You can’t save daylight
I cannot figure out why we still engage in the seemingly pointless exercise of daylight savings time. I can’t recall anyone expressing any benefits to the exercise.
Daylight is like air in a ballon. If you squeeze it out of one part, it goes to the other part. No matter what the clock says, the total time of daylight remains the same. (Believe me, if we could save it, we would happily use stored daylight to take the edge off our northern winters.)
Although skipping an hour might seem harmless, there are downsides. Many people in the already sleep-deprived population will lose an hour of much-needed sleep. Additionally, because other countries change the clocks on different days (or skip it), time differences change for a few weeks or until autumn. As if mind-bending time differences need another layer of complexity.
Who’s ready to start a movement to keep standard time all year long?
Hopefully, my questions cause you to reflect on your own thinking, relationships or choices. Maybe I even inspire you to make positive changes.

Yesterday was supposedly International Lefthanders Day. As a lefty, you would think I might celebrate. Instead, I think it is quite silly that we feel the need to create holidays for everything under the sun. With a holiday for nearly everything, how are...
