Fishing, together................

Being together.

Listening to the news.Questions and tears.

Why?

How?

Being together is most important right now.

I, Terje, Ingrid and Marta here at the cabin. Speaking with my parents, with the boys on the phone.

The close family.

Then there is the sympathy from the word. To know that you care. To know that you pray.

Emails, facebook messages, blog comments...........they keep on filling my mailbox. They give comfort. They tell that the world still believe, in love, in beauty.

No one mention revenge. I am thankful for that!

One of the emails which came into my mailbox last night when I was sitting out on the cabin terrace, wrapping myself in the last light of the Nordic summer night was from a person I knew 15 years ago....when computer and www was still completely new to me:

I am not sure I have the right person or not,did you belong to the best friends quilt group?

             I remember you speaking of Norway are you from there and how are you after everything

             that just happened?

This email is one of so many.

THANK YOU!

More than 80 young people brutally shot.

Others killed by a bomb in the center of Oslo.

Thank you for keeping Norway and its people close to your heart these days.
