With eyes sensitive for green

This is an old blogpost from another blog. The spring hasn´t come this far in Sweden yet but I republish it now since it illustrates current phase in life and soon in nature. Old snow melted away a month ago, life starts now to stir in threes, bushes ground and myself. Temporarily backlashes like this day's mini blizzard is not important.

Remember - There is always another side of that other side.

When it snows - there is sunshine just a few hundred meters above your head. It may melt in a few hours like today.

This was my other side last year in May. It is my other side  right now....or to be more true my current side.

Where did all the snow go? The snow I suspected would stay until midsummer. It's gone. Vanished. Totally. In just a few weeks winter turned into summer. A weekend hotter than last summer made me wonder - is this summer going to be as hot as last winter was cold? Have we moved to another latitude? Is that big ball called planet earth totally screwed?

For the moment I just enjoy and follow the path deep into the wood. I breathe. I smell. I hear the blackbirds and a hysterical thrush imitating at least ten different birds. It makes me smile. Soundsample

My feets softly treads the soft moss.

I can taste the sour juice from lime coloured spine sprouts.

I can feel the soft and damp air caressing my cheeks.

The moment of sanctuary fills my whole body and mind.

With eyes sensitive for green …I proceed.

One thing I was remembered about today is ho easy it is to presume
things when there actually is too little information provided.
And no one cares for more but still draw conclusions.

Or when someone gives you the option to tell the missing
information but cannot manage to listen.
Hands on both ears and eyes.
Or simply are unwilling or
perhaps unable to listen.

That is OK!
Be happy!

But do not draw conclusions if input is poor
Go out in the woods instead
And breathe!

I do that - I love it!
