In these the darkest days of the year I've been working on improving my sleep. The feeling of waking up fully rested is incredible!
I need time alone to recharge my batteries. And now, after a lot of thinking and some hard work, I do.
I don't know if you've come across the word "lagom". You may have - it's somehow become a buzzword, much to the baffelment of us living in Sweden. I've been thinking about lagom lately.
Why do I want to spend time and energy on blogging? What do I want to get from it? Not fame and fortune, for sure...
Holidays are great... But I love the days in between. The days when time just flows.
For the first time in my life, I've been doing "retail therapy". An interesting experience, but not as good as my usual simple living. I need balance, so today I begin a "Shop No Things" period.
I think the key ingredients to a more joyful life is to clear away the unneccessary and take notice of the sources of joy that are already in my life.
Life is no way near perfect, and neither am I. The key to a simpler, more joyful life is accepting that and building on the good parts.
