Sweden Day

Today we celebrate Sweden day!

Regardless of where I live, she is my country. She is no longer my home and she will never be again, other than in my heart. But I am proud to have been raised there, with the values and morals that I have. Having said that, many of ny behaviors are not found in the culture that was my first

So change is possible! We are all programmed by the people who raised us, who were our teachers in school, coaches in sports or other functions, experiences we´ve had, and the good news is that once we grow up we can actively look at the values, beliefs and behaviors we have and question them one by one; Do I want to be/think and keep this, or do I want to change it because it doesn´t go well with who I am at my core?

I am living in a constant state of curiosity – especially regarding humans, this is something that I seem to have been born with. It´s just manifesting differently the past several decades.My whole life I have questioned most that went on around me, and I still do. Most likely because the first thing that happened in my life was that I was adopted.

My purpose is to understand myself and other people more. To go deeper and wider. And what a ride this life is!

I also get to do this for a living. To assist others to do all this. And I get to see their changes, development and growth, literally in front of my own eyes. What a privilege that is!

And I learned a long time ago, that my journey is but for traveling with others on their journeys, in whatever capacity they come into my life. We don´t do this life alone. It takes a village. We. Need. Each. Other.

Today I celebrate a little extra, where it all started for me, and what I got there and then – the good the bad the ugly. Turns out it was all good, in the sense that it has taught me more, about me, and about us all.

And I am special, but like all the rest of us, I ain´t that unique

Happy Sweden Day and thank you – for all I got there
