I – Enigmas new album I have praised Enigma as a key part of my musical journey, all categories defined. It stands in its own right as something to always fall back to, in moments of turmoil and passages of joy. In short – it just is. Music for (my!) health, in its very core! I stumbled upon their new single some month ago, connecting the circle some 25 years back, with the new Sadeness II – reflecting back to their breakthrough single Sadeness I, 1990, and taking it to a “now”. And tonight, being quite much offline and not…

Soto Two Years – HOORAY HOORAY HOORAY HOORAY! <3 | #blog101 #SotoTheCat #LoveDeclaration
Soto might be the most perfect family cat ever. She came when she was needed the most in our family. Just some few days before we got to know the diagnosis of Mika’s heart disease during the pregnancy. She helped us cope through those days. And, well, since then, I could count so many times and events, and share so many traits, that makes her just that – The Family Cat! Of course, Uchi and Deshi are perfect family cats as well – three very distinct personalities, helping us out in the highs and lows. I do not have the…
Up and Down and Up and Down And Up … But After All – It’s Friday! | #blog101 #Curated #FridayFlow
Hi, there! Blogging, in times of narrow passages, gets lean and thin. Which trains me to get straight-to-the-point. Read the “meta-data”, read “in-between-the-lines”, read what’s not being shared and said. The space for me, blogging, gets down to almost zero. BUT – I keep my annual challenge, going – one blog post, every day! Towards blog 366 … Ok, sharing some fun and great from the week passing – as well as the loss of a poet and musician who left a very very very great mark in the history of music :*(. 1. xkcd always deliver – quirky humor!…
… and still – All Is Love! | #blog101 #family #picflow
While Little Jinder interpreted Freddie Wadling today on the Swedish TV show ‘Så Mycket Bättre’, as a way to enforce and induce hope, love and joy … Mika. Love Hero. In Play! Captured by Karin ♡.
Intentions vs Realities | #blog101 #FlowOfLife #MondayMacroscope
In short: Get real. I have practiced the art of complicating it for myself all too long. Enough with that. What has been, and what to become, is only one way to relate to: What was, is not now. And what to become, you do. Yes. Do! IN PROCESS … is to boil down to one-and-one-only to solve the very hard equation to “find your element”, where I unify making a living that harmonizes with what’s important for me (to which you can read in my About Page), at the same time doing stuff that I have space and ability…
America – Where Are You Going? | #blog101 #Music4Health #playlist
A playlist that made my Sunday. Music, and humour! All will be ok. Take this to strengthen your power, through our Tuesday. You know what I mean.
Music For The Weekend – Love Public Service! | #blog101 #playlist
Here is a list we follow. P3 is Swedish national radio, and here is their current playlist, which is updated weekly on Fridays. I like it because they are not so fixated with the “top 40” stuff like the commercial channels, which leads to a greater discovery range. Almost 8hrs of music, providing lots of stuff to get in the Shuffle mode. Enjoy!

Just thinking aloud, an imagination. The Spotify Experience is here. The embed of Spotify into WordPress, not working, right now.

Musical Memories | #blog101 #Music4Health #DayPlayList
If I step into the flow to give you the full story of primary associations to all the tunes here, it would take too much of my writing energy and your reading focus. Where I guess it takes energy to focus, right? Well, straight to the point. Punch line. The tune ending this playlist, is in fact one of my first identified ‘musical memories’, where I remember artist and title of the song. Sliding back the timeline of my life, I was around seven years old or so, in 1974, and I tuned in to Radio Luxemburg on our kitchen…
Things Making Your Day | #blog366 #PhotoStory
We made a Longwalk today, Karin, Mika and I. Pokemon Go Halloween Special, extra rewarding for my Karin! Me, supporting. We had main target to visit a charity store in Ingelsta, where giving = fika! And we found some Xmas gifts already – books! And I am truly proud of Karin pushing her limits, out walking like this. Almost 12k steps. Yay!. A visit to neighbouring toy store. Roar! Before going. In bed. Mika wants to govern the gadget! Photo by Karin – this time! At Hovet, Stockholm. Jean-Michel Jarre, live. Feeling the vibes from my friends, on distance. Will…
