Have I told you about that morning the 29th of January when heaven separated the world in ice and fire? How the sun sprinkled gold over everyone who witnessed it, and made a promise to the dead grass that spring will come and you will be in full bloom again, shimmering of green. Just wait.

A Snippet of Summer in Sweden
Sweden is dark nowadays. Therefore I decided to put together this cute little video from last summer when my dogs and I were cuddling in the garden 🙂 A Snippet of Summer in Sweden from Josefine Mattsson on Vimeo.
Scorch & Burn
I am scorching hot I leave burn marks on his skin Or at least he says so I can’t see any He touches me everywhere, literally everywhere It’s a tingling sensation This It fills me with self-esteem I realize he does not want to be close At times He wants to remain close Forever I’veContinue reading “Scorch & Burn”
**Busy**Uploading life to social media**
I believe it’s not a matter of time and place But about how we let us chase and be chased By time, By love, By the worries of our child inside, To experience wonder – nowadays we demand thunder It’s not enough with a train ride to the forest It’s the urge to feel enticed, Baffled,Continue reading “**Busy**Uploading life to social media**”
Crisp Colors
I guess I could write something melodramatic, with a touch of poetry, about how beautiful this afternoon was and how the crisp colors of nature made fireworks in my mind. BUT, instead I’ll let you see for yourself.
Winter Magic- We Saw a Halo
We celebrated mini-christmas in Jämtland – my paradise on earth. On our way back home we witnessed an otherworldly phenomenon: a halo. My father was clever enough to realize the strange rainbow in -17 degrees would become a halo and I was stubborn enough to force him to come to a stop. Two of the other photos areContinue reading “Winter Magic- We Saw a Halo”
Shimmery shining doom
“Maybe” I told him “- it’s midwinter now, hopefully the frosty glitter on the freezing trees will last until January.” “Have you seen the way it sparkles at night? How the glitter plays in the light from the lampposts?” He did not answer. “Hello?” “Yes, yes I have seen it, a long time ago.” “ButContinue reading “Shimmery shining doom”
If Mozart would go clubbing…
…I wonder if he would feel as misplaced as I did last Saturday when I voluntarily went to Collage? Although he was a little rowdy rascal wasn’t he? A ladies man of sorts? Maybe he would have loved all those Stureplan-girls who go clubbing in big fat feather jackets (which stroke my sweaty bare skin in theContinue reading “If Mozart would go clubbing…”
Lightning & Conductor – Such were his eyes in the morning
Did he ever know how his eyes sparked in the morning? Not at first, not those half-dreaming, limbo-sleeping moments, but then, when I touched him, gave him a smile and twinkling eyes – they sparked As if though a lightning hit them and catalyzed energy into them Maybe I was the lightning Maybe he was myContinue reading “Lightning & Conductor – Such were his eyes in the morning”
I Have The Power Over Your Life
It’s a late Thursday-night. My mother and I are talking in the kitchen. Earlier this day our Dachshund, Snaps, with 15 years in his back, took a dump whilst he was eating. He also pees inside the house during night. When we go out on “walks” (50-100m long) he sniffs at one spot for such aContinue reading “I Have The Power Over Your Life”

Last Saturday
Ebba’s birthday + her moving away gathering. She’s spreading her wings and heads in the direction of the north to study. May the White Walkers forever stay away from you. It was one of those nights with old friends and new friends. ….with discussions on heavier topics – feminism, sexual abuse, anxiety, depression. …. withContinue reading “Last Saturday”

53 years alive and 30 years of marriage
Yesterday we drove back home from Skåne. We celebrated mom the night before, for she has turned 53! This week has been lovely. No fighting, no irritation, basically all smiles and love. I believe living in the same house as my parents take it’s toll on our relationship. I am a young adult and IContinue reading “53 years alive and 30 years of marriage”
Getting to know \\ A strangers blend
Those fragile moments, which seem like little eternities in themselves. When the conversation between the two of you is painstakingly nervous, both struggling to find the words, both longing to find out of the awkwardness, to find the connection you both so desperately need. As a bird flaps its’ wings, there it is, suddenly, flared upContinue reading “Getting to know \\ A strangers blend”
Days filled with fun, summer-time!
These last couple of days have been jam-packed with truly fun and heart-warming happenings. Friends en masse, laughter, sun and fun! To remember it all…photobomb: Started out with a fun night with a lady who has been home-bound for the last 2 years because she has gotten a tiny lil’ smiling cutiepie – a son thatContinue reading “Days filled with fun, summer-time!”
6.30
Everyone who’s not in Sweden right now is missing out. I hope you suffer so hard from FOMO that you immediately book a ticket, get your ass over here and in the mean time boost our economy a little 😉 Late bright nights, warm days, hungry eyes, smiling faces, sun-warm skin, people on the streets, lushContinue reading “6.30”
Romanticize the absent mind
Summer. Has. Arrived. IIIIIIIIIIIHHHH! That was my summer-scream. Began this day with a 45 minute walk with my dog. I stopped by a cliff and did some stretch/yoga-movements, stared out over the open water, sun touching my bed-swollen face, thinking: this day will be tremendous. For 45 minutes I was nowhere in my mind, IContinue reading “Romanticize the absent mind”
Restless brain
I’m yearning for adventure, new humans, old friends, laughter, adrenaline-kicks, the ocean, fast runs, sun, sunsets, sunrise, tanned soft skin, kisses, flirts, all smiles, summer-rain, hot weather, become short of breath because of someone, make someone short of breath because of me, breathe the air of the mountains, skinny-dip in mountain lakes and just screamContinue reading “Restless brain”
