Yes. Maybe this is my therapy site. Writing. But I suppose all sort of blogging/writing is the same thing as therapy. It feels like my life has been stolen and I want my life back. I feel very sorry for that. But I try to make the best out of my life.
Sweden is a very, very good country to live in but I must admit, that I hate Jantelagen. I am a very happy person, but you are not allowed to be happy in Sweden because then everybody get jealous. I don´t understand that because everybody who lives in Sweden has a very good life if you compare to many other countries. I don´t know how that can be changed. Maybe I have to move abroad to get happy some day. Because you are not allowed to be happy in Sweden. I am happy because climate is good. No earthquakes. Everybody has food and water. You can find mountains, lakes and good entertainment. So, why complain?
Yesterday I wrote that I have totally forgotten that it is Halloween this weekend. So, today I bought a few somethings to remember as you can see on the photo above. Time has changed. When I was little everybody went to church and I remember that it was a little scary because of all dead people. The priest read the names of the people that had passed away during the year and lit candles.
Today is different. In a way, I like this happier celebration. Life should´t be to serious. But, maybe some combination because I think one should remember death. In life. Yes. Very complicated. I know. But that is what makes life beautiful. There is no right and there is no wrong.
Spending this weekend working a little. Writing. And exercising. Having a lot of candy means work out. Otherwise no candy. That is life. Weather you like it or not!
Ok. Happy me wishes you a happy halloween with many trick or treats!

Friday evening. I am staying at home tonight, relaxing and watching tv. I don´t know how many people read this, but I will continue to write in English. I trust my gut feeling more than statistics right now.
I have needed time to leave my book for a while. Since I have been out of ideas for a while that has made me think of where I get my ideas from. I know I need to do various things for being stimulated and motivated. So maybe, going to Paris or London would be nice. Or maybe something completely different for finding a new environment for my next book. Since I like my characters so much I will continue to write about them. Stories about life.
I have had some time to reflect these last two weeks. I have thought of my life. And of course I feel sad sometimes, but I have learnt how to deal with it. Life. How to cope with life. Meeting tragedies and how to find strength. The beauty of life. The school of life.
Halloween this weekend. I like pumpkins. However, I have forgotten completely to buy pumpkins and something to put on my door. Ok, all for tonight.
Bon weekend,
Anna
Today I have changed from running to ordinary exercise. Normally I am rather tired in the mornings, but I have tried to change that. Work out early in the morning gives a lot of energy. Since I am not used to this kind of exercise I actually have muscle pain right now. Not much, but a little. My biggest load in life, as usual, is candy. And coffee. But somehow, I feel I need to reward myself with something. I love sport. Cannot live without sport. That is a big reward.
I have had a break from writing. I wrote a lot when I was on vacation. This weekend I will start with a new writing project, I think. I liked my characters a lot. A lot. I will have to find, make up, a new story. I am surprised that I could make up a story out of nothing. Now I feel a bit empty of ideas so I really hope inspiration will find me again. No ideas no book

Wintertime has changed me a lot. I have realized that I have to prepare for colder and darker time. No outdoor running but during weekends, so, I will start indoor work out. Feels like a long time ago, so probably I have a lot of catching up to do.
This morning was very bright and beautiful and I wanted to have a photo of this morning. However, I found no good moment. Instead I found this photo on my way home tonight. The moon is so bright and gives a lot of light. What I wanted to grasp was the shadows dancing in the autumn leaves. Difficult to find moments in life. In daily life.

Actually, I don´t have much to tell about today. It has been a so called ordinary day. I have watched the photos from yesterday. They make me happy and they give me a lot of energy. It was such a nice walk.
Since it is winter time now life has changed to darker evenings. These evenings where you just feel like not doing much but to stay at home, watch tv and have a cup of the. This weekend, I think, was the last running. I will miss running since it is so fresh. I don´t like to run when it is so dark outside.
Ok, all for tonight. Hope you enjoyed the photos!
