In the light

When we came to Spain in the beginning of March I noticed how different the weather temperature was between standing in the sun or in the shadow. If you walked around a house you wanted an extra sweater where the house blocked the sun, but you could wear a bikini if you were on the sunny side (and you were a woman).

In Sweden I have never noticed such temperature differences. Maybe there are other things with the light we don't notice?

If you are standing in the shadow, but you know the light, then you probably move towards the light. But if everything is just a grey "something" then maybe you forget how good the light is? Maybe you never move at all?

Many swedes live in a grey "something". We have most of the things we need as far as money, friends, work, education and so on, so it's hard to think that we are really missing something. It is when something really important is taken away from us, that we feel like we are in a dark place, and we try to move towards a better place.

It is when you really know you are standing in the shadow, that you know how much you need the light.
