Briefly

The article features a lighthearted inquiry into unusual weather patterns, suggesting the weather might benefit from therapy. Following this, several letters are addressed where readers express concerns about friendships and personal gifts. In one instance, a sender feels frustrated by a friend’s repetitive issues, while another is puzzled by a husband’s makeup gift after decades of marriage. The advice emphasizes the importance of listening in friendships and encourages the use of a gift in a creative manner, regardless of initial feelings towards it.
