As I wrote, I have been dedicated to work, more than usually, because I think it is serious with the Corona virus. It is even more important now to stay professional to help as much as possible. But you also need to relax so it was very nice to see sweetie and cutie last weekend. I would like to go running, but I am more into walking. I have had my bicycle to service. There was a time when I always went bicycling, but I was hit by a car, and after that I felt lucky that I wasn’t injured. Bicycles are also attractive for thefts. But what can you do?

The international arena has been rather calm, but a bomb exploded recently in Beirut. The Corona virus has hampered some conflicts in the world but it is now a catastrophe in Lebanon. President Macron is already there. Let’s continue to keep a good spirit. To stay calm and day by day get closer to a clinically available vaccin.

We are in the beginning of August. Still social distancing and hand washing. I also sometimes use a medical face mask. I know it doesn’t protect 100%, but it is a reminder of distancing. It is a strange time era, but I am impressed that we have been able to adjust to the situation. I have been very devoted and also focused on work since I have been reminded of the time when I worked during the Swine flu. At that time we had Tamiflu®. Now we can only trust dedicated and skilled medical doctors with hands on knowledge.

This is serious. But I also understand that people want to relax. It is summertime and vacations. Since I am moving, it felt good to return to the home were I grew up this weekend. Sweetie (Lady) and Cutie (Molly) were in perfect shape. Molly keeps Lady busy which makes her very sporty. We went for a walk and they found blueberries.

I miss sweetie and cutie. I went for a long walk today but no dogs. I know that they have a good time in the countryside – eating fresh blueberries in the forest. I made a nice lunch with pasta, fish and sallad after walking. Still reading about healthy food. To change some shopping habits. More ecological food. But ecological baking powder, is that possible?

Little life. No travelling. Only walks. Home made food. Delicious food. Fresh fruit. Vitamins. Swedish tomatoes. Mediterranean life in Scandinavia. The Swedish vegetables being harvested, filled with so much energy. More walks. Recovery. Muscle pain. Stretch. Music. Life goes on.

Corona summer.

It is so nice that it is summer. I enjoy. I have had a day off and that means exercise of some kind. Must say that I love sports. I have lost some strength, but I feel that I can catch it up. I have changed running for walking instead. Don’t feel for running now during Corona virus time. It is beautiful to walk by the water in Stockholm. After training, I made my own sports mini bars this evening. Very tasty, and I think I will put some chocolate on them. Fresh and healthy!

Pharmaceutical companies are working a lot on a mRNA vaccine to prevent COVID-19. I really hope that they carefully will choose a proper candidate. I still do not feel comfortable since the situation is not under control. You have to think of protecting yourself. But, by doing that you also protect your fellow beings.

However, it is a very nice summer. Sometimes sunny, and sometimes rainy. Good for berries, fruit and mushrooms. This morning I thought that I should play a summer song. It is tricky to find an appropriate song due to the current situation. Bob Dylan’s “Blowin´ in the wind” feels good now.

Summertime is time for philosophy, because you have the time and it is easier to think in a more relaxed state. I thought of intuition today. Or maybe the so called gut feeling you should trust, or even not trust in some cases. I remember I listened to a summer radio program where a Swedish 🇸🇪military of some kind had been stationed in Bosnia-Herzegovina 🇧🇦. They were a group of a few persons and they were sent to a deserted town for patrol. It was empty. Very quiet, and suddenly one of them had a feeling that they should leave. Something felt wrong but he did not know what. And they did right. Ten minutes later a bomb exploded. Afterwards, he remembered that he had scented something in the air reminding him of explosives. That is intuition. Everything you have experienced is a memory. With a possitive or negative value, and that helps you to make unconscious decisions. For survival. The brain reward system is somehow connected to these decisions.

Interesting, don’t you agree? Or what is your opinion on intuition?
