[futokesgondolok]

Nyár. Gyerekként nagyon vártam ezt az időszakot: iskolai nyári szünet, fagylalt, három havi szabadság, késő estig tartó fentlét és még sorolhatnám. Körülbelül hat éve amióta a sport szerepel az életemben - persze amatőr szinten -, azóta tudom hogy a lehetőségeim ilyenkor korlátozottak. Mármint futás terén. Ilyenkor gondolom sokan felszólalnának, hogy ne panaszkodjak: végre meleg van, jó idő, lehet úszni, strandolni, stb. A kora esti órákban való mozgás nekem kissé megterhelő, ezen jó lenne változtatni, de számomra a reggel sokkal előnyösebb, ám ahhoz korán kell kelni. Nem kifogásokat keresek, hanem kompromisszum kész megoldást. A reggeli futáshoz pedig jó minőségű alvás kellene, nyáron ezt nem igazán lehet kivitelezni, szerintem. Na, de majd dolgozom az ügyön.

In English:

Summer. As a child, I used to look forward to this time of year so much: the school summer break, ice cream, three months of freedom, staying up late into the evening, and I could go on.

For about six years now, ever since sport became part of my life—albeit only at an amateur level—I’ve realized that my opportunities are somewhat limited during this season. At least when it comes to running.

At this point, many people would probably tell me not to complain: after all, the weather is warm, it’s a great time for swimming, going to the beach, and enjoying the outdoors. However, exercising in the early evening is quite demanding for me. I would like to change that, but mornings work much better for me—although that means getting up early.

I’m not looking for excuses; I’m looking for a reasonable compromise. The problem is that morning runs require good-quality sleep, and in summer I don’t really find that easy to achieve. At least that’s how it seems to me. Still, I’ll keep working on it.

This translation keeps the reflective and conversational tone of the original while sounding natural in English.

Welcome here, to whatever this space may become. To the matters that matter — to me, to my friends, and to others.

On-Matters emerged from a desire to go deeper into life's curiosities. The mental places we go when we read, write, run, cook, play, document our surroundings, or simply seek new ways to live. It's about exploring the practices that interest us. This idea was born out of a need to navigate life post-thirty, when the inner world may change more than the outer, or the other way around. Mainly, I had personally for some time missed a place to write something longer than a caption on Instagram. So here we are, with a beginning and a lot of unknowns.

For now the ambition of On-Matters is a platform dedicated to the non-linear, to longing minds, and to our multiple selves.

It's a blog-ish There will be written content by me and others—interviews, short stories, reflections, films, and image diaries. Trial and error is a process as good as any.

It's a meeting place Occasionally, we'll go physical. The internet is great, but meeting like-minded people in physical spaces is even better. Book clubs, running groups, and third spaces are great sources of joy, at least for me. We'll have to explore.

It's collaborative All platforms get more interesting with more voices. So if you feel like sharing or writing something, please get in touch! Regardless, welcome here. All the best, Hanna

All matters

I don’t care about your color on your skin, or if you happen to fall for the wrong gender. I don’t care about your habits, or if you happen to hate meat. All I care about is that you are you, that you get to be you, and the fact that you dare to be you.
