the things I do

_MG_1517_MG_1523_MG_1505_MG_1527

those intense days again~ waking up before sunrise, snoozing, drinking blueberry tea, meditation, oh that meditation, and either rushing to pluck figs or milking/herding goats, then building and creating the village kindergarten in two mongolian yurts, and writing a few long emails,trying out new recipes, making some phone calls, boiling some jam, preparing classes, remembering to take those B12 pills, writing receipts, thinking some, and day dreaming, and catching myself getting carried away and bringing myself back to here and now, to whatever that might be again, folding the dough of some rye bread, dancing, mixing mud in the concrete mixer, having a beer to cool down…and time goes by. and each day ends and a new one starts.

like my teacher said, we got to carry and hold ourselves in love. that inspired me….

the nightgown

and snippets of portraits.

trying to get a bigger, holistic picture of myself and my surrounding by withdrawing deeper down inside.

the hike

from one village to the other, through the valley, passing plantations of apricots and figs.

I recommend all of us to spend more time outside, in nature…

…in sweden.

the difference of being in silence is the speed in which I do things. it ~everything~ tastes, smells, looks, and feels different when you are quiet.

I am not sure you saw this video on the last post: click here to watch something beautiful!

a portrait

of a lady and her home.

nowadays the home is full of clues of a life in adaptation; to ease and to comfort aging. makes me think and feel so many things. watch this beautiful illustration of aging.

I will be spending the coming days in silence, while meditating and fasting. Much love to you.
