// S I L E N C E //

Slow motion
The air is hot and thick
I want to fill a jar with it
and save it for a winter-day

My mind and body has been resting
Loading
Filled with wonderful moments
I´m blessed to have my two sweet girls and Mr. G
I can´t compare it
It´s endless love

Then
Tradgedy struck
Not me privat
But still so hurtfull
Words felt and still feels meaningless

"If one man can show so much hate, imagine how much love we all can show together"
- Helle Gannestad -
 
Though my heart aces
I´ve never been prouder of my country
How we manage to drown hate
with love
How we stick together

I was so relieved to read this post. I was concerned that you may have been personally affected. I have been impressed by your country's dignity during the past week.
I check your blog daily, it is always beautiful.

You should be very proud of your country and your folk. Life is so unfair, but still we have to keep fighting for fairness.
Beautiful words.

I'm one of your number one fans (you must have thousands of number one fans! ;)) and I've been thinking of your absence. Thankfully, everything's fine with you and your family. And everything will be fine with norwegian people as well - you are an example to the rest of the world. You teach us how to respect one another, how to live peacefully and in harmony. Please do not change the way you are! It's not because of someone crazy that the rest of the people must change. Love from Portugal, Susana

Nydelige ord! Jeg tror ikke at jeg noensinne har følt slikt samhold og kjærlighet til folket vårt:)

From across the world, people grieved for Norway and its children (as I did). But indeed you and your countrymen have so much to be proud of. This is such a simple tribute that you gave but it is wonderfully heartfelt.

A beautiful service today. I think all of Europe was thinking of Norway and what happened today.

Like anonymous, I too was relieved to see you post again - feeling nervous that we hadn't heard from you after the awful tragedy. But you said it beautifully and left us with a lovely and positive note. xoxo

Like many above I was very relieved to see this post and to know that you and your loved ones are safe. Such terrible events... may your country heal quickly and carry on just as your were with a stronger resolve. Love xxx
