To sun or not sun..

I was just wondering what is wrong with us humans not getting enough sun, or what's wrong with humans generally. We usually complaining about something, aren't we? Let's analyse the weather moaning. When it's sunny the heat makes us suffering (Greeks, Italians etc) and we stay at home with
air-conditions drying our body and brain. When it's cloudy and raining we don't wanna go out and we feel measurable and we postpone our training at the park or we postpone our picnic because we will get wet and then we will get ill and then we will have to suffer AGAIN...

What about considering the possibility that it's all part of a mind-game, we alone building-up
Day be day since when we were probably born? ..Our mums yelling not to get out when it's raining or not to wash our hair and go out or any hidden memory that our brain unwillingly is retrieving out of the blue???

What about Brazilians dancing and partying any time with any weather conditions, are they getting ill every time they party? Are they staying at home when it's 4 degrees Celsius?

Are we imposing ourselves how we should behave and feel based in our habits, our society's unwritten rules and our childhood memories? May be we can get over it? May be we will feel our serotonin levels going high up if we do go jogging at the park when it is "spitting", may be we should just remember why we got emotional when we've seen Forest Gamp for the first time running for weeks, months?

Re-considering our comfort-zones is my suggestion, re-discovering our need for safety and getting to know our hidden real personality, crossing the line..theat line that we are so used to consider as a normal limit we should never cross.

I believe that we are getting used to our lives and ourselves and our safety created and we do not further want to try and move the water underneath our feet and we become static and solid....and then we moan and start thinking that it's somebody else's fault instead of looking towards our inner psiche..and this is when we start blaming people around us..wrong path...we are probably looking to wrong direction. However, there is nothing wrong about it, it's normal, excepted and triggering if we decide to face-it-up and do something about it. We can change and we can get to discover ourselves every single day and have amazing fun by doing so, we can rely on our-selves and make our-selves happy and also our friends and our partners if we decide to go for it.

Here's a little story in relation to my crossing-the-line-suggestion.
When I was at the UNI I went for a psicological test with some mated in the mountains in Circeo.
The professor Montanarela was leading us in a crossing-the-safety-zones situation. We had to walk with a partner with our eyes blinded in a pathway, climping and walking with our partner's assistance. This was just a self experiment to test our feeling not safe and relying mainly in our partner's guidance to get over physical obstacles, small rivers etc. It did not last long and although it was exciting the following test was even more exciting. We had to cross a river, about 8 mt wide, it was December, around 3 degrees Celsious and we obviously did not have any wellis with us, just our trainers. Prof Montanarella kept on walking and crossing the river, nobody said nothing, we were just looking to each other trying to follow without a lot of rationale thinking...then we heard a man's voice yelling "this is irrationale, it's so cold and you are asking us to cross a river full of water just to do some trekking exercise...?? I have my exam on Monday and if I will get ill I will not be able to pass it and I will fail and it's going to be a disaster.......bla bla bla bla". The prof. just answered "you are not obliged to follow, just turn back and wait for us where we started, or just go with flow...". He went back after he yelled for a bit longer. On Monday, 2 days after our mountain exercise, he was the only ill person  and the only person that has not crossed the river...
