Sugar free...again

Have you ever made a decision influenced by the convincing speach or passion another person has. You know, those people who make you loose your arguments when you try to say against them..well, once again I fell into the sugarfree trap and made a promise to live basically without sweets during april...I was convinced and inspired at the moment..now I live off the decision..if I said yes, then my yes should be a yes.

So a sugarfree april...I will have an easter egg filled with fruit!
Sugar? No thanks!

Detail vision

I have a really annoing gift.
I see details in rooms, like if a little thing in one room doesnt match the carpet, or if the colours in a room dont go good together.
I see when things dont stand straight, like chairs, pillows, decorative things..
I always vision things, like how it could look, how you can combinate and change a room to make it feel more right.
This could be a really good thing to know, like when you move in to a new place to make it nice..or it makes me wanna keep it clean.
But it is also very distracting..cuz when I am supposed to focuse I am seeing all of theese things and it triggers my mind to start planning the improving of my house! Bahhhhhhhh...I wish I could switch it off! I need to study!

Back to the 80´s

Every girl knows that picking out clothes can be a big problem sometimes..espacially when you feel like you want to wear a certain type of clothes but you dont seem to have it in your possesion. So then you pick out something and then change and then change and then change again, til you finally put on the thing you had on first and feel somewhat not happy with your outfit for the rest of the day...oh man..what issues we have!
Anyways, today I had that problem..but not in the cathagory of trying to look nice and feel like "you" but digging through my closet trying to find clothes that look like the 80´s...basically trying to find stuff to look funny in.
I figured something out..leopard and pink wooho!
But it made me think, how could they wear theese clothes and not see how insane it looked?
Do you think we will look back in 20 years and think that what we were wearing in 10´s was ugly? Is it even possible to ever have a fashion that extreme again? I think not. But I bet it was a blast in the 80´s wearing all those clothes..very colourful and fun!

To cheat or not to cheat, should not be the question.

I have become used to it.
I live in a sociaty where relationships and marriage no longer are respected or valued.
Where promises dont mean anything, but what you feel like doing for the moment is what matters.
Where individualism has suffocated families and doing what is "best for me" is the trend. But what we loose because this is so much more important;
Trust,reliance, knowing that the one closest to you never will turn their back on you but always be there. That is worth way more.
But this is not something that will just fall on you, having a functioning family is something you need to work for.
To put the other one higher than yourself.
I know, you are not allowed to say that in Sweden. Higher than yourself?!
What about my dreams and my desires?

But do you know what?
Investing in other people makes them want to invest in you and then it is a win win situation. You put him/her higher, she/he puts you higher.
But the fall is hard when you stand alone.

The reason for this blog post is that there are commercials on tv and everywhere around the city for a site that encourages unfaithfulness
The fact that people even think it is ok.

Sure, play around a little..but to what cost? Is not the person next to you worth so much more?
There might be issues in the relationship, but then you work on it..or you dont make those promises.
Promises are made to be kept.
To cheat will not solve anything,not in anyones life, it will create more problems.
I think it is awful that this website is making this sort of propaganda and use the fact that people have a hard time.
Not just to cost of the person using it, but to the partner that doesnt know anything.
But as I said, Im starting to get used this. It does not shock me anymore and that is scary.

I choose to see the marriage as something you need to take care of
To protect the one I give my promises to.
I know that once you said your yes, it is for life, it is a decision to love that person everyday.
Cause I would never want to be cheated on, like no one else wants to be.

I have never reacted this strongly on anything that I have seen advertised before, but this one...
Famlilies are already broken, so why dont we try and build them up instead. Advertise that!
God created the family as a safe zone..and I wish more people could have it how it was intended to be.
But that is a choice.

Barca day 2

Dear diary..I mean blog
Today I woke up and went to eat a a cafe, had churros(fried dough) and an omelette that looked like a pie..tasted like an omelette though..which is what matters, and a weird juice made out of cashew fruit, a good surprise I must say.
Breakfast is somehow much yummier when you eat it outside of ypur own house...

Then we got ourselves a ticket to the tour bus and got on it. AND THE CITY IS EVEN PRETTIER than I thought!!
every other building looks like a piece of art and there is sooooooooooooo much history behind alot of them. This makes me frustrated cuz I didnt have the time to enter one museum yet, not anything else like that..no castles, no monatries...I need more time!!!

The ride on the bus was a long one, because Barcelona is sorta a big city.
I jumped of at the beach and the wind was mild, and the sun was shining and people were going on rollerskates and boards, and surfing and lying on the beach trying to get a tan. The weather was in other words JUST PEACHY :) took a long walk along the shore after chasing the waves for a while and getting my pants soaked and sandy.
Ate a lot of icecream in the warm warm sun, meanwhile amazing street musicains where playing their songs making the atmosphere even more sweet in a retro sort of way.

Later on, the tour again to see the Gothic district, the Barca stadium (oh yeah) the sagrada familia (an insanly cool church) the castles and wnet by alot of museums that I really just wanted to visit (all of them) like the history of catalonia, chocolate museum, picasso, contemparay art, the park of Gaudi (the man who made alot of the cool architecture on Barcelona, like for instanse Sagrada the familia, which took him 40 years and still wasnt finished)

I had an intense and fun day but when I was going to have my fika of the night..or food of the night I lost my dad and i got lost...and I had very little money on me..and no working phone, and it was late and dark.
So, I aksed and looked and walked and walked and finally I found my way, after more than one hour. Then I was lucky and found a little shop that was open til late so I had some night milk haha :) So now I am here, writing this drinking my milk!
One more day and then..¨Sweden you better be ready to be getting some spring cause I do not wanna come back to winter!

Barcelona

Barcelona is without doubt one of the most interesting places I ever visited so far! It breathes culture! I feel like I have found a place where people are culture estetic not just in certain areas, but the whole city is culture, architeture, music, history! Wow! Everything here is art, the clothing shops, the people, the houses, the churches! People dress so cool, and the music is jazzy and latino inspired at the same time. I love it! I have no idea how I am supposed to manage to see and do everything in two days! I feel like a child that walked into a huge toy store and just want to touch and see and explore everything!
Today I took a walk around an area called La Rambla, and found an interior design shop that I stayed in for more than one hour I think.
The shop had stuff like bowls and cups and art and jewelery and clocks and a bunch of statue thingies and almost everything was inspired by a mosaiacs type of style. In fact I think alot in this city is inspired by that.
I wanted to buy everything ofcourse! But I decided I will take a day and think about what I could actually use, so probably some kitchen thingy it will be..but wow...that store had almost everything I want to decorate my house with in the future..hard since I live three hours away by flight and the shop is here...they should just open one in Stockholm in my opinion.

Now I know I can get very entusiastic about alot but this time I mean it, REALLY, this city is worth big times to see! I need to, want to and will come back here someday and make sure I have more time then.

Tomorrow I hope to see some cool museums, I saw a sign for an art museum..so hopefully that will be something worth seeing!
But now I will do something that goes against my will, but was a choice made out of me trying to think smart; I will go to sleep. Despite all the lights and people and music outside! Cause tomorrow I plan to never go to sleep and then I have to have some energy to draw from! So gonite!

And oh yeah, I might mention that I think this city is so cool despite that it was pouring rain the entire day and all is wet and grey.
Imagine the summer then..I need to go back here..for real

Supersunday

Wow, what a Supersunday we had at Nalen!
A bunch of people came that usually dont go to church and Johannes preached so well with illustrations made by some other amazing Sos people! I am so proud over my church!
I had the joy to sing on stage and as Johannes invited people for salvation it was so cool to see peoples faces and how they were touched by God. God really did something! People were also healed!
It is amazing to be part of an alive and growing church in the big city and see miracles and transformed lives...and fun too!

say 3 positive things

Since I am always saying "find 3 positive things" about every situation, I thaught I would do it this morning aswell, when my throat is killing me, and my cough did not let me have much sleep! BUT:

1. I got to wake up and know that I have a HOT shower that really awakens and sothes the rispy throat :)

2. I had my mom take care of me yesterday..and thats LOVE

3. I get to have a whisky voice and that is olalala! So I am gonna enjoy it :D

See, now all of the sudden it is not as bad to be a little sick, one might even say a little fun! Now you try!
