The topic on everyone's mind now is Norway. Of course I am as shocked as the rest of the world and also -I gotta admit- a little scared. Norway is a neighboring country to Finland and having something that awful happen that close is just... terrifying. I went to a theme park yesterday and they had tightened the security there, too. They checked our bags and there were more security staff present than usually. Frankly I felt more unsafe than safe. I started thinking about how a theme park full of people would be a great target for some sick bastard...
The media's full of Norway but sadly, in a few weeks it's all forgotten. The news might pop up again at some point but in a month's time there are new stories to tell and what happened last Friday will be but a vague memory in everyone's mind except for the people who lost their loved ones. My heart and prayers go out to them. I cried today when I was reading about how everything happened and what made it more worse was that the amount of sorrow I felt was absolutely nothing compared to the one of devastated parents, sisters, brothers and friends of those who were killed.
When something like this happens I get the need to discuss it with everyone. It's a part of dealing with it even though it makes me anxious. But whatever makes you feel better in a time like this, make it happen. We never know what tomorrow might bring.
Thinking of you<3
