Which animal would you compare yourself to and why?
I would compare myself to this animal (the marten/mår) because we both love climbing and appreciate being alone sometimes, especially in forests. I kind of look a bit slightly alike in appearance too especially when I had very long hair.
I also love reindeer and ravens. They are local animals like the marten is as well. The reindeer are both cute, funny and very important to our Northern culture. The raven is the symbol of intelligent and curious birds, a bit mystical.
I see reindeer in urban settings when I lived somewhere else and the little ones are very cute and funny. Reindeer are herd animals and sometimes people kind of act like herds. It’s also a part of my Sámi heritage, I value reindeer in cultural ways as well as just reindeer being awesome in themselves.
The raven is not only extremely intelligent, it’s also playfull at times. That is a part of my approach to life as a human being.
So that is my answer today, the animal kingdom is vast and diverse. Sometimes we learn a lot just looking out the window and observe nature as it is.
