quarter two post eight

today i read an article on cnn.com it was about the sun and depression. according to the article some people have seasonal depression, or depression that changes depending on the season (mainly winter). there is a specific gene for this type of depression. there is a way to combat this type of depression, it is light therapy. light therapy involves the person undergoing exposure to light that are closely related to the sun. the "disease' is officially know as seasonal affective disorder (SAD). i think that it is intersesting that people can be affected by not getting enough sun, when people are talking about getting too much sun and how it can cause skin cancer. i also think that is cool that the sun has such a big affect on our lives, in more ways that one, we need the sun to survive, so i think the sun should get a little more respect.
