The first snow has started falling here in Stockholm. A lot of it.
It’s like winter is making up for lost time. Like it’s been breathing in, and now it’s breathing it all out.
I feel it’s very much the same with creativity. It’s not a continuous exhalation. It comes in waves.

Recharged, reborn, and released.
Breathing in, breathing out...
