We see you now

The 22 of July has passed and it's one year since the bomb in Oslo and the shooting at Utøya. There was a beautiful memorial concert in Oslo with many beautiful poems, interviews, songs and photos. Bano's sister was one of the survivors who were interviewed. It was rough to see her. They look so much alike. Lara was really brave and I just could not help the tears filling up. We sat in front of the TV the whole family plus Connor and Tor Egil. It was really good having Connor's arms around me. A lot of songs had been made for this occasion. I liked most of them but the one that stuck out the most for me was Vi ser dere nå (we see you now) from deLillos.


Så mange uskyldige
blir drept i en krig,
for oss så utydelige
i en tall-statistikk.


Vakre og sterke,

vi ser dere nå.
Hver dag kan vi merke
at vi ikke kan forstå
