A couple of weeks ago I got christmas greetings from Nepal. That is really far away, and from a very fascinating country with its nature and religion. This card has travelled for some weeks before I got it. The stamps are so beautiful so I had to have a photo of it. When I studied at the Department of pharmacology in Gothenburg, I got to know friends from far away and we are still in touch. The internet has developed over decades and that makes communication very rapid and convenient. But, I must admit that I am a bit conservative since I like to get snail mails.

Facebook, Instagram, e-mails, twitter etc etc have completely changed the way we communicate and stay in touch with each other. I thought a little about it, and still do not have a good answer. Need some more time to reflect. But the internet has contributed to world peace. No doubt. Sometimes it is misused, and at that point it can be dangerous. I am sure that there will be more revolutionising inventions. Maybe something for how we eg travel. Some kind of ecological fuel to replace oil. What do you think?

Being with sweetie and cutie gives me so much energy. They are always happy. Molly is sometimes a little too enthusiastic, so my sweetie needs some time of her own. Private time. She has high integrity and clearly declares to Molly if there is anything wrong. They are best friends, and it is fun to see that they stay together all the time. Molly runs so fast. We have so far only been on walks, but in time she will go running with me.

I was so glad to see them last Friday. And they were thrilled to see me, because they knew I would take them for walks!

Cheers

This headline is heavy, but I like it. When I am in the countryside there is little light so you can easily see the stars. Last evening I think I saw a planet, I don’t know which one. Rather big and bright. Not red. Could not have been a star or a plane. It is now a long time ago since I saw a comet. I like them a lot, because often you can see them in the sky for weeks. And it is so sad when they disappear. Do you remember the comet Hale-Bopp? I wonder what next comet will be like. When I was in Italy this summer, they talked a lot about the stars, mythologies etc.

Languages are still very fascinating, and I am not bored even though I have spent so much time studying. I understand some Spanish but would very much like to learn more. Italian is beautiful to listen to. I don’t understand much, but I do like the “melody”. I found this French little song that I share. Toi et moi.

It is in the beginning of February and usually it is snow and skiing time. But not. It is warm, no snow and but sunshine. I have stayed in the countryside this weekend, and I have had time for both running and walking. Normally when it is cold there are no ticks, but now Molly has had her first tick, so she has to start to take anti-tick medicin. Molly runs so fast and she plays a lot with Lady. She is an action dog. Thought of this song for Molly.

Sometimes I cannot hold my horses and do nothing but write. I get very upset when I see things that are no good and there is no change. Over years, I have learnt that I can notice things that nobody else do. Observe patterns. Find simple explanations to things that are complicated. The nightly bombings have provoked me, because everybody accept that it is part of normal life today. Furthermore, the Australian coalas have totally broken my heart. They are so adorable and I hope they get first aid.

Every day I see so many sweet dogs and they cheer me up. They remind me of all the nice and cute dogs I met in Italy this summer. Tomorrow is the day of Europe. Some time ago Emmanuel Macron said “To our British friends: with Brexit you are leaving the EU, but you are not leaving Europe. You remain by our side, and we remain by yours”. Maybe that is why I thought of Italy today, since Rome and Paris are so intimately connected from a historic, European perspective. I found this beautiful Italian song with Federica Carta. Enjoy your weekend. I will, because I will see sweetie and cutie and they will take me for walks!
