Let the light in / Släpp in ljuset

The Gothenburg Cathedral is centrally located in Gothenburg and dates back to the 17th century. The church has a quiet and secluded light chapel where one can sit down for a while and light a candle. A room for silence, rest and reflection. Lighting a candle can mean gratitude or be a wordless prayer. Sometimes it can be hard to express words when life is difficult but also when life is full of joy. For me, the light gives a sense of humanity. That someone was here to light a candle and share its light. 🙏

Göteborgs Domkyrka ligger centralt i Göteborg och har anor sedan 1600-talet. Kyrkan har ett tyst och avskilt ljuskapell där man kan sätta sig ner en stund och tända ett ljus. Ett rum för tystnad, vila och eftertanke. Att tända ljus kan betyda tacksamhet eller vara en ordlös bön. Ibland kan det vara svårt att uttrycka ord när livet är svårt men även när livet är fullt av glädje. För mig ger ljusen en känsla av medmänsklighet. Att någon precis som jag varit här för att tända ett ljus och tillsammans sprida det. 🙏

      I think these are more calm, but on Friday and Saturday evenings there can be more people out to dine.
      I wish you all the best.

The joy of crochet / Virkglädje

Image
If someone would have told me a few years ago that someday I would start to crochet, I would never have believed them. I never really understood how people could find book reading or handcraft so relaxing, but I did envy them for it. I was more of the training type of person. But, you should never say never and not stop learning more about yourself. You can have more aptitudes then you realise. They can be well hidden and never tried. So this Christmas, after becoming interested, I was taught to crochet and I have been hooked 😊 ever since. I continued on my own with help from Youtube clips. They make it easy to just stop and try yourself at your own speed. I have since then crocheted granny squares and flowers and other techniques and I'm still appreciating the fun of being more creative. Crochet is so much more than a hobby. It is pure mindfulness. It has something to do with using your hands, just like cooking and gardening. You become calm and focused. I even heard that crochet...

Beautiful in every way / Vackert på alla sätt

Sometimes you get days that are beautiful in every way. Such happiness it is to experience a Sunday in September while the summer is still around. A perfect day for a small trip. We have decided to visit Gunnebo House and Gardens that with bus from Gothenburg takes about 15 minutes to reach. As I enter the Gunnebo House environment, I immediately get a wow-feeling. Here it is beautiful like a dream and there is so much to look at of this 17th century property, which is well preserved and well maintained. I smell the lavender on our way up to the House, the lovely smell of lavender is hard to beat. In the southern garden we sit down and enjoy the sun, the surroundings and our bag of tea and fruit. After that we take a walk around Gunnebo cultural reserve and watch the cows as they rest in the shade. On our way back we walk around the kitchen garden next to Gunnebo Coffee House and Restaurant, here grows vegetables, herbs and flowers among other things. The tomatoes smell just as good ...
