I still have time …
contemplating
when rushing world wants peace
new reborn
… watching the world pass by in front of my eyes …
troubled
when war hijacking and terror
progress
… shooting photos, writing diary and poems, drawing and painting pictures …
philosophizing
while creativity makes result
living life
Carpe Diem: #1105 Christmas Oratorio:
Cantata #1 BWV 248 – Mov. 1/9 by J.S. Bach.
I just made a picture. Or the Picture wanted to be made by me. So it is! I use to listen when pictures want to be painted. Sometimes with pens, crayons and pencils I – myself – don’t like very much. I listen and do it anyway.
When Picture was made I gave it a name. That I am allowed to do actually. Picture got the name ”Locker”. And for a while – when studying the Picture – I wondered:
-What is it you want to tell me?
Then I said:
-Why are you so right on the point (almost) always!?
open minded
though the locker is closed – but not
for flowers
I saved and went to my emailbox. Now I find that one of my favorit haiku writers had made a beautiful poem about locked. My picture is named ”Locker”.
I think …
-the open window with the flattering curtain – to the right – is the ”open minded”
-the locker keeps ”something very important” safe
-”but not – for flowers” is so enormous interesting so I have to go on thinking about this
What could it mean?
These days in our world it is like – …
… while the days role on and – somewhere there you are – with your enthusiasm for life – you enjoy – you experience – ….
… then suddenly – like a flash from the sky – actually the reality – somewhere – you are hit – very hard – and paralyzing – by a kind of lid – for a while – …
… then you rise and – go on with your life – finding the way back to your enthusiasm – your joy for life – experiencing – …
… with a new needle – like a knit gnawing – somewhere reminding – or telling you – something …
… you don’t want to listen to!
So I don’t!
a solitary leaf
and the blue river of life
flooding
I go on – in my life – I take the hits from all the lids – and I go on with my life.
Daily Prompt: Enthusiasm.
… thinking about these horrible ‘t’ attacks …
What’s directing in different situations?
That’s an important question to reflect about. I think people are far too much focused on tw0 and not the third.
The pedophile – by needs and body pleasure – reptile brain.
The terrorist – by emotions –
The atheist – by reason –
Why do more and more people get immensely fat? – And the TV love to make programs about it! Why?
Why do people turn to extreme collectors and why do people buy all kinds of things they don’t really need? – And TV love to make programs about it! Why?
Why isn’t reason ruling our lives? Is it to blame somebody else?
Well I cannot change the world – I can try … but ….!
My life is in my hands – or correctly – my way of living my life is in my hands. So if I value myself I just have to take care of myself. I ought to find out what is important in life. Not just to me! Not just for me! What’s most important in life! One must find out for oneself. And at the same time – hopefully – be a resource for others.
How should I live my life so I can be proud of myself, stay healthy and enjoy every day as much as possible.
I think I am rather good att living my life. I don’t need a lot of things and clothes but I need my Canon, Mac, iPad and iPhone 😉
I have been a hard working woman all my life and now I enjoy after_work 😉
Since I love to watch phenomena in everyday life, people and their behavior …. and since I love all kinds of performing arts, music and culture …. Budapest is the right place for me. In Sweden I could neither have the possibility nor afford because of distance and costs. My program 2016 and now started up 2017.
And I can choose when I want to be in the crowd and when I want to be in my own space.
Now before Christmas there are more than 1 million turists in Budapest. Safe and sound – so far!

Now I want want want …
want
that little spectacular
technical object
place it on my smartphone
shooting poetry to pictures
… and I don’t want to wait!
Read about it this morning. I had something similar once – an Olloclip – it was so smart! At that time the iPhones were thicker than nowadays.
So off to Media Markt at once!
Please cross your fingers!
… continues ….
No crazy thoughts popping up today on my walkabout over and between the bridges. I was too busy with testing camera settings in this half misty day. Soon I will look at my photos but first that only poem coming in my head when I was almost at home. I think it is a little folly …. or?
I’m the kind of
faithful
You weren’tI’m the kind that wants
closeness
You weren’tI’m the kind that
not betray
You weren’t

Tänk om vi kunde ha pratbubblor – som i serietidningarna – i verkligheten? tänkte jag. Sedan funderade jag på vad det skulle kunna vara bra för. Det vore ju som en ständig demonstration med plakat fast pratbubblor. Hur skulle det se ut i kommunen!
Men förstås om man hade avsökningar – typ sådana de måste ha på Facebook och Twitter m.fl. – så skulle man snabbt hitta pratbubblor som kom från bråkstakar. Lät man sedan pratbubblorna ta över kontrollen – över sina respektive bråkstakar – och placerade dem i speciella bås – för att sedan av-bråkstaka dem – hade det ju varit toppen. Kommunen var idel öra.
Varje bråkstake som lät sig av-bråkstakas skulle kunna få en bonus, motionerade man i kommunens fullmäktige. Motionen bi-fölls förstås inte då de flesta politikerna hade gått iväg för att se Braveheart som visades just den kvällen.
Skrivpuff: Välj 5 ord på B och skriv om minst 2 av dem.
Bubbla, brave, bråkstake, bi-,bonus.
Ps. Jag väljer alltid de orden som först poppar upp. Ibland blir det tokigt – som tur är. Gillar denna utmaning 🙂

Spotify has been very nice to me. I usually don’t like when things are made for me on Internet. I want to do myself! Presented music I listened to most during the 2016 in a special list. Now I was in a good mood and the bath tube was filled with hottest water so … I might as well listen when having my refreshing bath.
Turned on …. soft quiet tones …. ah Bolero … Perfect … I started to sneak into the very very very hot water. My nipples turned inwards in fright but I told them it was safe. Perfect music this Bolero I thought while feeling like a mermaid billowing my body like she would do. Following the music. Heavenly this and good for my back – the muscles. The only thing that differ me from a mermaid now is that I can spread out my legs.
I am moving to the music and enjoying heaven. In time exactly to the grand mighty final – the last seconds of Bolero – I drop my head into the water. Splash!
Now ready for next song and shampoo.

Bolero is a favorit of all times! Combined with dance – ballet or contemporary – oh I can watch interminably. This year I have several times. I admire dancers ability to control their bodies – wow – performed art at highest level. They handle their bodies like a director his/her orchestra.
Maya Plisetskaija is also a favorit – she is a terrific ballet dancer – here choreographed in contemporary by another favorit Maurice Béjart.
Now listen and take your bath! Follow the music … enjoy!
I could go on writing about next …. but … maybe later … I got up to Zorba’s dance.
Well well well … this is really something to be a bit sharper on … I think … Hopefully I can think in ”My Threes” in this one too. Mostly I think in three – the holy number (to me). Not at all religious!!!!!
1st – The largest question – conundrum – is to find that very very simple answer to how the very very complex Universe happens. Why choose ‘happens’? Because I reject the more specific and find a simple word best here.
And I’m sure the answer is simple because the subject is so complex.
2nd – The funny question – conundrum – is for example joking about dear neighbors. Swedish people do that a lot about Norwegian people. I think Finnish people do that about Swedish people. Ha ha!
3rd – The wise words – conundrum – Words that make you reflect about yourself, other people and our behaviour in the world. We all have our favorites don’t we!? I too and here are a few.
”In its basic sense, trust is essential to every conversation. In conversation as such we deliver ourselves over into the hands of another we are ‘in the power of’ the other’s words and conduct.” Knud Løgstrup (Dk)
”Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.” Lucius Annaeus Seneca
”To write is to regain your balance” – Patrick Modiano, Nobel Prize in Literature 2014.
”Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people” –
Eleanor Roosevelt“Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”
― Viktor E. Frankl –

I’m sorry! I lied yesterday. I totally forgot about one occasion. We were invited to an August festivity – a crayfish party. Lots of shots and songs around the table. But it wasn’t actually the ”shots” that made me feel bad – looked like I was drunk. I was really sick. It was the crayfish – possibly together with the snaps. After I felt an immense aversion to crayfish and do so today too.

So – No thanks to crayfishes!
Seafood delicacies – Yes please!
Yeah! I just got an extra Day. Thought it was the 15th …. Tjohooo!
