Ten Things To Like About March
Because it doesn't get enough credit...
1. The Return of Light
The days are noticeably longer. You leave work and it’s still light outside, which feels like a small victory after winter.
2. The First Real Hint of Spring
Not full spring yet — but you start noticing it. A warm afternoon. A patch of green grass. A bird that seems unusually optimistic.
3. The Smell of Thawing Earth
Snow melts, the ground softens, and the air smells different — damp, earthy, alive again.
4. Daylight Saving Time
Losing an hour of sleep hurts… but gaining evening daylight is worth it.
5. College Basketball Madness
For a few weeks, most people believe they are bracket experts.
6. The Return of Outdoor Walks
The sidewalks start filling up again. People reappear like they’ve been stored indoors all winter.
7. Baseball Hope
Spring training begins. Every fan base briefly believes this could be their year.
8. Windows Opening Again
The first day you open the windows and let fresh air into the house feels like a reset button.
9. Winter Losing Its Grip
Snowstorms can still happen, but they feel like the last gasp rather than the beginning.
10. The Sense That Things Are Starting Again
March always feels like a transition month — not quite winter, not quite spring, but the doorway between them.
