Facebook usually asks this question. And I have a too long answer for a “status line” on Facebook so I am writing here:
I have come back from Fredrikstad an hour ago. Am in Göteborg now, in IOGT International office . I find it pretty cool. I slept here yesterday before going to the AC meeting in Norway and now I´ll sleep here afterwards. The reason is the pretty complicated connection to Örebro but I do not complain. Being here helped me to tune my mind for this day.
When I studied at the University, I used to feel thankful every day I went home after several hours of lectures. I felt I had spent the day meaningful and that I had been moving forward. I have missed this feeling for some time now. I still thought that my days have been meaningful but the feeling was missing. Interesting enough but there was no time for the feeling. Recently I have been bouncing between deadlines and questioning my work. I haven´t stopped believing in what I am doing but I have been wondering whether there is general need for the “service” I offer or whether I just do it for my own good feeling about myself. All the campaigns and seminars and workshops and lectures and concepts and articles…I have enjoyed doing most of it but is anyone profiting out of it? In any sense – from a good feeling to a new motivation. Having this thoughts on my mind, I haven´t felt the thankfulness for my life in my heart for some time.
I felt it today. At such moments I feel my eyes are more open, I feel stronger and walk straight. I smile.
I needed this day. I needed to meet people who think in the same direction as I do (eventhough I am sure we have many different opinions). I felt I have grown. As a person, as a board member. And I felt inspiration. I was around people who make me dream, who make me have plans, who make me wanna see a new personal goal.
I am tired right now. Physically. Feel a bit dizzy because of lack of sleep but I also feel fresh. Mentally. And I feel I am at the right place right now.
