Awakenings

17-18th of April: Cross fingers and hope for the sun, the greenest grass and the bluest skies.
Swiss Alps!

Ok no more zen quotes. Here’s something else (maybe not..haha):

Its the time of the year where the number of posts dwindles. I was talking to my Dad a while ago and he said that I had not post for some time already. I thought I should just list the things that I am working on right now in Stockholm Sweden – just 7 months [...]

Knowledge and ignorance are interdependent;
Delusion and enlightenment condition each other.
Since olden times it has been so.
How could it be otherwise now?
Wanting to get rid of one and grab the other
is merely realizing a scene of stupidity.
Even if you speak of the wonder of [...]
