Welcome Sweet July
Summer means eating as many fresh from the field strawberries as you want :-)
In a country where winter eats up half of the year summer is holy. During those long, dark months we live in emotional hibernation waiting for spring to bring back light and life. And so it does. Every year we learn it is worth while waiting for. Every year we come out of our hiding places, fill our hungering souls, bloom for a couple of months and remember what life is all about.
Swedish summer is magical and impossible to do justice through a key board. Sitting here with my balcony door open, letting midnight fill the room with scents and summer night's humming I still do not find words to describe it. Of course I am a child of my country and love it just therefore - but I still want to believe there is something more. Dark December is all forgotten and even if someone remembers the depressing sunless midwinter it all pays of in an overflow of light right now. July is the summer peak.
