I’m an outdoorsman kind of person, so I don’t like the buzz of the crowd, crowd, crowd and all that so much. I mean I don’t mind it, but I don’t seek it out.

Familj – de man känner mest samhörighet med, de som står en närmst. Oftast är det den egna familjen, bestående av kanske föräldrar och barn. Mitt bidrag blir min älskade Totti och hans ”tjej” och deras gemensamma valpar. Det var mycket spännande att se hur han skulle reagera när han mötte dem. Först mycket tveksamt – snarast lite rädd för de små…men det tog sig efter hand. Han nosade gärna med staket emellan…för de var ju lite oberäkneliga de där små. Kanske de ändå på något sätt visste att de hörde samman, för Totti var mycket snäll och de små oförväget nyfikna.
Jag behöver väl knappast förklara att Totti och Mille tillhör familjen?
Family – those who you feel closest to. Mostly your own family, parents and children. My entry is my beloved dog, Totti, his ”girlfriend” and his first puppies. It was exciting to see how well they got along, at first the little ones felt a bit scary to him, but later he was more confidently curious. The puppies adored him and were very curious from the start. Maybe they know somewhere that they are kin – I would like to think so.
I suppose I don’t have to explain that Totti and Mille belong to our family too?

Fönster har alltid varit viktiga för oss – inte minst i länder där ljuset behöver komma in under de mörka vintermånaderna. När jag var barn hade man dubbla fönster med bomull/ull emellan och ibland eterneller därpå.
Inga fönster är mig kärare än de enkla fönster vi har i sommarstugan. De är mycket gamla, med flagnande färg och gistet trä som gör dem svåra att öppna och stänga. Men de är – Sommar. Det andra fotot visar S’t Mary’s Church i Scarborough, som har sällsynt vackra fönsterbågar.
Windows have always been important to us, and I think maybe especially in countries where they are much needed for the light during the dark winter months. When I was a child many windows were double and had a string of cotton or wool in between the two window glasses. Sometimes people decorated with flowers or herbs there as well.
To me, no windows are more beautiful than the simple old windows of our summer house. Their colouring is fading and their wooden frames so worn that they are no longer easy to open and close…but they are – Summer. The second photo shows St Mary’s church in Scarborough – where I simply fell in love with both the windows and their frames.
Today I got this celebration badge sent to me because it is exactly 3 years since I registered on WordPress.com. I didn’t know it was today, but I knew it was about 3 years…
Three interesting, adventurous, exciting years that have brought me new, valuable knowledge and many friends all over the world! (There are things good with the Internet…) So much I have learned from you, so much fun and so many useful things! Hopefully we will have many more discussions, reflections, likes (and dislikes…) to share. And, bits and pieces of our lives will fit together in this great Big Puzzle. Intriguing!
To celebrate this – my way – I have created another blog, because…well, I will put the link under my photo blog faialflores,( created last year, right column) but for now…you can find my New blog Here. What it’s about? Be my guest, click and find out!
Music is an important part of our lives – and Music is also Ese’s challenge this week. Young people today have music plugged in their ears all day it seems…which would be a bit too much for me… I love silence.
I do love silence, but I also love almost all kinds of music, from bird song to heavy metal. I have a sweet tooth for music coming up spontaneously among people, for big voices like Freddie Mercury’s and tenors as Andrea Bocelli’s, for clear and soaring ones like Mireille Mathieu’s and Sara Brightman’s – and also for odd instruments.
Music is everybody’s possession. It’s only publishers who think that people own it.

Last year we saw the beginning of a new building further down our street. A rather dilapidated old house was torn down and a magnificent old garden with a giant apple tree had to go. I still miss that apple tree…There used to lie tons of apples under it in Autumn – for anyone to pick and use.
This company sets up a new house in a couple of days only – now there are people living in all of its apartments. Lights in every window this grey winter.

Den här dagen är nog en av de mera lyckliga och sköna i livet. Du har gått din sista dag i skolan – nu är du helt fri och framtiden är ett oskrivet blad. Du bestämmer själv vart du vill gå och om du vill jobba eller plugga eller kanske resa och se världen. Även om framtiden är osäker så är känslan den här dagen obetalbar – du är fri! Jag minns fortfarande när jag själv sprang ut på gården viftande med den vita mössan – världen låg öppen!
This day – I think belongs to the happiest free-and easy-days in your life. The last day in school, the world is an open book with unwritten pages and you are free to do whatever you want. You feel grown up and from now on you make your own decisions about what steps to take from here. I can still remember my day…there is no comparison to that feeling. Even if the future seems uncertain, this day is totally – your own!
The self is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of action.
