we are about to leave 2012 behind us, and to welcome 2013 into our lives. the world is still standing, in it’s special way of standing…I am still here, when I am not there, and vice versa. might seem confusing but it is actually pretty simple, behind all that complexity. ;)

magdalena, you totally touched me with your words. I read them over and over again. thank you dear!

project ‘knitting as a therapy’ has been finished for this time. it became quite expensive but nice and warm.

looking up the word ‘therapy’ on my blog I found a few things that I mention as being therapeutic: (in case someone out there is looking for such activities)

1.bread baking

2.knitting

3.gardening/weeding

4.drinking beers.

5. making photos

which are your top five therapeutic activities?

merry christmas

to all of you out there, funky bunch! I wish for all of us lots of love and presence in life. it starts by loving ourselves, and being present in our own moment. if you know what I mean…

I made a gingerbread house looking slightly similar to my parents house, burned my hands on the boiling sugar and later dropped the whole monster in the snow! but it is still standing, my pride and my glory. looking slightly damaged, but hey, who doesn’t?

göteborg

I am back from a few intense days in gothenburg. I was mainly spending my time in the opera house (slightly smaller than sidney opera house, but still a maze big enough to get lost inside). and the nights laughing and talking with my friend. if nothing or no one would stop us, we could talk for hours. there is so much pleasure in sharing.

I enjoy being a stranger here. gothenburg, I hope to be back again soon.

how are you dear people doing? winter solstice is just a few hours ahead of us…

some days…

...i’d rather just hide behind the curtain of my messy hair until sunset. luckily sunset happens pretty early around here, this time of the year. let me know when you are sick and tired of kitschy, wintery photos, will you?

icicles are similar to flowers, they ask to be photographed. I need to say it a few times a day, that it is so pretty outside that it almost hurts, somewhere in the region of my belly/heart. i guess that i will be extremely sentimental once i am older, one fine day… christmas carols already makes me want to cry.
