Winter heart

26/01/10

Winter is back 5I love winter. It is not so common, I think, it is more common to like summer or spring. I have always loved winter.  When I was a child, I lived in Finland and we had always real winters with cold degrees and a lot of snow there I lived. I loved to go skiing.

During many years I didn’t goskiing. In my home town in Sweden, where I have lived the most part of my life, the winters haven’t usually lasted that long. And when the snow came, during many years I didn’t know where my skiing equipment was. I envied every winter others that went skiing.

When I think about it now, it seems so stupid that I didn’t go skiing for many years!

Lots of snow fell a week before Chrismas. A new year came with new year’s resolutions and new possiblities.  I decided to look for my skiis in our store. And there, behind everything else, I found my skiis! I also found my ski sticks and my skiing boots. My skiing jacket and my skiing mittens were gone, my skiing cap, too:) Isn’t it strange that things just disappear, they are not stolen but they are just gone!:)

I had bought a new jacket last autumn. When my old skiing jacket was gone I spent one day sawing to improve my new one making it more suitable for skiing. I bought new skiing mittens. After 2 days I finally had my skiing equipment available and ready.

It was such an experience to go skiing again.  The first day we had at least 15 degrees below zero Celsius. To feel the cold wind on my cheeks, I really love it. I also noticed that my condition really needed to improve:)  I now go skiing every day. I love that I don’t need to envy others on the ski track any more, I am one of them, it makes me very happy! I hope that this winter that has been colder and longer that for decades in the whle country, will last as long as possible. The colder the better:) I know some of you don’t agree:) But I love winter.

It is so beautiful in forest where I ski. It is amazing to see all snowy trees. All nature looks wonderful covered with snow.

On facebook people send hearts to each other, silver hearts, golden hearts, bubbling hearts, summer hearts, treasured hearts, snowy hearts, thank you all for sending me many beautiful hearts. What about my heart? I must have a winter heart!

  1. Tack älskade Maini för att Du delar med Dig!
    Mina nyårslöften att bedja igenom mina barn och deras familjer till lycka och välgång.
    Viktigt att ha seger hemmavid först så man sedan kan gå vidare i andra uppgifter.
    Jag gillar inte vinter och kyla utan längtar till Kaliforniens soliga sanddynor där delar av min familj varit över jul.
    Allt gott och lycka till i Dina strävanden!Kram!//Birgit

  3. Hi dear Maini. I like your post very much. It must have been a great feeling to find your equipment and start skiing again. I agree, the nature in winter ( a real, white winter) is so wonderful. I love it too. We had lots of snow here in south of Sweden and it was really cold, down to -18° C. I thought it was magic. So silent, so clear and pure, the snow sparkling in the sun. It was easier to see the deers, lots of them, looking for some food (poor them). So I understand you when you say that you love winter. My compliments for all your success, you deserve it. Hugs, Gabriella
