Prose 29 : Temperament And Temperature

 Temperament And Temperature
                                                 - T ABRAHAM

    The seasonal changes are something that is inevitable by one and we live with it. The two extremes are the summer and winter which brings in happiness and disappointment at the same time. The end of winter is summer and after this we reach the season of spring which tends towards autumn and finally back to the winter. The seasonal changes also influences our mood and one gets irritated when we reach the extreme ends. The seasonal changes also lets one relate with the attainable happiness which survives for sometime and then we move into the seasons of sadness then back to happiness filling the air. So, here we are going to ponder upon how this summer heat makes one feel when it is reaching it's highest point during this month of April 2024.

    The summer is identified with the hotness it provides one with. The hotness is something that can be a symbol for anger, danger and fire. The bright sunshine with it's light at a certain point of time becomes an annoyance for the people when the warmth turns into hotness. The hotness is not just being hot but becoming hotter and then reaching the hottest point where one starts to get irritated. The 'hotness of the sun' or of the 'summer heat' is something that feels pleasant when we come out from the coldness of winter in the beginning but soon causes anger and irritation to one when it is increasing it's intensity. The sun at first enters as an innocent being trying to comfort the coldness and dampness we were surrounded by but soon takes it's control over the situation and starts it's toll over all the people.

    The summer heat causes one to sweat even though one has not done any physical work. This heat is a factor that also tests one's patience by becoming a factor of irritation as well. The sweat irritates a person who is either caught up with cold, cough and sneezing as the sweat has a cooling effect over one's body when one's body reaches really a very high temperature. The temperature of our body is being maintained because of this fluid called as sweat which also adds on to our sneezes which makes one to loose energy, not even leaving the energy factor of one's body to let one do a work that does not use the physical body but also the one that only uses the mind.

    When the heat is high and one is also angry and is also a short-tempered person, the energy gets totally drained out and one feels very sleepy and the sleepiness and fatigue surrounds them. During the test of our patience by the nature if we remain intact and just hold on to our 'anger suppressant factor' we are away from 'draining our energy by our temperament'. Hence, even the nature too takes it's turn in testing our patience to see how one reacts to these external environmental stimuli and how we pass through this test to make the patience an ever-lasting quality inside us.
