Weekly statistics – autumn light, morning dips, and pausing to see clearly – this past week has been filled with soft autumn light, refreshing morning swims, and many small encounters with you, my readers. In addition, both the Swedish and English texts have continued to find new paths out into the world, as if the words themselves want to bathe in new lakes of readers.
Behind the scenes, the statistics show that direct visits and social media keep the blog moving forward. It feels as though more and more people already know the way here – as if malix.se has become a recurring morning coffee for the soul. Read more weekly statistics posts here »
Pausing – to Become More True to Ourselves
I believe we need to pause in order to truly meet both the world and ourselves. Living here and now makes us more alive. When we slow down, we also start to notice the small details that otherwise rush by. It’s easy not to see the trees because the forest stands in the way, but when we step closer we suddenly notice the squirrel, the rough bark of the trunks, and the shifting colors.
It’s the same with people. When we dare to pause and listen – not only to the words but also to the tones and the pauses – we begin to truly see the person in front of us. And if we take it a step further and take responsibility for what we ourselves send out, for our thoughts and feelings, then we begin to shine. We find care, personal responsibility, and the courage to look ourselves in the mirror.
This is what I have learned during the past week. What have you learned?
AHA – Between the Lines
This is about more than numbers. It is also a story of how stillness becomes an inner compass. Morning dips, gratitude exercises, and writing are all ways to pause and choose a direction – small acts that quietly shape daily life.
Your Voice: Between the Lines
This week reflects a longing for balance and truth. The texts resonate with those seeking stillness in everyday life – and you, the reader, carry the same longing. When I see how you find your way here, it feels like a conversation that continues even after I close my computer.
Reflection
Something happens when we pause. We begin to sense the subtle color changes in our own inner landscape. There, in the quiet spaces, lies perhaps the most vibrant part of life – the one we can’t see when rushing past.
Thank You for Visiting
Thank you for coming here, for reading, sharing, and sometimes leaving a comment. Your visits keep the blog alive and give direction to the words. You are an essential part of this growing conversation.
A Thought for the Road
Carry a moment of stillness in your pocket today. Perhaps three deep breaths at the kitchen window are enough. In that small pause, the biggest things often unfold.

Questions for You
What does your own pause-and-breathe moment look like? Is there a place or time where you see the world – and yourself – a little more clearly? And would you be interested in a monthly newsletter from me, with reflections, small stories, and links to the week’s posts?
Weekly statistics malix.se September 2025 become much more than numbers. They show where stillness and understanding find a home, and they remind me that what truly matters is not upward-pointing graphs but words that stay in the reader’s heart.
Moreover, Thursdays have therefore become my day to pause and notice how the words settle. Consequently, I no longer look at numbers merely for their own sake. Instead, I listen for what they tell me about you who read and about how the blog keeps growing together with us.
What the Week Whispers
This week’s weekly statistics malix.se September 2025 are therefore more like a story than a report. The figures show that many of you were drawn to everyday small wonders – the moon and the eclipse – as well as to reflections on ADHD and family life. This clearly says something about us: we long for both stillness and understanding, for words that hold both starlit skies and the kitchen table.

The Stillness that Carries the Story
Perhaps it is exactly this stillness and understanding that is closest to my heart, because that is where my longing lives. Yet it is often difficult to reach. Those quiet times when everything slows down give me space to stop and reflect. Maybe such moments are what we humans need more of. These small moments may not seem important at first; however, when we truly reflect on them, they reveal an undertone of meaning and, perhaps, an answer. Does that sound vague? Right now I may not even see the whole answer myself, yet I feel it is there.
When I compare this with the so-called elite blogs, the difference becomes obvious. They often chase graphs that point sharply upward, quick clicks and big numbers. For me it is quite different. I would rather one single reader takes a thought home – something that quietly changes a day – than see the figures shoot sky-high. After all, if just one sentence follows someone through their day, then my text has already done its most important work.
Moreover, I also notice that the English versions attract more readers from abroad, especially from the United States. That makes me happy – not because the reach increases in numbers, but because the words gain a larger space to live in. Nevertheless, it is not the numbers that matter most. Because it is your presence as readers that gives me the warmth to continue. Therefore, sharing this stillness with you feels especially meaningful.
What I Take with Me
I carry with me a reminder:
That small everyday moments are valuable, no matter how many clicks they bring.
That writing in two languages allows stories to meet people I have never met.
That many of you pause for the thoughtful and the slow.
Consequently, this confirms that the blog can remain a place where everyday life can breathe, and where one can simply rest for a while.
Between the Lines
This is more than statistics. In fact, it is a map of relationships – between me and you, between text and thought. I feel a quiet gratitude for writing at a pace where words can take root rather than rush by.
AHA – Between the Lines
What strikes me, as I write and look back on the week, is how easy it is to get caught up in numbers. However, my own aha-moment is that I truly do not want to live according to curves that point ever upward. What makes me happy is when someone tells me that a single sentence stayed with them, offering a thought or comfort. That is where the true value lies – not in charts or statistics but in what touches another person’s heart.
Reflection on Weekly Statistics malix.se September 2025

For me, weekly statistics malix.se September 2025 are a reminder that every line can mean more than a number. When I look back on the week, I am reminded that writing carries its own purpose. Therefore, following the words rather than chasing them brings both me and the reader a deeper calm. And perhaps it is exactly in that stillness that new stories quietly begin.
