always trending during the festive holiday season. Whether it’s Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year’s Eve, there are many reasons to take a break and dance till midnight. On top of that, you also have Valentine’s Day in February to look forward to, which is another great occasion.
Winter is not simply a season. It’s actually the time most people look forward to. It’s when people come together in unison to celebrate life and the future. It brings many separated souls together after a long time, and the family reunion is what makes it the most wonderful time of the year!
