Most people have their likes and their dislikes. Often these are polar opposites, such that one is defined by the other. They enjoy spicy foods, so they hate bland foods, or conversely they like plain foods so they dislike foods that go to the extremes of their gastronomic palettes. They like Yin, so by default, they dislike Yang (after all it is not Yin!).
Michael is not most people; point in case: Michael adores the winter snow and the summer waves. He revels in them both, loving them for what they are. One is not less, because it is the opposite of the other; in his mind they both are wonderful. The day we left Fort Lauderdale was a special day for Michael; he awoke to the warm yellow sunrise illuminating the Atlantic, and fell asleep in a house blanketed by a pure, white, new fallen snow.
