Backside of Winter
Hello dear readers 👇
Today is my next article on a free theme. This is a reflection on life, different situations and the like.
In comments to my articles you can ask questions, as well as give your opinion on the subject of this article.
Today I want to talk about winter, namely its pros and cons.
But before I begin, I will digress a little, thanking readers for the comments on my last article titled "Snow".
https://read.cash/@Belozoriana/snow-7604f2f6 had so many comments. Thanks!!!!
To the question where I live, I answer:
Ukraine is one of the Slavic states located in Eastern Europe. Ukraine is washed by two seas - the Azov Sea and the Black Sea. The capital of Ukraine is the city of Kiev with a population of almost 45 million people.
And yes, it's a snowy and cold country, the heat we have only three months, and that's summer. And since the climate changes until mid-June we are still heating the house! Last year in winter our thermometer was the lowest point of cold -35 ° C. But it is not every day! Mostly from -12 ° to -25 ° Celsius degrees of frost.
In this picture👆 the red color indicates the territory of Ukraine - my country.
On this map you can see how far we are from each other. I will write today's news for : That in Kiev (our capital) and the surrounding areas this winter will be very cold, evidenced by the fact of the beginning of mass disconnection of hot water!
The Cabinet has imposed limits on gas consumption for autumn and winter!
So by mid-winter the rest of the territory of Ukraine will have no gas, no coal, and no money to buy them.
And we will have to jump. And non-stop😅.
Sometimes I envy the southern countries because they have heat. We spend a lot of money on heating our homes. Gas is very expensive, and wood is not cheaper. In general, winter has a downside and not very good. For example, my mother spends only for gas heating about 3-4 thousand hryvnia ($ 150) is only for gas! In order that the temperature in the house was +20 ° (she has two-room apartment).
The minimum wage in Ukraine - 6000 hryvnia ($220), so the rest is left at $50, and you also need to pay for water and light and live on something. Yes, really on what? We have to save gas-but then it's cold in the house, we wear warm clothes. Here's winter, it's beautiful but very cold!!!!
In southern countries there are earthquakes, typhoons, hurricanes-we have winter! The roads are very slippery, resulting in a number of accidents, emergency rooms are full of people with fractures (especially elderly people), the cold, very expensive heating. So I told you about the other side of winter. So sometimes it is better to look at pictures or photos.
Winter and the cold affect our skin color. The colder it is, the whiter the skin. The warmer, the darker the skin. Yeah, guys, it's our adaptation to the cold and the sun. But my attitude to people doesn't change from this!!!! For me the main thing is not the appearance and not the clothes, or even the material wealth. The main thing is what kind of person he is!!!!
I have white skin and I get sunburned in the summer, my body just boils under the sun's rays and gets covered in watery sores. Here without sunscreen, well, just can not do!
I once went to vacation on our Crimean peninsula (southern side of Ukraine, which is the sun, beach and Black Sea). It would seem I was in paradise, but it was not there! I did not last even a week.
First of all it was the change of climate, it was hard to breathe, I just choked on the high humidity. My body was covered with boils... I was in the hospital with oxygen for three days! And I'm back to my cold side.
The conclusion from this is (folk wisdom): "It's good where we're not" !!!!
I congratulate everyone on the winter holidays, who reads me, who is somehow interested in me. I wish everyone strength and luck, my own piece of luck in our lives, which you all certainly deserve! Good luck to you! Don't get sick! Take care of yourself and your loved ones from the cold and various misfortunes 🌨
My sponsor friends, thank you!
As strong as we are, support increases our strength! It's like a breath of fresh air when difficulties pile up and don't let us breathe! Thank you for your support! I will always remember and thank you!

I must admit I like warm weather. Today in Scotland it was 0 and the pond was frozen, that is too cold for me. As beautiful as Ukraine is, it is far too cold for me. Energy costs here are really expensive so I can sympathise with your mother.
