This is me and Anne Lise out walking in the "mountains" of Lyngdal, where i live now with my parents. I was lucky to have her over last week for a few days. We met when both of us worked at Madagascar, she for the Peace corpse and me for NMS. After returning to Norway we have kept in touch and then all the fantastic memories from the island in our hearts come alive again:)When we meet up we try to go for a walk and get some fresh air. So, even though the rain was pouring and the wind led the rain in all directions, we got dressed and went out.
It feels great to be outside when the weather is bad, as long as you have good shoes and don't get wet. We walked quite quickly for almost two hours, it was great! We only met two other people, it almost felt like we were in the middle of a beautiful nowhere for a while:)
When being outdoors, i always think of this passage:
"When I consider the heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
what is man that you are
mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?"
