  • Medicine balls 💊

    So many difficult things are happening in the world right now. In these times, it is nice to go into my little training bubble. Sit-ups with imaginary medicine balls and leaders who say: “add more weights – if you fail, you just take it off”. And good music to go with it!

    The Revolutionary Guard headquarters in Tehran was destroyed in Iran. Martyrdom is sacred in the Middle East. The large crowd leads. A mindset that I will never really understand, but which is very important in this context. I remember Lebanon to get a perspective. An Iranian ship was sunk by the American Marines very close to my friend´s Sri Lanka 🇱🇰.

    No democratic opposition has been able to take over naturally. Iran now lives in a polarized society with different wills. Interestingly, France, the UK, and Germany immediately showed that they support the USA. This is on a level that we ordinary people do not know, but the military intelligence service is one step ahead without us knowing. Similar to when a lot of countries knew that Ukraine would be attacked by Russia long in advance. What Sweden’s intelligence service does is secret.

    My other little bubble is my thought bubble. I am currently writing about how monoaminergic transmission inspired me to write my book, ´Generations´. The theme of ´Generations´was the opposite of war, much like this song to my American 🇺🇸  family who fancy Paris. Also, Dogma-Denmark 🇩🇰 inspired, I think. I am learning Spanish right now, similar to this, with Duolingo 🇪🇸.

    No matter nationality, I believe we share universal human values such as music. Everybody understands music.

    Sometimes we feel that political leaders are wrong, such as von der Leyen, Putin, Trump, and Zelensky. We obey to conform to order.

    I have always loved to move my body. Running, dancing, working out muscles, etc. A feeling of freedom – probably. Last Sunday I went to my usual Body Pump training. The lights were off even though there were people present. I turned on the light. A few minutes later, the leader arrived. The electrical power cord was gone. No music. We continued with sound only from a cellular phone in a big exercise hall.

    We are in the fasting month, and we say welcome to Ramadan. I usually have Modifast® now and then for a month during fasting time. Good for me! I just heard from Nadia that we are waiting for the right moment to start. Ramadan starts on Thursday or Friday, depending on the moon.

    To my American family 🇺🇸, with vibes from London 🇬🇧:

  • Two weeks after London 🇬🇧

    What could be more appropriate than Emily Brontë’s “Wuthering Heights (1847)”? Almost two centuries ago, and today, an exciting film adaptation of her literary classic. The same feelings then as now; with love, hate, envy, life, evil, and sudden death (see below).

    I love historical costume movies.

    Fantastic photo with wonderful classical music. Similar to the piano, which evokes feelings for the interplay of drama and action in a silent movie. Beautiful colours and contrasts like those of the artists Matisse, Picasso, and Chagall, whom I have followed during 2025.

    Biological reward systems that are reflected in the humanities.

    I have studied ‘cinema (film science)’ in France and was then taught about the development of the art of film. Something that led to this Dogma-Denmark-inspired diary. The film ‘The Party’ was directed by Thomas Vinterberg in 1998. Also, all my photos that I call Dogma photos. The camera in hand, with spontaneous photos.

    It was Valentine’s Day this weekend, and I took the opportunity to think a little more about my heart. Again, I follow my pulse, and yesterday it was tough spinning intervals that made my face as pink as my t-shirt. When I started taking Levaxin® for my thyroid, my max heart rate increased. Now I need to test again, and I’m guessing it is down to 190. How do you take care of your heart?
