The young man was brave to stand up against racism, xenophobia and hatred. He paid the ultimate price for his beliefs. This is a sad world we live in.

In the memory of the man speaking against racism
According to the young man´s father, the young man stood up to neo-nazis during a demonstration in Finland a while back. He was knocked down or perhaps beaten up. Allegedly afterwards the neo-nazi group bragged in the social media about ´teaching (the man) a lesson´. The young man died a couple of days due to brain hemorrage, according to his father.

My toe in the scheme of things
When I said out loud that I am really stressed, half of it went away.
I wish I could go for a walk in the bush but I can't. I fractured my toe on Monday, hence low mobility.
Now I have to tackle the other half.
In the meanwhile in the bush... Flowers!

Nuclear issues such as daisies
I am reading Henning Mankell's Quicksand. He has already left Earth. He wrote about Onkalo, the cavern place where Finland is going to store nuclear waste for the next 100 000 years.
Here, South Australia will vote whether they want to have nuclear waste buried at their backyard. Aaahh, it would bring so much money! Think about the money! 100 billion dollars in 120 years! How happy we would become with all that money!
I am just sick of thinking of money, nuclear power and the waste problem. My antidote is to take pictures of flowers. Here is one. These look like daisies swaying in the wind.
Nothing stays the same. Everything is in flux. Even Earth comes and then goes.

Pink balls in the wind
It is spring again. This picture is from last week's bush walk.
