Oh, look! It’s a new year! ⠀⠀ I totally forgot to share this photo last week. It was taken at @luxhelsinki, a yearly light art festival around here. ⠀⠀ My 2019 has started pretty much the same as before. No news really. I continue to procrastinate with redesigning my site, and I still work with @superlaiffi. If you understand Finnish, check out the latest episode of Superlaiffi podcast with guest @pinyataa. ⠀⠀ All and all, I’m okay. Just haven’t felt like posting anything. It’s so dark, taking photos takes extra effort. Mainly I just try not to stress about stuff, especially things that are almost or completely out of my control. Kinda taking a day at a time. ⠀⠀ How’s your year going so far? . . . . . #iambeingpresent #iambuildingpresence #merviemilia #theeverydayproject #theartofslowliving #momentsofmine #theslowdowncollective #photosinbetween #theeverygirl #quietthechaos #myunicornlife #mymoments #howyouglow #colorventures #postthepeople #thegirlgang #flashesofdelight #littlestoriesofmylife #littlestoriesofmine #girlboss #myeverydaymagic #goodthoughts #nothingisordinary #meetthemoment #selfloveclub #mybeautifulmess #liveauthentic #highvibelife #youaremagic Mervi’s Joulu Calendar, Day 24: Happy Merry! ⠀⠀ Have a great, enjoyable, peaceful joulu! ⠀⠀ ❤️ Mervi’s Joulu Calendar, Day 23: Are we there yet? ⠀⠀ Life is never ready. You are never all done. Every day you are on the way, wherever there is. You are allowed to change your direction, choose a new there. You have as much time as you do, there’s no need to hurry. ⠀⠀ I have never been into bucket lists. Life is too unpredictable to think I’d need to do certain things for it to be fulfilled. ⠀⠀ No, we aren’t there yet. Or ever. You are here and now. ⠀⠀ What is the most enjoyable thing in your life this moment? . . . . . #iambeingpresent #iambuildingpresence #merviemilia #theeverydayproject #postmoreportraits #theartofslowliving #momentsofmine #theslowdowncollective #photosinbetween #theeverygirl #portraitpage #quietthechaos #makeportraits #myunicornlife #folkportraits #mymoments #howyouglow #colorventures #makeportraitsnotwar #postthepeople #portraitsociety #flashesofdelight #mylifestyle #littlestoriesofmylife #littlestoriesofmine #girlboss #joulukalenteri #joulu #slowliving #feelfreefeed Mervi’s Joulu Calendar, Day 22: A penny for your thoughts ⠀⠀ “I don’t understand the people who fall asleep immediately. Don’t they have thoughts?” ⠀⠀ Reading that, I chuckled. Indeed. How can people sleep so easily, if their heads are as filled with thoughts as mine? ⠀⠀ I have a tendency to overthink everything. I get lost in a thought, and can’t find a way out of it. Day and night, thoughts take over. ⠀⠀ You can see a glimpse of those thoughts, reading them here and (soon more) on my blog. Not that I think most of my thoughts are that special. They are just plenty. ⠀⠀ Frankly, though, I think thinking doesn’t prove I am. Or doubting. I wonder if Descartes would have a word about it with me. My French needs a serious brush-up… ⠀⠀ Do you overthink stuff? . . . . . #iambeingpresent #iambuildingpresence #merviemilia #theeverydayproject #postmoreportraits #theartofslowliving #momentsofmine #theslowdowncollective #photosinbetween #theeverygirl #portraitpage #quietthechaos #makeportraits #myunicornlife #folkportraits #mymoments #howyouglow #colorventures #makeportraitsnotwar #thegirlgang #bossbabes #portraitsociety #flashesofdelight #mylifestyle #girlboss #myeverydaymagic #joulukalenteri #joulu #littlestoriesofmylife #littlestoriesofmine Mervi’s Joulu Calendar, Day 21: Solstice ⠀⠀ On the Southern Hemisphere it’s the longest day of the year. Here, at north, it’s the shortest. Darkest. In Finland it’s usually considered to be midwinter, after which the light increases. ⠀⠀ Both solstices are times of magic and spells. The bad spirits are to be scared away and the sun to be asked to come back. Lights and fires are to be lit, songs to be sang, gifts to be given, and little spells to be cast. All for good fortune and the better future. ⠀⠀ Today I learned the solstice itself lasts only for a moment. And because it occurs at different times on different timezones, the day of the solstice varies. In our local time it’ll be December 22. (Did you see my last post about time?) ⠀⠀ So I will say happy solstice today, and extend the greetings to tomorrow. This celebration is a continuous one! ⠀⠀ Which old traditions and beliefs (religious or otherwise) do you partake in? . . . . . #iambeingpresent #iambuildingpresence #merviemilia #theeverydayproject #postmoreportraits #theartofslowliving #momentsofmine #theslowdowncollective #photosinbetween #theeverygirl #portraitpage #quietthechaos #makeportraits #myunicornlife #folkportraits #mymoments #howyouglow #colorventures #makeportraitsnotwar #postthepeople #portraitsociety #flashesofdelight #ootd #girlboss #myeverydaymagic #joulukalenteri #joulu #fashiondiaries #hmxme #mylifestyle @hm Mervi’s Joulu Calendar, Day 20: It’s 5 o’clock somewhere ⠀⠀ I admit, the day has already changed to another one around here. And I know, some of you are already deep in Friday. ⠀⠀ Time is funny like that. It depends. Einstein said something about the line between past, present and future being an illusion. Time is malleable, flexible and relative. ⠀⠀ You don’t have time. You observe it, experience it in a certain way. ⠀⠀ It may be our inability to experience the time in any other way than as linear, forward going that holds us. In a sense, we are stuck in time. ⠀⠀ If you could “travel” anywhere in spacetime, where would you go? . . . . . #iambeingpresent #iambuildingpresence #merviemilia #theeverydayproject #postmoreportraits #theartofslowliving #momentsofmine #theslowdowncollective #photosinbetween #theeverygirl #portraitpage #quietthechaos #makeportraits #myunicornlife #folkportraits #mymoments #howyouglow #colorventures #makeportraitsnotwar #postthepeople #thegirlgang #portraitsociety #flashesofdelight #littlestoriesofmylife #girlboss #myeverydaymagic #littlestoriesofmine #joulukalenteri #joulu #bikbok @bikbok
