Summer time?

Aristotle was correct when he said that "One swallow does not a summer make, nor one fine day; similarly one day or brief time of happiness does not make a person entirely happy." But we must be careful not to conclude that the swallow is just an illusion if it is not yet summer. One event does not indicate a trend only if you are anticipating a trend. Summer or not the swallow has appeared and, in the context of life, its arrival has meaning. After all, one has no meaning unless you have two.
Or, does it?
