I'm a Finland-Swede. My ancestors are probably some vikings from the late Iron Age and some actual Swedes in the early Middle Ages. Though, my genetic make-up is definitely Finnish and not Swedish. Finnish-Swedish culture is sometimes a lot different compared to the mainstream Finnish culture.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
