To make you proud (expectations)

........I should.......... As they would.......


....they look at me........

....What do they see....?...


What do I see ?.. Do I see me ? The expectations I picture and feel, they are
one at a time tripping over me. 

Like heavy whispers, suggestions, demands..

But nothing expected, just pre-made plans.

What if all I want for a moment is to stand and breathe,
mention an idea
and the next morning it changed suddenly, 

Would you still understand and look proudly at me, Im finding myself, that is my dream.


Through all my life I thought- what do you see, will you be proud of me?
But these bricks are now changing you see.

Its time that I took pride in simply being me,
its the part that so many of us forget, 
all so suddenly.

Cake

Yes my mind does change, and so does my mood. 
There are times Im upset, restless, cant decide between gym or ´cake for one´ for food.
sometimes that is my mood. 
Damn social media what did you do.
So many non- expected expectations I should follow too.
But no, because that is not the truth.
I will not build my life based on these cues. 
I have ideas, but too much hazzle to make it on to paper. 
I promise I`ll make more time, but that will have to be later. 
But life is a roller coaster at a boring speed, sometimes a nightly piece of cake is all you need. 
I will not let others eyes decide on where I need to be. 
Right now its raining, Im baking, and having a cup of tea. 



- To life-

Go - Do it for You (about the fear of solo-travel, not about crossing the Serengeti)

Solo-travel and exploring on your own often seems to be something that's considered too big of  an hurdle, an  uncomfortable area we`d rather avoid. As wolves we are more comfortable in a pack. I used to think like this myself. The thing is however, that we often (as singles in a busy world) find ourselves alone when we would have the time for an adventure. Schedules don't fit.  - Then there's of-course the differences in interests as well, and as being without a partner no one is  "obligated" (please take with sarcasm :D) to go with you on your holiday to extraordinary locations and events.  But hey, that said; - what a perfect time for you to do exactly what you always dreamed of ! All I want to say is go for it.   Don't sit around waiting for "maybe another time" due to the fear, and I'm not talking about the fear of being scared that something might happen on the way (that doesn't seem to be the first thing that pops into

Grandpas legacy

My grandpa passed away some years ago. For a long time during my teenage years and some into adulthood I felt light-years away from him, in our morals and teachings to follow. I was only looking at him like a priest, with his bible, a hungry need for being in the spotlight (he was a well liked radio host, preacher, author, playwright, ceremony holder, documentary film maker, pilgrim arranger, met the pope once- you name it). When I was feeling down at the age of 17 he wrote me a letter about watching more of TV7 (a local conservative evangelical christian channel), he told me it made his days brighter and that I should try it too. PS. He was not conservative, I think. We never talked much- not really. He had 3 grandchildren.  I do not think that he ever really knew me, and neither did I take my time to view him as a person behind the priesthood which he so often talked about . But when I look back on him now- as I found myself and stand supported, I can see past the job he had chosen (

To all my busy friends, show up in my life too- it matters

I would run cartwheels right where I stood if you showed up at my doorstep, if you suddenly sat in the audience during my Indian dance or Improv theater performance.  I would remember it forever if you showed up at the airport to say goodbye for now or welcome back,  I would love for you to ask me where in the world I am at.  I would love for you to reach out to me and ask us to read the same book simultaneously and then meet over coffee to share our thoughts, It doesn't take much time out of your schedule or much effort of sorts, just a suggestion, a thought.  I would love to go out for a joint run or jog- maybe for once right here in my hood- you could use my studio apartments little one person shower,  My home, my little wonderful life- You know you are welcome here too.  Meet me in my life, see where I live and what I do, it might not be marriage and children, or a big suburban house with a yard, but it is me, your friend- still hanging on at the other end.  Someone who shows u
