A poem

A footbridge carries
over troubled waters and soft tufts.

Strings of water drops
glitters in the corner of my eye.

Sun and cats play.
Steps carry me
into open waters.

The sun fertilizes
every moist and warm bog.

Your touch
made me linger and stay.

Hello Out there
My name is Göran Stille and I live in Stockholm, Sweden. This is my first try when it comes to opening a blog and writing in it.
I did assign a major part of my life to raise a family and to comply with standard patterns of values and behavior. I did reasonably well at school and university. I even reached an established position in a research environment. I acted on dominant codes of behavior in the technical and scientific environment. Objectivity and formal knowledge was mandatory. I became rather ambitious.
However, there was something missing. Along my way some key events occurred. I reacted and the result is a need to change the way I live my life. Not just in terms of ideas and and talking about it. I wanted action and results. And according to my own judgements my efforts is finally starting to pay off. But it did take some time, 30 years (!).
I think I have been writing a lot during my life. Mostly technical and scientific stuff. But lately I do move over to fiction and essay. In summary I think I have produced about 600 000 words during 2014. Most of these have been written in the Swedish language and in documents hided for the public. But doing so I came to long for something else. I think I need some human being in the other end: a listener, reader or partner.

Someone reacting both to my writings

and to me trying out my own path into writing.

First I need to act carefully and listen to when the inner voice is myself speaking. Second I do need to listen when others try to reach me. So now I take my first steps into blogging. We will see how this works and what will come out of it.
