Shifting focus. The beginning of a new year is always a wonderful opportunity to shift focus. Even though I do not believe in new year's resolutions, because change needs to be done when necessary (which is rarely just once a year), I do always have a special feeling about the beginning of January. The year feels like the untouched pages of history yet to be written and something about that excited me. Quickly we will move towards brighter days and soon enough nights will start to fade and make way for brighter, longer days again. I have lately been very inactive on social media, because I felt the strong need to focus on other things in life, but with the light, energy is returning and so is my creativity and desire to share the beauty around me. I have yet to go out and photograph in the deep snow that the recent snowstorm has brought us and for that I need to find a way to move in the hip-deep snow, but these are problems for another day. Meanwhile I hope you all have had a wonderful start into the new year and have been well! 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #littlewoodlandwhimsies #savouringtheseasons (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnPyzhRLAOJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hi!! this is really random, but I’ve been meaning to send in an ask/a message ever since I saw one of your posts on Naruto.
I also started watching Naruto last year (at the beginning of 2021, late to the party, because at first I thought shonen and the fights and everything wouldn’t be my thing. I was wrong.) and I absolutely fell in love with the show and its characters. I’ve never been this invested in a show and it’s characters before (and felt so much for the characters before, to the point where it literally hurts to see them hurt), and I totally didn’t see that coming when I started watching. (even want to get a tablet to make fanart)
I read one of your takes a while ago about Kakashi’s past and how it’s similar to Inari’s situation (just after I watched Kakashi Gaiden actually), and I’ve been thinking about it for a while now as Kakashi is my favourite character.
I friggin love how you point out narrative parallels. (I still wanted to ask by the way, do you think that Kishimoto intentionally made Kakashi and Inari’s situation similar? Because it’s so early on in the story. I think it’s really cool either way.) Haven’t read that many posts from you because I’m still somewhere around 330 in Shippuden, but I’d totally look for your other takes if it weren’t for the spoilers.
Like I just saw a post from you from somewhere at the end of 2020 (I think one of your first posts on Naruto?) Can’t comment on the post but it’s the one where you mention how at the end of Part 1 Sasuke wants to unlock the Mangekyou and gain more power by killing Naruto, and how on the other hand, Kakashi got his power probably not even wanting it in the first place. But I was honestly surprised by how on point you were about Kakashi’s sharingan and in what kind of situation he aqcuired it, and especially how he feels about it.
I was also writing down some of my own theories back then and a few seasons in I think I only gathered that it wasn’t originally his own, since Sasuke’s sharingan could deactivate and because of the scar. At first I thought he must have gotten it from someone, probably another fallen shinobi. I think there was one scene where Kakashi stood at Obito’s grave in the first part of Naruto and talked about ‘this eye’ to Obito & I think I made the connection then that he might have gotten it from his friend. (I always imagined Obito as a young adult or adult though, never would have though he was only a kid.)
How far are you into the show right now? Cause I remember your blog said you were trying to avoid spoilers. I think you’re much further than me though.
Oh and btw, do you read the manga too? & do you ever rewatch episodes to understand them better?
I don’t know many people irl who are interested in Naruto and discussing it, and the internet absolutely filled with spoilers😭 I’m honestly so sad about some spoilers, because some things I’m pretty sure I would never have guessed and… well there’s not much I can do about it now :’) The constant urge of wanting to talk to people about it and find more content on the internet but also the fear of being spoiled randomly on literally any social media platform😭 My little brother has been watching the show for the first time too, but he doesn’t really like to discuss it or talk much about it.
It makes me so happy to see other people who are also invested in the show!
Anyways, I loved your takes, and wanted to say hi :) Sorry for invading your inbox!
Would it be alright to message you about Naruto or send in other asks? And I would totally follow you if if weren’t for the potential spoilers.
PS: I just found out that tumblr archives are a thing! I didn’t really use my tumblr account that much before so didn’t know how everything works. I’m so happy haha! Now I wish I’d found this blog earlier.
PPS: I just saw the ask @dreamersescape sent in about watching Naruto for the first time with her brother (though I didn’t read her take under that because I haven’t got to that part in the show yet) and that’s..that’s exactly how I feel😭!! It’s the same with my brother😂! I’m overly invested and he’s just doesn’t care that much.
I’m on a short trip with a friend for a few days and I was going to wait until I got back to send this, but I was literally too excited to wait.
Hi there!  Seems like you, me, and @dreamersscape should start a “My Sibling and I Watched Naruto for the First Time in 2021” club - we could get matching t-shirts! :)
I’m very similar to you in that I completely did not expect to enjoy Naruto as much as I did - or at all!  I haven’t watched much anime in the past (Fullmetal Alchemist being the exception, and even that I only watched for the first time a couple years ago), and the only thing I knew about Naruto was what my friends had mentioned when we were much younger and they were watching it as it aired - the only snippets I remember were them talking about who could beat whom in a fight, so I kind of mentally equated Naruto to DBZ in my head and wrote it off, assuming I would hate it. X)  Nobody ever told me that it was really about radical compassion, and breaking cycles of violence, or the duty of adults/teachers to protect children, or the power of love and community to save us from despair - if I’d known that, I would have watched it ages ago.
Kakashi is my favorite character, too.  It took me a little while to actually get invested in the show as a whole (I didn’t really start to be fully compelled by it until the post-Chunin exams arc where Itachi first returns to the Leaf, aka the point where the plot picks up and starts actually moving faster), but Kakashi’s character kept me interested long enough to reach that point.  I was fascinated by him right from the beginning, and I fell hard for him after that Inari scene you mentioned.  (Re: your question - I don’t know whether that parallel with Kakashi was intentional or not, but I guess I don’t really feel like it matters - it’s there in the text either way, and for me it really adds something to that whole arc.)
Re: Kakashi’s eye - that was actually the only thing I was vaguely spoiled for before I watched the show, because my sister had started the show before me, and I’d seen a couple things via her blog before I ever planned on watching it myself - I knew that he’d gotten the eye from a friend who died, but I didn’t know under what circumstances or the details of how the eye transfer went down.  I didn’t actually mind this spoiler, though, because it added so much resonance to every time I saw him use his sharingan and it helped shape the way I was interpreting him in the early days, before I knew the rest of his history.  But after I started watching the show, I completely isolated myself online so I wouldn’t learn anything else.  (For me, spoilers are more than “what happens next” - I also really don’t like hearing people say “oh, that season was bad” or “the writers failed at XYZ” etc etc - I just don’t like having my expectations shaped in that way; I prefer to experience things on my own.  So I was really careful to learn NOTHING about Naruto online, and people like @dreamersscape were incredibly considerate and amazing about talking to me about the show without revealing anything like that.)
Re: “how far are you in the show right now” - I’m done!  My sister and I finished it together a little less than a month ago.  And yes, I have read the manga, too (I would usually read a few volumes at a time after watching the relevant episodes).  In general, I’ve enjoyed watching the show more, but there are definitely a few scenes in the manga that were left out/changed that I think should have been included/unedited - I haven’t posted about all of them, but some of them are in my naruto manga tag (I think there’s one post in there that has a minor, non-plot-related spoiler for an upcoming scene, but everything else deals with stuff you’ve already watched.)  On the other hand, there are “filler” arcs in the anime that I actually think are essential to the story and that I consider part of my personal canon (though there are certainly nonsense filler arcs, too) - so in general, I take a comic book reader’s approach to the manga/anime canon question (aka the “take what you like and leave the rest” perspective) - I’ve consumed both versions, and I accept the parts from each of them that I consider to be well-constructed, in-character, and consistent with the story’s previously established narrative and themes.)
Re: rewatching - yes, I do sometimes go back to rewatch episodes for a variety of reasons - sometimes because I’m making a gifset, or sometimes if I want to check things while I’m typing up various thoughts.  There’s also one season that I’ve already rewatched in its entirety because I enjoyed it so much.  I’d like to rewatch the entire show at some point - it’s going to be such a different experience watching it knowing everything I know now!
The constant urge of wanting to talk to people about it and find more content on the internet but also the fear of being spoiled randomly on literally any social media platform😭 My little brother has been watching the show for the first time too, but he doesn’t really like to discuss it or talk much about it.
I totally understand this feeling!  That’s how I felt when I first started watching - I was lucky in that I’m roommates with my sister @padmerrie, and she gets just as invested in fictional universes as I do, so we talk about Naruto a lot (she’s both a fic writer and a fanartist, so we get to geek out together all the time).  And, partway through my watch, I was lucky enough to meet @dreamersscape, who was watching for the first time just like me and whom I really vibed with, so we were able to be outlets for each other’s enthusiasm.  But other than that, I avoided the wider internet and stayed inside the bubble of my own blog, specifically to avoid hearing things about the show.  
If you've gotten up to approximately episode 330, then anything prior to April 2021 should be spoiler-safe for you to browse in my archive.  And, yes, you’re totally welcome to come talk to me about Naruto anytime!  I’ll give you a heads-up that I’m usually better about answering asks than I am with the messaging function (which I suppose makes sense, given that offline I’m bad at texting but good at email XD ), so feel free to pop in for discussion anytime! 😊

Happy winter solstice 🤍 It feels so good to know that the darkest time is coming to an end. The gorgeous dress was gifted to me by @femkit and it is probably the comfiest dress I have. It is so beautiful and flowy and so incredibly soft at the same time, I am very much in love! #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmcTcvbLT7Z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The time of frozen flowers has come and passed and I am still admiring the beautiful photos from them while waiting for the current snowstorm to pass and give way to a beautiful white and even winterlandscape 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #macrotastic #macro_love #ig_macro #topmacro #vscomacro #pearlsofbokeh #happy_life_captures #natures_lights (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl_5FgKL9Sw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The bright, foggy, frosty mornings have passed and made room for the growing darkness of winter. And while I enjoy the coziness of December, I already long for the light to return 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature (på/i Västernorrland County) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClrXE3mL_PP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Mornings have become dark now and I am rarely at home to see them. When I go up for work it's still dark and as it happens the weekends lately have been cloudy and gloomy but without this beautiful fog. Since the temperatures have dropped this week, ice has started to cover the lake quicker than I thought and even the river is carrying big pieces of ice, that will soon get stuck in eachother and cover the river in ice as well. Each winter I am amazed at the thought that it will take at least 5, if not 6 months until I see free water again on the lake, since it usually takes until at least April for waterbodies to get freed from the ice covering them. With the ice came also some pulvery snow and everything looks so beautiful covered in white, I hope the snow has come to stay. #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #mywhimsicalnovember (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClJ6ZQ2ruwR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Chasing the fog is the most reasonable thing to do in November - at least in those rare moments not spent cuddling at home while hiding from the ever-growing darkness 🤍 The gorgeous red dress was gifted to me by @femkit 🥰 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #littlewoodlandwhimsies #savouringtheseasons #wanderingtales #mywhimsicalnovember (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck9FL7_rugB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Lately we have had an incredible increase in northern light activities and each and every time we had a thick layer of clouds covering the sky. It has been difficult lately to cope with the darkness, when days are shrinking down to just a few hours and the sun hardly rises higher than maybe a quarter of the sky. We have had so much cloudy weather and it hardly got bright during the day, while we haven't either been rewarded with some stars at night, due to the same thick layer of clouds. I absolutely love living in the north, but when the weather is as rainy as it has been recently, it is difficult to deal with the darkness. Autumn so far has been exceptionally warm as well, so frosty days have been a rare sight and snow hasn't come yet, though the forecast predicted some to come later this week. I am hoping for more sunny days in the future or at least some clear nights to finally see the stars again 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #stargazing #starphotography #auroraborealis #aurora_borealis #heart_imprint #norrsken #northernlights #northern_lights #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #mywhimsicalnovember (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CktgVb0rIIb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The beauty this fall is extraordinary and the last few days especially. When I took these photos the water was still lower, but now after some rain the levels in the lake and river have risen and have flooded the ground around the tree I was standing under. Today a thin layer of ice covered the majority of the lake. It looked so beautiful and delicate and I enjoy every day we get to see this kind of beauty 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #littlewoodlandwhimsies #savouringtheseasons #wanderingtales #doortomywonderland #natures_lights #sheisthewild (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkbhpbcLWEm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Days are turning colder and even though we still have plus degrees during the days, the last few days frost stayed on the ground in shady and North facing spaces in our garden. We had a wonderful weekend, helping a friend move and spending today in the garden, raking leaves and changing tyres on our cars. I love this cozy time of the year, and even though it saddens me to have less daylight to spend in the garden, I can't help but look forward to the dark and cozy winter months. Last year, during a few weeks from mid December to the beginning of January, the sun didn't reach our house, as the hills around the valley were casting such big shadows in the sun's shallow course. I wonder what this second winter in the valley will be and am already looking forward to next year's gardening season. The beautiful red dress was gifted to me by @femkit and it was perfect for enjoying this beautiful October morning out with the cats 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #femkit (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkEP40SLnVI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Weeks are passing by so quickly now and the colorful trees have mostly turned empty. It feels weird seeing them bare again, which they will be for more than half a year from now! Today the sunlight was shining so beautifully through the empty branches and I took in every last sunray and hope that they won't be too rare this winter. In the mornings it gets darker and darker and soon it will be dark when we get up for work and already by the time we get home. Living in the north is beautiful in so many ways, but brings with it all kinds of challenges as well and I love being so familiar with it by now that I can prepare for winter's hardships both mentally and physically.

I love this time of year with days getting so short and the afternoons growing darker. It's so cozy and Tord and I spent the evening with a long walk and getting some pizza for dinner. Clouds are still covering the sky most of the time and hardly ever give way to the beautiful stars and northern lights at night. Even though I love this cozy dark weather I am longing for some more clear skies 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjV4hC7LvHV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ohhh the season is changing so quickly and while the trees are still so colorful, they are losing leaves one by one, quicker than I can follow. I love these intense changes between days and I long for the first snow to fall and winter to come 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #littlewoodlandwhimsies #savouringtheseasons #wanderingtales #doortomywonderland #sheisthewild #advancedselfie #findmeoutside (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjQw1rLLwqY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A layer of clouds has been lying over the landscape for over a week now and when it finally gave way to the blue sky and some faint autumn sunrays, everything had turned golden 🤍🍂 It has been some intense weeks with little to no time for social media and I hope calmer times lie ahead 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #littlewoodlandwhimsies #savouringtheseasons #wanderingtales #doortomywonderland #natures_lights #sheisthewild #advancedselfie (at Västernorrland County) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjI5OgGDzP-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Quicker than I expected has autumn taken over. The picture below this one in my feed (so 3 posts ago) was taken in the exact same spot but a few months prior. Misty bright nights have turned dark and clear and instead the mornings are foggy now carrying the mystical feeling of this season of change. Last veggies can be harvested from the garden like carrots and cabbage and I make sure to take seeds from everything that I liked to try and grow more of it next year. Today Tord and I took a pause from all the work around the house and garden and went on a little adventure in the forest instead. We hiked a bit and picked some mushrooms and concluded the day with dinner at a restaurant that we used to visit sometimes when Tord still lived in his apartment in town. As I am writing this we are on our way back home to spend a cozy evening with the cats. Since I know that some of you reading this are living in very different parts of the world I am curious to know if autumn has arrived for you yet? 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #littlewoodlandwhimsies #savouringtheseasons #wanderingtales #doortomywonderland #natures_lights #sheisthewild #advancedselfie (på/i Västernorrland County) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci5VZHytcx3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

More and more plants in our garden are turning into different shades of yellow, orange red and brown and it looks so beautiful! The berries have been ripe for quite some time now and we are able to make some last harvests after this very short growing season. I spent the weekend redoing my office and I am so happy with how it turned out. It's still a mess of tools and screws and paint brushes but I can't wait for everything to be clean and done. Tonight Tord and I are watching the new episodes of The Handmaid's Tale, which we had been looking forward to for a loooong time. It's wonderful how cozy everything has become now that darkness has returned and is chopping away at the days more and more. The river always carries a stream of leaves on the surface and as every year autumn brings with it a feeling of coming home 🤍 #quietinthewild #thequietfolk #nordicwildling #natureforsoul #gowildlyandslow #slowsimplewild #mynaturestory #mybeautifulstories #iamnordic #bpa_nature #myquietbeauty #littlewanderersdiary #seasonaltales #northernsweden #findyourwild #frameoflifestyle #dreamersescape #safenature #safethenature #rusticpages #waysidemagic #thesongofmountains #shyinnature #littlewoodlandwhimsies (på/i Björna) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cisrll4rxyo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
