I know I can get criticism due to my associations. However, that is good, because that is when knowledge and history develops. And in particular might become understood or interpreted in a good way. History also needs to be integrated with the grammatical tempus presens. Lately, I have been deeply worried because things are happening in the North part of Sweden, and I think of when the Swedish government in the 1940’s who helped the German military industri with transportations of iron on the railway. This is a part of history that is forgotten, or maybe hidden. The price for this was peace in Sweden, but to the cost of lives in other countries. I cannot understand when I read news papers and see that various memories are celebrated originating from WWII. But no excuse. Yes, I must admit that it makes me concerned about so called “double moral”. This is something that needs to be elaborated on, and it needs a lot of thinking.

It is brighter in the mornings, but it is still possible for snow. When I thought about the industry transportations, I thought of Norway and when I returned to Sweden after living in Norway. This is a photo from 2013 in Stockholm, and the photographer is a friend of mine. At that time, I was about to find friends from old times, and also new friends. I must admit that I am happy, because I have (as usually) met a lot of nice people. Lucky me.

One step forward two steps back. Snow storm today. I could never imagine, but today it started to snow again. Somewhere I know that snow can occur til April, so no thoughts of spring and summer yet. Today I thought a lot about the British pop group The Smiths. Need some more time to listen to them before I can share a song with them. The singer has a unique voice.

Instead I share this song. Very sad, but also with a spirit of lots of faith and hope.

This Sunday is a day for recovery and relaxation. Good that there is sunshine. It has been so dark and cold for such long time. Yesterday, I just had to make one of my summer dinners to look forward. And it helps. Today it actually feels a little more like spring and summer. I must however admit that it is cosy with winter, to light candles etc, but the energy level is a little lower since you rather stay at home than being outdoors in the dark and cold evenings. Today is also time for a cup of tea. What is your favourite tea? I just have an ordinary cup of tea now, but the tea I had some time ago (photo above) is green with fresh honey. One of my own tea moments.
