New Guinea Pig

| This is little C'Lines Wahkan, here he will be called Nobu. Somewhat horrid picture, but pressed of time and he just will not sit quietly. He is very sweet though |

Romantic Langesund
 |
| Old Langesund Bathhotel was built around 1930 as a spa and a meeting place for society |
 |
| Situated close to the sea, naturally, back then having bathhouses for men and women |
 The bath houses had towers to ensure a good view. Over to the women's bathhouses?? The bathhouses were taken by storms twice though, but the owner is considering a rebuild. |
 |
Celebrity guests included Hamsun and Ibsen    I'm not usually into hotels, but here I fell in love   http://www.langesundbad.no/en |

| I'm sorry, but I do not know where this pic came from, it was sent by a friend, but I find it hilarious and quite serious, so here it is. |

The Tyranny of the "Should"
I have come to hate the word should, and I hate very few things. In med school it is used a lot - I should stop sleeping, cram more, be even more responsible. Is is really impossible to see that to help others one should (!) be as rested as possible, be alert without bitterness and a head full of mental fog? Take it from somebody who knows what burnout is after doing something somebody told her she should (!) do for years and years without listening to her heart. Oh, I hate the word should much more than I should (sorry about the pun).
What if you stop judging yourself by terrible unreachable standards, ones that you would (hopefully) never apply to anyone else? 1) What if you start doing things because they are fair, ethical, right and because doing your best is something you want? What if you listen enough to yourself to rest when you are tired? Maybe then one is sentient enough to see what is necessary, ethical and needs to be done?

Onion & Carrot Soup
Fry an onion, a bunch of spring onions, two leeks and 5 cloves of garlic in good olive or canola oil on low heat until tender. Add a broccoli, enough carrots to fill the casserole, some curry and vegetable stock. Boil until tender. Add precooked white beans. Puree with a blander. Makes a nice yellow soup with an energetic taste. Enjoy!

What Not to Do?
And then I may have become a purist. The weekend has been wonderful, Tønsberg and good friends, long walks, a touch of spring, discussions and sun, but also a feeling of life changing. Of course it does, but it still feels like a surprise. Silly, as change is the only thing I think I can count on.
Anyway, my friend is a master chef, but she cooks meat. I know now I can't eat meat, it contributes to too much suffering and the wrong use of resources. Other people must do what they want, but I can't. As long as I have a choice, I will try my best to avoid meat consumption. My body does not like diary and sugar either, so that pretty much sums it up. It has been educational. Thankfully my friends respect my choices. They are a wonderful bunch.
