Meeting new people

Today I have been out of the office almost all day long, the reason behind this was a meeting regarding how do develop our surrounding for our youth?

"Leader" an organization who is working with development took the initiative to this meeting, as Barbro who called me last week expressed it: “I want your brain and your thoughts”. It did not turn out to be as brutal as it might sound, after a nice lunch together with six other “youngsters” with a cup of coffee in my hand I was ready to discuss how to change my surrounding! We spoke about things like “what attracts young people?”, “where do they hang out?” and “how can we improve their spare time?”. It was quite interesting to take an outsiders point of view and analyze myself and the habits I had when I was younger. I remember taking two busses who each took 45 minutes and then having to wait 30 minutes to get in to the venue where the band I sort of was interested in hearing were playing. Then me and my friends normally would have to leave about 20 minutes before the whole thing ended just so we could catch one of the two busses home again! When I was younger I didn´t have any problems with travelling, that´s for sure! All this hassle just because we didn´t have anything better to do, and as a 15-yearold I did not want to spend my Saturday night at home with my parents. Which 15-yearsold really do?

Anyways, we discussed these matters and how the society could improve in order to get the youngsters of today active and happy about the society they are growing up in, it was a great afternoon with many different ideas, thoughts, opinions and dreams to fulfill. I got really inspired and can´t wait until next gathering!

Hello out there

Well last evening when I was at the stable, as I always are every day. I just felt that it had started to be colder outside. I couldn't be without my "oil" coat!!! Noo, noo my thoughts come at once. I don´t like the autumn and the dark moist weather that will come more and more :(. I prefer spring and summer and warm weather, i want sun! By other words I don´t like the change from summer to autumn.
One nice thing it is, just one, the colours that will appear in the trees, that can be really amasing! Hmm actually one more thing, you can harvest the things that you have sowed and eat it up.


Some nice colours in a rowanberry tree. You can actually do jelly out of these!

Ohh by the way, yesterday we collected the first examples of the two Spanish books "La Dama De Negro" and "31 Cuentos Cortos". That was really nice to have them in the hands, to see them. It was hard to do them because I can´t speak Spanish and didn´t understand more than a very few words!

And at the same time I collected my new passport and Id card, jiiipppiii. Now, now I can go somewhere, don´t know where yet but I have some thoughts and wishes :-). Like I have write somewhere else (FB) i can be "free to fly like a dove and free to go wherever I want". I´m really happy about this.

So bye bye for this time
