Skipping down my path


Up and down and and around i go, sometimes i've fallen but so far got back up to have another try...

Dropped my hat and now got muddy pants, that's alright our sun will help me dry...

There's a big warm rock, why not climb up and have a rest, eat an apple and view clouds pass by...

Woke up hours later, guess i was tired, the rock is still warm but now our is sun going down...

So up and away i go again along the path my heart wants most, getting dark and cold and i'm alone...

No need to to fear, no need to cry, i'm not lonely or scared for long, where i'll sleep tonight will be shown...

Double Rainbow day





After having been spoiled by sunshine for almost two weeks, yesterday i was finally time for some rain. The rain started pouring down lasting from late night until afternoon that following day, it kept raining that whole day although less and less as the day went by. 

This was when i decided too use this opportunity and go for a walk into the nearby forrest, so on with my rubber boots and out i went. The air was still warm, having both dark and light coloured clouds sharing a blueish sky, the feeling of getting outside was super refreshing.

As i then got into the forrest i noticed lots of water on paths heading down towards the lake, really took my time yesterday just wandering about doing what may seem as nothing but yet absolutely all that i needed at that very moment. Eventuelly i left the trails of the forrest and found myself back into what we so nicely call civilisation, as i kept walk and was about make the turn into the street where i live, there it was...

A beautyful rainbow was appearing just on right side of me, i kept still just taking in it´s pure beauty...That´s when it happened... A second rainbow started appearing, i remained exactly where i was too watch this amazing show put on by mother nature. This was the very first time for me seeing a double rainbow and i could not feel other than blessed and joyful, it also left me with the feeling it will all be alright as long as i keep going with my heart <3

Happiness is a choice ?


This is the first time for me having a question headlining a blog post, whether it is a good choice or not remains to be seen. As you probably already understood this post is about happiness, we hear about it all the time, happy happy happy and we won´t rest until we found it. I am not trying to make fun or criticize anyone searching for happiness, i simply want to say a few words about what happiness is to me which hopefully will inspire others into finding theirs.

I have found a way in life which makes me happy, it has not been easy but i have worked hard to get where i am today, taking thousands of small steps heading towards this moment today. Saying this might sound like i am confident, proud and that i love myself, and yes i honestly do.

Somewhere along my way in life i realised i was good enough, accepted myself, found peace within and started loving myself, what´s wrong with that ? I say there is absolutely nothing wrong with loving yourselves for who you are, 

We are all different and by getting to know ourselves by doing what we feel like at the moment, step by step we will gain confidence and as we feel succsessful by being our true selves, later a trust will build up inside of us. This newfound trust within ourselves helps us too relax and stop worrying so much, we might also start feeling at peace and joyful without really having done anything special.

Happiness comes from within and we all have the power to find our own joy in life, unfortunately sometimes we are being held back or stopped by others, then break free from old habits. Allowing ourselves to wander of feeling a little lost can sometimes be exactly what we need, later once free we might start to see clearly.

Allowing myself to do what i wanted shaped me into who i am today, happiness for me was most definitely a choice, and so far i don't regret my choice. Now my only plan is to keep following my flow while trusting my ability to handle whatever comes in my way, stay great everyone :D

Helping others is helping yourself


Hello dear wellbeings, this late night/early morning i´ve decided to share my thoughts about something simple yet very important, it´s about helping others and also how we grow as living beings by doing so. 
Within ourselves we know how to be kind and helpful and most us truly wants to, and we do know how to do it. If it wasn´t only for the so called busy lives we have created for ourselves, what i am about to say next is also something we all know but i love life so much i´ll happily say it again.

Helping others is helping ourselves and belive me it is true, so YES it is okey to be kind and helpful to other living beings, i am not the first one to say this but i simply want us all to be friends living in harmony with mother earth.

Making time for ourselves to become the the ones we always wanted to be, this could mean choosing to have a smaller home, bankloan, finding a job you love, more friends, less anxiety, healthier lifestyle and the list of wellbeing goes on and on.

You are never alone, we are all here together for a reason, so why not help each other out with all our daily things, we all know what we want so lets just make the best of what we got, together we are the change.

A vegetarian life for me




Hello wellbeings i hope you all are feeling wonderful, about two weeks ago i finally took the step into going vegetarian, so far i only feel sharper, lighter and in general simply relieved by not having to bother about preparing, cooking or eating meat.

As i look back this whole process actually started years ago, it was first while travelling, backpacking and working my way around the world that my eating habits changed. The past few years i have stayed in a small town in Sweden working and living and enjoyed doing so, but the backpacker in me never really left.

However this past year the backpacker in me has started complaining about over-eating in general and which also step by step made meat taste less and less for me. As i usually like to eat fruit, vegetables, different seeds and more i wasn´t really worried about starving or not getting enough nutrition.

I spent some time searching for information and found nothing but benefits about being a vegetarian,. One day i simply told myself to start by trying not having meat for a week and then see what i felt like, so i did. As i said in the beginning of this post it has now been a bit more than two weeks since i decided going for this, for myself and also for my love to all living beings out there, we are all great :D

As i am always looking for ways of improving myself, i welcome your advice/comment and perhaps help me on my blogging adventure also now as vegetarian.

Step by Step


I enjoy doing many different things in life and that´s the way it has always been for me, sometimes i realise that this have sometimes made it a bit more difficult for me as i haven´t perhaps had likeminded people around for advice or guidance.


Today as i´ve experienced more and also by taking chances i´ve created a life that i truly enjoy, i can look back and say to myself, im glad i dared to go my own way. I have seen so many beautyful places and met just as many wonderful people, every place and living being has thought me something whether i´ve realised it yet or not. 

For me inspiration may come from everywhere at any time, there is no trick or secret to it as everyone can learn how to see more clearly and find what truly matters to them. It is simply about being aware of your own needs in life, and then making sure to place yourself where you feel like every step you take is bringing you a bit closer to where you want to be at this moment.

~ So always be yourself,  get out there to do what you feel like and hope for the best ~

A book and a tent



I

While backpacking in New Zealand i was also working as i moved along, for a few weeks i was staying in my tent at a campsite. there i borrowed this book from a german friend, i remember at that time me only having a candle as heat and light source in my tent, but it was all still so great.

This book has a nice story and can be appreciated just as an easygoing read for the whole family, but adding to this it also has another more spiritual and meaningful layer flowing throughout the whole book which is great if you ask me.

Stepping into the unknown


I want to start this post of by saying yes i am new to the world of blogging and i am totally OK with that. I want to blog mainly for the joy of writing and sharing with others, as a new blogger my plan is simply to keep blogging and keep looking for ways of improving.

Recently i´ve read many good articles about how to succseed as a blogger, so what does that really mean i thought, and i found out that there are many reasons combinded that makes a blog great. Yes i admit i need and want all the support and followers i can get at this moment, but at the same time i truly want to succsed simply by being myself doing what i enjoy.

Of all the things in the articles i´ve read one sentence stuck into my mind which was - On the other hand, if you happen to come up with a blog name that you really like,  it could truly prove worth sticking to it. Like now in my case, i really like and can relate to the name of this blog, but according to what i´ve read so far, this name is not optimal in any way according to statistics over popular keywords, names, trends etc etc.

So my brain tells me should change the name just because statistics says so but my heart says don´t worry to much, just go for it. Me as a person will change over time and naturally this blog will change along with me. At least for now i know exactly where i am at when it comes to blogging, so at this moment i will just keep doing what i love in life and when it feels right for me i will blog about it, simple as that.

A gift from a friend
















This book was given to me by a friend that i met while travelling/living in Australia, i later passed it on to a friend of mine, it´s all about the little things in life.

The book itself is perfect if you ask me, funny, inspiring, sad and yet full of knowledge :j

The Art of Being Well



When it comes our health we often tend to be very specific in our ways of going about, maybe we like going to the gym, run, yoga, fitness, do sports and more, staying fit for our own good health is a great start.

However i feel we are often being so specific that we cannot see the whole picture of what a state of wellbeing truly is, psychical exercise or dieting alone does not bring happiness, we need balance everywhere in our daily lives.

Hopefully more of us may discover our own and true greatness, and then are able to find their personal state of well~being.

Creativity matters





I enjoy doing many different things in life, but it is only theese past few years that i have come to realise that art can be found anywhere at anytime or place. 


Before this i was only drawing alot until i got sick of it for a while but started again recently, however this made me start playing guitar and later also harmonica.


 I belive staying creative is a very important part of our wellbeing, but as with health we can loose it if don´t use it wisely. 

So whatever kind of art you are into just keep doing it as long you feel like it and then simply do something else, keep your creativity flowing ~

Knowledge is everywhere









While living in Hong Kong i often visited the library, one day this book was starring at me asking me to read it, so i did and i am grateful for it as i enjoyed the story and learned alot. 

Telling a story of life with all it up and downs it is written i a way that inspired me to also see how everything in our world is connected, it is a childens novel but should serve as inspiration for all ages.

We are all one

By simplifying ourselves and our needs we might actually have time to do what really love today instead of after retirement, so why are so many of us still not satisfied ? 

It is quite simple in most cases anyway, all we need to do is to love ourselves and treat others the way you would like to be treated, sounds childish ? 

That is probably GOOD cause life has never been about just growing old unless we make it so, there is no need for competition as we all hold the same value as living beings, we are one :D
