I want to reach my non-swedish-speaking friends, hence the change of this blog hummelobrak.blogspot.se. Within some time this address will disappear. But! You've got the right to stay calm ;) I'm already avaliable on the new address flowersbyelin.blogspot.se where more posts will be written in english.


See you in a little!

What do we stand up for?



What do you stand up for? 
Do you stand up for human rights? Do you stand up for love? Do you stand up for truth? Do you stand up for care? What do you stand up for?

You see, the world is the way it is because enough of us have not stood up, for the right thing. We have allowed things to be however it wants to be. It is time for the whole humanity to stand up. What do you stand up for?

All this while, what have you stood up for? Have you stood up for your happiness? Have you stood up for the happiness of another? Have you stood up for nature? Have you stood up for harmony? 

What do you Want to stand up for and what do you choose to stand up for? Meditate on this question. Because, humanity as a whole depends on each one of us making a stand. 

Words well spoken by Dhyan Vimal.

As we are, we change


What am I changing, being me, in my life and in others? When I am with others, am I changing them to become happier, more fulfilled? Or am I changing them for the worst? In my environment, am I changing nature to bloom or am I destroying nature? As we are, we change. Every one of us are participating in some form of changing. 

I was meditating upon todays mastery challenge and found that... 
By being me I offer possibilities to discover alternative ways of living. I encourage others to be kinder, humbler, less needy and more giving.

By being me I show how to have faith in what will be will be. I trust that each one of us can make a difference. I contribute by  bringing others closer to who and how they want to be. Or not to be..

By being me I am allowing change. I also allow the wait. Or at least I try to. Let's say it's on my current long-term missions.. ^^ To sum up a bit; I make things flower. I grow flowers, I make flowers, I smell flowers, I love flowers, I wear flowers and I eat flowers! I inspire my surrounding in my own way by spreading fortune flowers wherever I go. 

As I am, I am changing things for the better. Yes, that's what I (in)tend to.

This is awesome, but..

Constantly partaking in others news and being online most of the hours gives you less time for your own creativity. Obviously. What I mean is that it seems more common nowadays disappearing into someone elses world instead of taking care of our own.  The digitization of our society increases our ability to communicate and share information. That is awesome, but pay attention! It is also stealing the now.


Your life is your message to this world. Make sure it's inspiring.

Joshua James and travelling merry men

The band Joshua James from the U.S. found me on couchsurfing and asked for a place to stay in my town during their tour in Europe. Having them here, providing them with nutritious food, clean sheet and contributing to their life experiences made me feel so rich! With much too much preparations and much too little sleep in my pockets I'm tired like someone a thousand years old. Now, who will catch me when I faint by awesomeness? XD

Thank you for letting me share a fraction of your lives, pick up new words, share your laughs and your hearts :) Thank you for letting me practice my b'n'b-skills with Extra Everything XD There's still some home made hand picked C-vitamin super loaded creamy rose hip smoothie for you on your "foods-by-Elin-must-try-list". Whenever you're ready..

          Thank You for the music guys and take good care!

'Let the rain kiss you
                   Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops
                                         Let the rain sing you a lullaby
                            and remember, the weather is always in the heart'
