Long time, no see. I’ve been busy with life, to say the least. I got married! A thing I used to vehemently insist I would never want to do. Yet here I am. I love the unpredictability of life. And I love changing. Identity is not a stationary thing, it…

Adventures in Japan
My job sent me to Japan. They joke at work that I’m becoming the agency’s globetrotter, and I guess it’s mostly true. I am far from complaining. Even though I still, after all these years, turn into a puddle of anxiety before every trip, it’s worth it. I love seeing…

The longest journey
The longest journey is the one within A multitude of pathways to explore Infinity resides beneath your skin Inviting you to travel to the core Each step you take will have to be your own In silence you must face what comes your way The darkest road you have to…

A year of celebration
Happy solstice and new year and stuff. How have you been? I’ve had an amazing year. There’s been pain too, but all in all I’m just so grateful to be alive. Thank you, past Tim, for hanging in there. It was so worth it, making it through all that shit.…

Yoga and skeletons
Damn it. I have officially failed in the continuity of my blogging. For the past twelve years I have managed to post at least once a month, until now. Oh well, life goes on. Not like anyone other than me had noticed it, in any case. October was a pretty…

Redemption for a worrying mind
Spring equinox is just around the corner. As usual, I don’t feel ready. For the light, for the heat. For the expectations. Still, there is something stirring within me. My feet are yearning to tread the paths of forest and field. My lungs don’t agree, seeing as they’ve spent the past…

Choosing to thrive
Coming in for landing, at last. New home, nest, lair. New base of operations. Smaller, fewer people. Even more family-like. Priority was given to easy logistics around getting kids to school and ourselves to work, and proximity to forest. Reasonable heating costs. I’ve really grown up, haven’t I? I’m not…

Är det värt att jaga efter en svunnen eufori?
Jag fick prova att åka motorcykel härom veckan. Jag körde inte ens, bara åkte med. Allt jag kände var ångest. En orimlig skräck som fick katastroftankarna att avlösa varandra. Tänk om jag dör nu. Jag är så jävla dum i huvudet som frivilligt gör det här. Tänk vad mycket viktigt…
